Notes: Interns work with two supervisors/mentors, one of which worked for decades as a top-level editor at The Jerusalem Post.  Interns may also learn from various professionals in the journalism field.  This is a ‘virtual’ internship, which means all interns will work from campus.  There is a mandatory online meeting once a week with the two supervisors and the rest of the team.  Each intern is given individual attention by both supervisors, who encourage interns to contact them freely and often.

Our interns’ articles are often reprinted in The Jerusalem Post, among other publications.

Interning for Israel Campus Beat is truly and excellent experience and we would be happy to refer you to any of our current or past reporters.

Seattle Film Institute?s Spring Open House and FREE Workshops ? Saturday,
April 7.
 
The Seattle Film Institute features a hands-on education and practical
experience that provide the groundwork for professional careers.  Students
receive a real world education from a faculty anchored by film industry
professionals. SFI offers professional certificate programs in all aspects
of filmmaking, graduate degrees with an MA in Producing for Film and an MFA
in Filmmaking, undergraduate degree options (AA and BA), and continuing
education programs in filmmaking, screenwriting, digital video, producing,
directing, documentary filmmaking and film history ? as well as a Summer
Teen Filmmaking Program.  
 
Join us Saturday, April 7, for our Spring Open House ? a great opportunity
to see the school, meet faculty members and prospective students, view
student work and learn about all our programs.  
 
The Open House runs 11 AM ? 1 PM and is immediately preceded by two FREE
WORKSHOPS - a production workshop: Hardware Store Movie Lighting, and a
screenwriting workshop: The Power of Metaphors; both starting at 9:30 AM.
 
We?re located at 1709 23rd Avenue, Seattle WA 98122 (map:

Highlights:
 
Seattle Film Institute
OPEN HOUSE AND FREE WORKSHOPS
Saturday, April 7
 
FREE WORKSHOPS 9:30am-11:00am
 
Production Workshop: Hardware Store Movie Lighting
Opening a catalog for pro movie lights gives most new filmmakers a severe
jolt of sticker shock. The low light sensitivity of the latest digital
cameras means that we aren?t force to use expensive 10000-watt (or even 1000
watt) lights anymore. Beautiful results can now be captured with simple
setups you can put together with parts from the hardware store or that you
may even have laying around the house. In this free workshop, you?ll learn
how to make useful light rigs out of everything from shop fluorescents to
Christmas tree lights.
 
Screenwriting Workshop: The Power of Metaphors
Great stories and films employ complex metaphors.  Their various characters,
places, actions, and objects all reflect different aspects of hidden, inner
truths. This hour-and-a-half workshop will identify some of the symbolic,
visual elements used by screenwriters and explore how metaphors are used to
describe something that is unknown by the use of things that are known -
bringing what is abstract into the visible world. Film clips will be used to
show samples of metaphors at work on the screen.
 
OPEN HOUSE 11:00am-1:00pm
 
See the school, meet faculty members and current students, view student work
and learn about our full and part time programs - including graduate and
undergraduate degree options.

April 7.
 
The Seattle Film Institute features a hands-on education and practical
experience that provide the groundwork for professional careers.  Students
receive a real world education from a faculty anchored by film industry
professionals. SFI offers professional certificate programs in all aspects
of filmmaking, graduate degrees with an MA in Producing for Film and an MFA
in Filmmaking, undergraduate degree options (AA and BA), and continuing
education programs in filmmaking, screenwriting, digital video, producing,
directing, documentary filmmaking and film history ? as well as a Summer
Teen Filmmaking Program.  
 
Join us Saturday, April 7, for our Spring Open House ? a great opportunity
to see the school, meet faculty members and prospective students, view
student work and learn about all our programs.  
 
The Open House runs 11 AM ? 1 PM and is immediately preceded by two FREE
WORKSHOPS - a production workshop: Hardware Store Movie Lighting, and a
screenwriting workshop: The Power of Metaphors; both starting at 9:30 AM.
 
We?re located at 1709 23rd Avenue, Seattle WA 98122 (map:

more information visit: http://www.seattlefilminstitute.com/
 
Highlights:
 
Seattle Film Institute
OPEN HOUSE AND FREE WORKSHOPS
Saturday, April 7
 
FREE WORKSHOPS 9:30am-11:00am
 
Production Workshop: Hardware Store Movie Lighting
Opening a catalog for pro movie lights gives most new filmmakers a severe
jolt of sticker shock. The low light sensitivity of the latest digital
cameras means that we aren?t force to use expensive 10000-watt (or even 1000
watt) lights anymore. Beautiful results can now be captured with simple
setups you can put together with parts from the hardware store or that you
may even have laying around the house. In this free workshop, you?ll learn
how to make useful light rigs out of everything from shop fluorescents to
Christmas tree lights.
 
Screenwriting Workshop: The Power of Metaphors
Great stories and films employ complex metaphors.  Their various characters,
places, actions, and objects all reflect different aspects of hidden, inner
truths. This hour-and-a-half workshop will identify some of the symbolic,
visual elements used by screenwriters and explore how metaphors are used to
describe something that is unknown by the use of things that are known -
bringing what is abstract into the visible world. Film clips will be used to
show samples of metaphors at work on the screen.
 
OPEN HOUSE 11:00am-1:00pm
 
See the school, meet faculty members and current students, view student work
and learn about our full and part time programs - including graduate and
undergraduate degree options.

Fair Share Alliance is a non-profit organization that works to provide every American with  a fair shot at a good job, a secure future, and strong voice in our democracy.
 
This summer, we are launching 30 offices across the country to work on 
campaigns promoting clean energy and a fair economy.  As an organization, we work to press local and national governments to implement policies that protect and benefit average citizens through grassroots outreach and coalition building.
 
Right now, we are hiring seniors, undergraduate, and even graduate students 
from across Washington, and specifically at University of Washington, to work as Campaign Directors in our offices.   This is a great opportunity for students to work to solve today's problems, build their resumes, and gain critical experience in public relations and grassroots organizing.

We will be holding first round interviews this week for students interested in 
positions, and are going to be in Seattle next Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for second round interviews.

---------


 
We're facing a huge jobs crisis in this country. While too many Americans are 
struggling to
find work, big corporations like Exxon Mobil are receiving billions in 
government subsidies.
The good news is that we can create jobs rebuilding America's roads and 
bridges, and expanding
clean energy. Big companies like Exxon will spend millions lobbying to stop us, 
but with
elections coming up, grassroots support can make the difference.
 
We are NOW HIRING for offices around the country. We're looking for people who 
work hard,
communicate well, and are committed to positive social change. As a Campaign 
Director, you?ll
be part of building a Fair Share Alliance organization in your community and 
raising the
profile of our issues to make a real impact in the lives of your friends, 
family and
neighbors. To learn more details on particular responsibilities we encourage 
you to fill out
our interest form so we can reach out to you directly with more information.
 
Fair Share Alliance is opening offices in 30 states across the country--it is 
also possible to
apply and interview in Washington for a position in a different state office. 
Please use the
links above or email Leah Farkas at leah@fairsharealliance.org for questions or 
to get started
in the process!

expressed in written, oral, or diagram form. Ability to deal with problems
involving several concrete variables in standardized situations.
 
Physical Demands:
 
While performing the duties of this job, the team member is regularly
required to remain in a static position for extended periods of time and
converse with and communicate with others. The team member is occasionally
required to move about, handle and/or position items. The team member must
occasionally transport or move up to 15 pounds. The team member must be able
to identify objects and be able to communicate in writing.
 
Work Environment:
 
Typical indoor office environment. The noise level in the work environment

We seek qualified undergraduate and graduate tutors to serve as peer tutors - to collaborate with UW students, staff, and faculty on their myriad writing and research projects. Last year, tutors in the OWRC worked with writers from more than 100 departments on campus, representing all colleges -- so when we say we are working hard to build an interdisciplinary staff for next year, we really mean it.
 
Details of the position and hiring process can be found at http://depts.washington.edu/owrc/Hiring2012.html
 
This will be a rolling hiring process, with preference given to earlier applicants; it is well worth applicants' time to submit their materials now, during the break, rather than later in Spring Quarter. Top early-applying candidates will also be given the option of beginning work this Spring and Summer rather than waiting until Early Fall Start (mid-August).
 
Finally, additional preference will be given to candidates from STEM fields and business; recruiting tutors from these fields is a hiring priority for the OWRC, given the writers we work alongside most often.

Seattle Magazine has several opportunities for editorial interns.

Seattle magazine’s interns gain hands-on experience, working closely with top editors in an environment that is creative and collaborative. As an intern, you will be an integral part of the team responsible for producing this premier monthly publication and its website. Enduring enthusiasm, curiosity and a love of the written word are essential prerequisites for the position. You will be called upon regularly to use your excellent verbal communication and research skills. Attention to detail—even a perverse obsession with it—will come in handy.

Interns help us bring up-and-coming trends home to the readers. Observing life in the city, interns are the eyes and ears of the magazine. You will work on a wide range of projects, from the glamorous to the granular. You will become familiar with the varied pace of a magazine’s production schedule, and learn about all that goes into creating a magazine, from start to finish.

No two internships are the same. To some extent, you will be given responsibilities based on your strengths and your initiative. Projects might include (but are not limited to): fact-checking stories, helping with research on major projects, writing short pieces, conducting interviews, attending events, researching story leads, uploading web content, contributing to website blogs and writing online articles.

Seattle magazine interns gain real-world experience, skills and mentoring, and often go on to build successful media careers. Past interns are currently working at Vanity Fair, Travel + Leisure, Lucky magazine, Cosmopolitan, Budget Living, Outside magazine, Seattle Homes and Lifestyles, CityArts, Seattle Health magazine, Daily Candy, Sasquatch Books, Richard Hugo House and the Boise Weekly.

“I recommend this internship to anyone who wants to get experience in the magazine world, and have a great time doing so. One of the best parts is that interns get to experience a little bit of everything…I’ve been given a lot of independence—no one is constantly looking over my shoulder, worried that I won’t do well enough. This has allowed me to take chances and be creative. At the same time, it’s an encouraging environment, and the editors are always available to help. I have really enjoyed my time here, and I feel much more confident about seeking jobs in writing and editing with this professional experience.”

—Shawna Leader, intern, September, 2011–March, 2012

Unpaid internships are available and require a commitment of four hours a day, five days a week for six months. Morning and afternoon shifts are available. We’re now accepting applications for our next openings in April and July, 2012.

To apply, send a completed application (download from our website, seattlemag.com; click on “jobs and internships” at the bottom of the home page) along with a resume and two of your best writing samples to:

leaders and truly be the change they wish to see in the world.
 
Whether you are newly interested in the sustainability and
activism or are already involved on your campus, the Greenpeace

Greenpeace Semester Plan for Independent Study Credit 
**This is a template taken from the documentation used by the University of Vermont.  Please feel free to use this as a guideline for your university or department.**

ENVS 191 / 291 GUIDELINES
	ENVS 191 and ENVS 291 are the Environmental Program's course numbers for independent research, supervised field studies, and internship and practicum projects. ENVS 191 is for activities at the intermediate level; ENVS 291 is for senior level activities. Outlined here is a special format for earning up to 12 total credits of ENVS 191/291 for the Greenpeace Semester designed, taught and evaluated by Greenpeace staff.

ENROLLMENT
	Twelve (12) ENVS credits may be earned for your experience with the Greenpeace Semester. Nine credits is the maximum number of 191 credits that can be earned in a single semester. In order to enroll in up to nine (9) credits of ENVS 191, either Stephanie Kaza or Ibit Getchell must approve a detailed project plan with the sections listed below. It is best, although not mandatory, to submit this plan for approval before you begin the Greenpeace Semester. The ENVS 191/291 credits may be spread over more than one semester, past, present and future.
Credit for up to three (3) credits of ENVS 291 may be granted upon return from Greenpeace Semester and the successful review of evidence of advanced field-based learning experience during the program. (See below under “6. Number of Credits”) You do not need to register for ENVS 291 credit before you go.

PROJECT PLAN 

1. Title and Justification This can simply be “Greenpeace Semester,” although you might want to add a subtitle if you want to emphasize something you will be especially focusing on during your time in the program. Why are you choosing to do this program? What is the importance of the work; how does it relate to your ENVS curriculum?

2. Learning Objectives and Project Goals (Feel free to list in a numbered or bulleted list format.) What do you hope to gain from the Greenpeace Semester? What will you know or be able to do at the end that you don't know or can't do now? What are the specific end products or outcomes intended? In what ways will you know the work is successful?

The Greenpeace Semester syllabus lists many learning objectives and goals for you. Please read through this syllabus and know clearly what lies ahead for you. Attach a copy of the program syllabus to this Plan. Also, consider what you, personally, most keenly hope to learn or gain from the program. What do you intend to be open to learning and doing that may not be part of their syllabus? Be as specific as possible. Think about what the program has outlined for you to experience, and what you know you will be doing during the program. List any “Additional Personal Objectives and/or Project Goals” not outlined in the syllabus for any other accomplishments you intend.

3. Methods - State in detail exactly what you expect to be doing. How is each learning objective and each project goal to be accomplished?

The Greenpeace Semester outlines their methods in their syllabus. List in precise detail any additional methods for any personal learning objectives and project goals you have stated above. We recommend you list your methods directly under each learning objective and project goal so that it’s very clear how you intend to be successful with each.

We ask you to you keep a journal throughout your time in the program where you write short, regular entries about your daily learning and activities. This will help you a great deal when you reflect on your work for your final product(s) and evaluation.

4. Final Product and Evaluation - A final product is necessary that, at the barest minimum, documents the work done. It should clearly demonstrate the degree of achievement of both learning and project goals.

There are many pieces of the Greenpeace Semester experience. Read through your journal and other materials from the program. Distill the important learning you accomplished. In 8-10 typed, double-spaced pages, write about your experience in a way that demonstrates the level of achievement of your learning objectives and the project goals of the program, and any personal learning objectives and project goals you had for yourself. The university catalogue requires this document to be retained by the Environmental Program in your student file.
Greenpeace staff will have bi-weekly check-in and evaluation meetings with you. And at the end of the program you need to meet with them to evaluate the degree of success in meeting your program and personal learning objectives and project goals. Please give an ENVS 191/291 Grade Report (http://www.uvm.edu/~envprog/formslinks/assets/gradereport.pdf) to your Greenpeace Semester Coordinator at that time of your meeting and submit this completed form with your reflective essay to Stephanie Kaza, Environmental Program Director, 153 So. Prospect St., Burlington, VT 05401.
See below for the write-up and evaluation of your three (3) credits of ENVS 291.

5. Time Frame

Include a time plan for all aspects of the 191/291 activity, including dates for meetings with Greenpeace staff, Stephanie Kaza or Ibit Getchell, and the submission of final products, evaluations, and grade.

6. Number of Credits requested and justification

Upon successful completion of the Greenpeace Semester, if a “C” or higher is earned on the program evaluation, a student may earn up to nine (9) credits of ENVS 191.
	Up to three (3) credits of ENVS 291 may be earned if it can be justified that the student accomplished 3 credits worth of “field-based learning experience at the advanced level.” To earn these advanced credits, advanced-level experience must be justified in the final product write-up. In no more than 3 additional typed, double-spaced pages, describe your field-based learning experience at the advanced level and the application of skills, knowledge and experience gained from the program, or elsewhere, in experiences during the 12-week program semester. “Advanced” could mean development of leadership skills, in-depth knowledge in one of the Greenpeace Semester training areas, time invested in training others, etc. “Advanced” should go beyond the introductory level exposure to basic skills, knowledge, and action.

To determine your activity's credit hour worth, compare what was learned and the amount of time spent with the activity to the time associated with typical courses. The minimum expectation is 45 hours of endeavor per credit hour. Determine the number of ENVS 291 credits earned with either Stephanie Kaza or Ibit Getchell.

Invisible Children UW Chapter are holding a screening on April 4th at 7pm (Location still to be decided) for the newest film Kony 2012. 

On April 4th at 7pm (room still to be decided so another email will be sent
out), Invisible Children UW Chapter and the Invisible Children Roadies will
be holding a screening of the newest movie Kony 2012. Merchandise will be
sold at the event and funds will be going to the main Invisible Children
Organization.  
 
What the Club is about:
 
Here at the University of Washington, as students and members of society, it
is our responsibility to make our world a more peaceful place. Our purpose
at the Invisible Children UW Chapter is to fundraise money in order to
support our organization?s ongoing projects end the longest running war in
Africa. At the same time, it is just as important for us to spread the word
of the unremitting crisis occurring. At Invisible Children, we know that our
strongest weapon is our voice.
 
Who Joseph Kony is:
 
Joseph Kony is the figurehead and leader of the LRA (Lord?s Resistance Army),
has continued his brutal methods of terror and control, which were perfected
over decades of insurgency in Uganda. Kony maintains command of the LRA
force through fear and brainwashing. Abductees and even officers fear what
their superiors will do if they escape, and some LRA combatants even believe
that Kony possesses spiritual powers and are told that even in distant
towns, one is not safe from the powers of Kony.
 
What Kony 2012 is about:
?KONY 2012 IS A FILM AND CAMPAIGN BY INVISIBLE CHILDREN THAT AIMS TO MAKE
JOSEPH KONY FAMOUS, NOT TO CELEBRATE HIM, BUT TO RAISE SUPPORT FOR HIS
ARREST AND SET A PRECEDENT FOR INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE.? ?Invisible Children

Highlight Hunter PR and Marketing Internship

Company Overview
Develop your marketing expertise while gaining valuable experience with a Public Relations Internship at Highlight Hunter (http://www.highlighthunter.com), a young Seattle-based tech startup. Highlight Hunter’s mission is to make it easy for people to relive and share the best moments from the activities they love, without technology getting in the way. Our first step towards this mission is an app that helps action sports enthusiasts find the highlights in their videos 8 times faster. It works by having people momentarily cover their camera’s lens after they record a highlight. Our app scans their videos for these bookmarks and creates a 30-second highlight clip for each one. This means they can spend more time creating highlights and less time search for them. You can read more about us on Seattle’s Geekwire.com: http://www.geekwire.com/2012/startup-spotlight-highlight-hunter.

This position will focus on Marketing, Development of Emerging Markets, and Public Relations activities to promote the Highlight Hunter app. We will also focus on prospective client and media research. We are seeking highly motivated and enthusiastic undergraduates who are interested in a public relations and marketing career that hope to engage in projects that focus on creativity and developing vital business skills.  As an intern, you will be making a real contribution to the success and growth of a small business while developing your commercial acumen. This is a perfect environment for someone that is hungry to learn and apply their skills to meet established outcomes.  We are looking for someone who will actively engage in the position; who wants to do more than administrative work. No previous experience is necessary. Passion for action sports is a plus.

Responsibilities
•	Responsible for assisting in the overall strategic planning and execution of online and offline public relations, social media, business development and marketing.

Julie Peterson-Snyder is technical writer for Costco Wholesale. She has 
worked in various documentation departments and writing positions for 
Costco since the early nineties. She is certain her Communication degree 
helped her land her first documentation job with Costco, and it continues 
to apply directly to her work today. She creates content and publishes to 
a handful of her company?s employee intranet sites. Costco is practically 
paperless, creating all of their content for web publication. Julie has 
seen lots of changes over the years, but the skills she learned at the UW, 
such as interviewing subject-matter experts and applying various writing 
styles to that information, still applies today. Deliveries have changed, 
but not the basic process in which documentation products are created.

Seattle Weekly has an immediate opening for a news blogger. Our ideal candidate is not only familiar with deadlines, but motivated by them; has enough reporting chops to ferret out when they're being spun; has a nuanced understanding of how the web works, and how writing for it differs from print; and is unafraid of occasionally offering his or her opinion, not just rehashing the what, where, and whys that can be read elsewhere.

Applicants must have demonstrated writing experience, and a proven ability to make cynical and world-weary editors chuckle, if not laugh outright. Familiarity with online publishing programs and photo editing tools is a plus, though not mandatory since they take about a half hour to master. 

An ideal candidate would not only be able to work and coexist peaceably with other hardheaded writers, but also has the kind of mind that is constantly churning out new ideas to be stress-tested. "Self-starter" is the imperfect way of describing this individual, but it's what we're left with so it'll have to do. 

This is a full-time position, with competitive salary and benefits. Interested and qualified applicants should submit a cover letter, resume, and two or three of their best samples to me, Caleb Hannan, at channan@seattleweekly.com. No phone calls please.

(within 18 months post-graduation);

We require some experience using social media, even if only for personal purposes. If you have online content/accounts, be sure to let us know how to find them. We also seek applicants whom have some experience managing their own time on projects, as we operate virtually. Here a few more concrete details:

?	Requires 15-20 hours per week commitment for at least 10 weeks
?	Credit and no-credit positions are possible, just be specific when you write us
?	You don’t have to be a government guru to apply - but be open to learning a lot!


Working at KAP
KAP's work culture is different than most nonprofits – we’re more like a tech start-up. Our staff works virtually with weekly meetings in downtown Seattle. We value time off and respect the realities of life (cars break down, elders need care, and that thesis won't write itself). Because of the flexibility in our work environment, it's imperative that KAP employees are trustworthy, driven, self-starting and resourceful. A sense of humor always helps, too!


Tinker Time
All positions also include “tinker time”, which is your opportunity to brainstorm new ideas that can be incorporated into our work at KAP. We offer the flexibility to spend up to 20% of your time on tinker time. As ideas take shape, employees are asked to pitch them to the team to discuss its potential and deployment.


How to Apply
Interested applicants should send a short one page cover letter, their resume, and two references to Sarah Schacht at director@knowledgeaspower.org. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. And don’t forget to include any links to content you’d like us to see!

The American Indian Journalism Institute, founded in 2001, is an academic, scholarship and internship program for college students run and underwritten by the Freedom Forum Diversity Institute.

American Indian students often do not consider journalism as a career option, in part because many of their schools lack student newspapers and journalism classes, the most common routes to journalism careers. Without Native Americans on staff, news organizations can produce stereotypical and erroneous coverage of Indian issues and Indian people.

AIJI provides a unique opportunity for Indian students to learn about journalism and consider it as a career, which will help improve newsroom diversity around the country.

For three weeks in June, Native American students learn the craft of journalism through one of several journalism courses taught at the Freedom Forum’s Al Neuharth Media Center, on the University of South Dakota’s Vermillion campus.

Accepted students are placed in an appropriate course based on their experience, interests and previous coursework. Students attend AIJI for free and receive other financial assistance, including room and board during the program and a scholarship/stipend upon completion of the program.

AIJI students also may be eligible for 2 hours of college credit.

After successful completion of the program, top AIJI graduates are hired for paid summer internships as reporters, copy editors, photographers or multimedia journalists with daily newspapers and with The Associated Press. Interns must be licensed drivers and provide their own vehicles.

For inquiries and applications, contact Janine Harris at jharris@freedomforum.org or 605/677-5424.

Magazine Internship Opportunity

Seattle Business magazine is a monthly publication that seeks to educate and enlighten its readers, most of whom are in a management role at a small or midsize business. We are primarily a magazine about movers and shakers throughout Washington state, from large businesses to innovative startups, always looking for boundary-pushing stories on economics, health care, nonprofits and public policy. Our goal is to be the best regional business publication in the country by covering business and the economy with intelligence, depth and timeliness. 

Our internship program is an important part of achieving those goals. Interns at Seattle Business work closely with the editorial team to craft each issue. We practice journalism in its purest form: We want to find out and tell our readers what is really happening, why it is happening and what may happen in the future, and we tell these stories with thorough reporting and compelling writing. 

Responsibilities
As an editorial intern, you are likely to have a memorable experience shaped by your particular strengths and initiative. Typical intern responsibilities include fact-checking all stories with primary sources (we have an established procedure for this, but it does involves a fair amount of phone/email work), writing much of the front “Startup” section of each issue and compiling the business events calendar. Interns are also called upon to write blog posts for the website, develop and research story ideas, attend editorial department brainstorming and planning meetings, conduct interviews, perform other editorial-related clerical work, and write longer stories for the magazine. Interns usually work on a six-month contract for 20 hours per week. A $100 stipend is paid at the end of the internship.

What do you get out of it?
Knowledge, experience and a great set of clips. Specifically, if you are interested in journalism, you will find yourself working both as a writer and editor alongside professionals who will take your improvement to heart. We want to see you develop as a member of our team and undertake more and larger responsibilities. Business journalism, in particular, poses its own distinctive set of challenges, and it is an ideal proving ground for those who like pursuing stories about big ideas that shape the economy of the state and the lives of people who live here. At the heart of every story, however, are people, and you will find yourself talking with many different kinds, some of whom have cool ideas, some of whom might be a bit loopy, but all of whom have an interesting story to tell. That, at the end of the day, is what we’re doing here at Seattle Business: telling interesting stories.

Application Procedure
Send a completed application with your résumé and your best writing samples to:

	John Levesque, managing editor
	Seattle Business magazine
	1518 First Ave. S., Suite 500
	Seattle, WA 98134

You can also e-mail your application to john.levesque@tigeroak.com. If you have further questions, call John at 206.452.2962.

Thursday, February 16th at 2:30pm in UW's Allen Auditorium (in the Allen Library)

In what ways does the food on your plate reflect struggles over individual
and corporate rights, genetic engineering, and international trade? 
 
On Thursday, February 16, the Clowes Center for the Study of Conflict and
Dialogue will screen The Future of Food, a documentary about the complex
issues surrounding the massive changes happening in the food system today. 
In the words of the film?s director, Deborah Koons Garcia,
?(t)his is a film that is not just watched, it's used. It motivates people
to take action, even if it's just voting with their fork. The Future of Food
has already helped influence policy. It's exciting to think that the film
could have a role in creating a healthier future for everyone.?
 
Our guest speaker will be Heather Day, Co-Founder of the Community Alliance
for Global Justice (CAGJ) and UW alumnus.  She will describe some of the
work that CAGJ does to build local, sustainable food practices in Washington
and around the world.  Questions from the audience are encouraged.
Thursday, February 16th at 2:30pm in UW?s Allen Auditorium.
 
The Future of Food is the second installment of the Clowes Center?s
quarterly film/speaker series, ?Rethinking Citizenship, Democracy and
Activism: Local-Global Entanglements.?  Our spring quarter film will be 23rd
and Union.  Directed by Rafael Flores, this docu-drama weaves real
interviews with fictional characters to investigate the 2008 murder of
Degene Berecha in the popular Seattle restaurant ?Philadelphia
Cheese-Steak?.  The film is an ADAPTED story, based on a range of stories by
people acquainted with the victim and convicted murderer.  It is used as a
vehicle to discuss gentrification and the tension between young
African-American men, Ethiopian immigrants and gay couples in Seattle?s
Central District.  Flores will be on hand after the screening for a
discussion period.
Thursday, May 3 at 7:00pm in the Langston Hughes Performing Arts Center.
 
For more information, please see our website:

We look forward to seeing you at the screenings!

Environment Washington is a statewide, citizen-based environmental advocacy
group, working to protect open spaces, protect Puget Sound and protect our
air.  Right now, I?m working to address the growing problem of plastic
pollution in Puget Sound, especially because of the profound impact it has
on marine wildlife, by banning plastic bags.
 
Environment Washington is part of the Environment America federation, a
federation of 29 state-based environmental groups.  Each year, Environment
America hires passionate, talented and committed college graduates to join
our two-year Fellowship Program. 
 
Students hired as fellows with Environment America:
 
?         Plan and run their own campaigns ? for example, in Washington, I
am working to protect Puget Sound marine wildlife by banning plastic bags.
 
 
 
?         Research and identify effective solutions to critical
environmental problems.  Fellows build and mobilize the political power it
takes to make those solutions a reality.
 
 
 
?         Lobby lawmakers; publish opinion pieces in major newspapers and on
key websites; set up and speak at news conferences; organize town hall
meetings and rallies; and run citizen outreach campaigns to educate the
public, build membership and raise money for our work.  And fellows recruit
interns, activists, and staff to work alongside you.
 
 
 
?         Bottom line: Fellows make a real difference.
 
 
 
?        Fellows get the training they need to make that
difference.  Fellows attend classroom-style trainings throughout the year,
and work alongside some of the nation?s top environmental advocates and
organizers, and learn the most through hands-on experience.  
 
 
 
The fellowship is just the beginning.  After just two years of hard work,
fellows have the skills and experience to take on even more leadership here
at Environment America or elsewhere in the environmental community.

620 EIGHTH AVE.
NEW YORK, N.Y. 10018-1405
   
This year the New York Times Student Journalism Institute will celebrate its 10th anniversary. The eager young student journalists who attended in the early years have now gone on to careers at news organizations large and small. Nearly a dozen work at The New York Times; others are at The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Associated Press and Politico, to name just a few.

That’s as much a testimonial to the students as it is to the Institute, which was founded on the belief that giving an opportunity to the brightest aspiring journalists would pay dividends for all of journalism. But while the Institute can provide the opportunity, we must have your help to obtain the students. The decade-long success of the Institute is due to you and others like   you who have made it possible to match great students to a great opportunity. 
We are looking for reporters, copy editors, photographers, designers, Web producers and video journalists. To be   eligible they must be student members of the National Association of Black   Journalists or students enrolled at an HBCU.  

The deadline: Feb. 25. 
The program will be held May 13 through 27.
 
As always, students accepted into the Institute will have all their expenses paid, and will receive a small stipend. It is a cornerstone of the program that no one who has the talent will be denied an opportunity because of lack of financial means.
More information and a look at the work of students at previous Institutes is available at www.nytimes-institute.com.
 
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at (212) 556-1576 or e-  mail me at hecker@nytimes.com.

The Department will be hosting Susan Douglas the week of 13 Feb as this quarter's Stice Lecturer. Dr. Douglas is the Chair of Communication Studies at the University of Michigan and a scholar of many stripes. She is most well-known for her work on gender representations in the media as well as media history and technology.
 
Her visit to campus will involve two large lectures to which everyone is invited. I encourage you to promote both among your undergraduates, and have appended abstracts and attached to this email the posters for her visit.
 
If you would like to have Susan Douglas visit your class or if you'd like some one-on-one time with her (she will have an office here that week), please let me know by this Friday with specifics. We are allocating her time on campus across seven units, and will try to accommodate requests to the best of our ability.
 
Tuesday, 14 Feb, 3:30p in Kane 210
Stice Lecture: "The rise of enlightened sexism: How pop culture took us from girl power to girls gone wild"
 
Today we once again have ?a problem with no name??meaning that millions of young women?the girl power generation?have been told that they can do or be anything, yet they also know their most important task is to be slim, ?hot,? and non-threatening to men. Susan Douglas chronicles the rise of Enlightened Sexism, a new, subtle, sneaky form of sexism that seems to
accept?even celebrate?female achievements on the surface, but is really about repudiating feminism and keeping women, especially young women, in their place. Her book examines the widening gap between the images of women in the media and the everyday lives of girls and women in the United States. NPR called Enlightened Sexism ?brilliant, insightful and funny? and
Publisher?s Weekly described it as ?a sharp-witted polemic against the media?s stereotyping of females and feminism.?
 
Wednesday, 15 Feb, 3:30p in CMU 120
Scheidel Lecture: "Starstruck: The explosion of celebrity journalism and corrosion of the nightly news since 9/11"
 
This lecture will analyze the rise of celebrity culture since the turn of the century and the concomitant decline in international and hard news on television, and place these twin phenomena within the broader context of the aftermath of 9/11. The talk will document these trends, and note especially the gendered and demographic dynamics that have fueled and are reinforced by them. The talk will consider the role of national politics and media consolidation in contributing to this state of affairs, and will also ask whether we are, as a result, experiencing increased ethnocentrism and parochialism in our culture as a result.

The winning individual - or team of up to five people - will be recognized with the $10,000 prize and have the chance to work with mtvU and LexisNexis Legal & Professional to see the idea actualized as a core element of the "mtvU Against Our Will Campaign." For more information on how to enter the "Against Our Will Challenge," which could include proposals for games, SMS-based services and social media widgets, among other tools, please visit http://challenge.againstourwill.org. The "Against Our Will Challenge" is the latest project in a string of successful student-led initiatives at MTV and mtvU, including "My College Dollars," "Darfur is Dyi!
ng," "Pos or Not," "Debt Ski" and "Draw Your Line," which have collectively reached more than 3 million users, resulted in more than 15 million game plays and led to nearly half a million actions taken.
 
mtvU's new initiatives are part of the "mtvU Against Our Will Campaign," which, in partnership with Free the Slaves, Girls Educational and Mentoring Services (GEMS) and Polaris Project, taps into the growing student movement to end modern-day slavery. The campaign makes it easy for young people to take action to help stop one of the greatest human rights atrocities of our time. According to The National Human Trafficking Resource Center (NHTRC) hotline, incidences of sex and labor trafficking have been reported in all 50 states in the U.S. in the last year.
 
As defined under U.S. federal law, victims of human trafficking include children induced into the sex trade, adults age 18 or over who are coerced or forced into commercial sex acts, and anyone forced or deceived into different forms of "labor or services," such as domestic workers held in a home, or farm-workers forced to labor against their will.  Every year, human traffickers generate billions of dollars in profits by victimizing millions of people around the world, and here in the United States. Human trafficking is considered to be one of the fastest growing criminal industries in the world (source:  U.S. Department of Health and Human Services).
 
The "mtvU Against our Will Campaign" was launched in September 2011 at the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting; for more information on the campaign, visit www.mtvU.AgainstOurWill.org or mtvU.com.

Join award-winning authors Bill Dietrich, Thor Hanson, and Judith Roche, 
in a workshop devoted to writing about the environment. Based at the Burke 
Museum, this one-day program will include classroom and field-based 
sessions. Judith, Thor, and Bill bring unique and complementary

and place. Their writing brings in not only plants and animals, but also 
the human inhabitants, past and present, who dwell on the land. In doing 
so, they are forging a new way to look at nature and to develop deeper 
connections to place.
