| The Wellesley College Washington Internship Program provides an opportunity for students to learn about politics and public policy through placements in government offices, political and public interest groups, media organizations, and research and cultural institutions. 18-20 interns will be selected to work in Washington, D.C.for ten weeks during the summer. |

Interns recieve a stipend to help defray living expenses. Housing is also provided for students; all participating interns must live in the housing arranged for them. Interns are required to participate in weekly seminars and other Program activities during the summer. Contacts with Wellesley alumnae are an important part of the Program and each intern will be assigned a mentor from the Washington Wellesley Club. Veteran interns participate in the selection and orientation of new interns the following year. |
| The Wellesley Washington Program is partially supported by gifts from alumnae and friends of the College. We are particularly grateful for the generous support of Isabelle Leeds '47, Sherley Koteen '40, the Bertha S. Adkins '28 Fund, the Anne Quackenbos Fund, the Laurence S. Rockefeller Fund, the Alona Evans Fund, the Marguerite Stitt Church '14 Memorial Stipend, the Ruth Gordon Schapiro Fund, the Jane Bishop '51 Bequest, and the many former interns who have donated to the Program. |
