High Country News, published twice-monthly in Paonia, Colo., is a nonprofit newsmagazine and website “for people who care about the West.” The paper reaches 23,000 subscribers — an estimated 60,000 readers — including grassroots activists, public land managers, tribal officials, government policymakers, educators, students and interested citizens. The website reaches countless more.

The Los Angeles Times has written that High Country News is “the most influential environmental journal in the Mountain West,” and according to Newsweek, “High Country News is a must for anyone following land use issues west of the 100th meridian.” Our hard-hitting coverage has won many major journalism awards during the past few years, including:

Utne Independent Press Awards for Best Environmental Coverage and for Best Local/Regional Coverage
Hillman Prize for Magazine Journalism
George Polk Award
First Person Narrative award from the American Society of Journalists and Authors
Science Journalism Award from the American Association for Advancement of Science
Walter Sullivan Award for Excellence in Science Journalism
James V. Risser Prize for Western Environmental Journalism

Every year, High Country News offers four to six internship positions, each six months long. Two to three new interns join us each June and January; we provide free housing and a $170-per-week stipend. To help defray moving costs, an additional $500 travel stipend is available. Exceptional candidates may have the option of staying on another six months as an editorial fellow.

Our interns and fellows are a key part of the HCN team; aside from a few minor tasks such as sorting the mail and answering phones, interns spend most of their time researching, interviewing, writing, and developing content — both written and multimedia. We pride ourselves on fairness, accuracy and good writing, and we expect no less of our interns.

For all of our internship positions, some prior journalism experience and/or education is preferred. Photography, radio and/or video experience are pluses, as is familiarity with audio and visual programs such as Final Cut Pro and Flash. We also prefer applicants who are familiar with High Country News and who have lived in the West and are familiar with its environmental and community issues. We strongly encourage Native American, Hispanic, and applicants from other under-represented backgrounds.

All interns work with the staff Editors to write news stories for the website and for the newsmagazine, ranging in length from 250 to 1,600 words. Depending on their experience and ability, editorial interns may also get the opportunity to write a 2,500- to 4,000-word feature story. Our editing process is rigorous — all copy goes through two layers of editing and it is not unusual for a story to see six or eight drafts. Reporting is generally conducted over the phone and the Internet, but we do have money to send each intern out into the field at least once to do on-the-ground reporting.

Our interns go on to become leaders in journalism and politics. They pursue careers as reporters, editors, educators, lawyers, policymakers and freelance writers.

Upcoming start dates and application deadlines are as follows. Applications must be received in our office by the deadline date.

Email applications are not accepted (unless you are sending links to multimedia samples). Please send all writing samples as hardcopy. We don’t accept electronic materials because we usually receive more than 40 applications per session, and printing and collating each applicant’s materials has proven to be inordinately time-consuming.

Summer/Fall 2012

Start date – July 3, 2012
End date – December 14, 2012
(Applications must be received by Feb. 24, 2012)

Qualified interns can expect to hit the ground running, learning the ins-and-outs of the Western industry by making extensive contacts with historians, true-blue cowboys, Western apparel companies and a variety of craftsmen and Western experts. Each day will bring new challenges and new assignments, and interns will work closely with the editors to truly grow as well rounded magazine journalists. Our company, Active Interest Media, owns many of the large equine titles, including EQUUS, Horse&Rider, Dressage Today, The Trail Rider, and Spin To Win Rodeo.

About American Cowboy: American Cowboy celebrates the past and the present of the West with content about lifestyle, travel, culture, and great all highlighted with gorgeous photography. Our readers are wild for the romance and drama of all things Western, devouring stories about the past as eagerly as tales about today’s wranglers¬–of cattle and couture. Our affluent audience loves to express their cowboy spirit through all aspects of their life, from homes to heels to horses.

Interested interns should contact Martha Simmons, Executive Director, Dani’s Foundation 303.601.1881 or email to martha@danisfoundation.org

We’re looking for an intern to help Angel, the founder and Madame with managing the space and, most importantly, taking on some responsibilities of their own. The ideal candidate is someone who would want to be a member of Cohere to begin with!

You’ll have some specific tasks you’re responsible for every day we’re open (Monday through Friday, 9am-4pm). They include:
• Being a morning person OR an afternoon person: you’ll be in charge of opening or closing the space every morning/afternoon, monitoring the coffee, and making sure everything is ready for members to arrive.
• Being a people person: you’ll be a go-to person for people with questions throughout the day. You won’t need to know *everything*, but you’ll know who to go to to find out. You’ll also be giving new visitors and members tours around the space, and getting them acquainted and acclimated. You’ll need to be comfortable conversing with strangers until they become friends
• Being an organized person: you’ll be keeping tabs on multiple google docs, member paperwork, photos and our daily attendance records.
• Being a self-starter: the status quo will get you by, but we’re looking for someone who’s going to look for problems, and fix them.
Update about work hours: The hours are 8:45 am to noon-ish 3-5 days/week with afternoons or evenings sprinkled in if you like. You’re welcome to stay longer and if you’ve got a part time job, or class, we’re willing to be accommodating.
What do you get in return?
• A free membership at Cohere. Since you’ll be here a lot anyway, you get a full time membership (worth $199/month) to work on your own projects between things you’re doing with Cohere and our members. Is the coffee shop and library driving you nuts to work on your homework or school projects? Come and do them at Cohere. You’ll get 24/7 access so why not?!
• An incredible network of mentors. This position is perfect for someone who’s interested in being a freelancer, small business owner, or entrepreneur but doesn’t know where to start. The Cohere community is known for being an incredibly valuable support network for anyone who wants to work independently. You’ll have the collective mindshare and experience of over 40 members at your fingertips, as well as any organizational or personal contacts Cohere has in this city, and others.
• The most fun you’ll ever have at work. Cohere is a productivity powerhouse, but it’s also a blast. Fun people, bright spaces, clever chairs…seriously. Chili cook-offs, free food, pancake Thursdays and more.
• An opportunity to be a part of something big…and potentially make some money doing it. This internship is unpaid to begin, but that doesn’t mean forever. We believe in rewarding performance, and if you’re doing a great job, Cohere will be growing and we’ll be able to allocate money for this position. The amount of time this takes is 100% in your hands.
• A chance to take Angel’s job, and make it your own. The entire point of this position is twofold: to garden yet another successful independent contributor to the community of Fort Collins, and to have someone to fill Angel’s shoes when she’s ready to expand the business which happens on 3/31/2012.

We have no minimum requirements in education or industry experience.
We do have minimum requirements in passion for Old Town, an understanding of the values of Cohere, and willingness to work your butt off.
If you’re game, you can let us know by going to this page http://coherecommunity.com/about/contact and telling us about why you want to be a part of Cohere. We’ll get back to you and let you know when we’d like to meet you!

This is a great opportunity for journalism majors to get hands-on experience in a newsroom, as well as solid coaching on how to improve as a writer and reporter. Our internships are 100 percent writing, and interns get the opportunity to write many articles for print.

The editorial department has two openings for an internship that will begin after Labor Day and finish during the holidays (date to be determined, depending on the students’ schedules). It’s for 20 hours per week, unpaid, and we require the student to obtain academic credit from the internship.

Interested students should contact me now with questions, and send me a cover letter, resume, and 5-6 of their best writing clips (preferably not from the classroom, but from previous internships or from the student newspaper). — Bruce Goldberg, 303-803-9226, bgoldberg@bizjournals.com

What we’re looking for
We’re looking for self-motivated people with ambitions to become working journalists or writers. We want you to have strong research, fact-checking, critical thinking and writing skills, but prior journalistic experience is not required. Some familiarity with the issues of the West and mountain towns, e.g. tourism, natural resources, environment, etc., is helpful, as is some experience writing A&E criticism. Organizational skills, attention to detail, a sense of humor, and humility are required.

What we offer
The JH Weekly, Wyoming’s only alt-weekly newspaper, offers an opportunity to develop strong reporting skills and to write numerous articles in a stunning mountain setting with room to play and explore to your heart’s content. You will write news, A&E, music, opinion, and, if you’re up to snuff, compose a feature article(s). You’ll help with layout and proofing. A thick and constructively critical editorial sieve is intended to help interns leave the paper writing better and faster. Interns play an active role in putting the paper together and advance at their own pace. You’ll work on a flexible schedule (b/n 15-30 hours a week), with the exception of established schedules on Mondays and Tuesdays and weekly editorial meetings. That should give you plenty of time to enjoy all Jackson Hole has to offer. We’re working out the details of compensation/stipend/etc.

Additionally, we are advertising this position as an UNPAID internship. However, many former interns and players (myself included) have noted that experience with the team from a management position was a hot talking point with prospective employers.

We will be traveling this year to California, Utah, British Columbia, and Michigan for regular season games. Travel will be negotiated with any prospective interns.

Thank you for your interest! Please give me a call if you are interested in this position! We hope to hear from you soon.

Interns in this program will be expected to independently and effectively be able to investigate a story, gather interviews & b-roll, then write and edit all content. Beyond the typical news setting, however, this internship will expose the student to a broad array of promotional, educational and documentary-style video production. Topics will range from hard science in a lab to arts performances – and everything in between.

In return for this dedicated work, the intern will receive intensive training in a professional environment. Interns will have the opportunity to develop their skills in creative lighting, camerawork, motion graphics, webcasting and DVD authoring. The final product gained from the internship will be a polished demo reel for the next step of the intern’s career. Confidence and skills gained here will help with those next steps.

Each intern will have unique work availability and CSU Video will make every effort to accommodate the right person as possible. An average of 10 hours per week will be expected for fall semester, depending on the demands of workload. Often, this involves evenings and weekends. Two credit hours through the Journalism school will be awarded per semester (ask JoAnn Cornell for details).

Colorado State University Journalism Students,

Score Publishing is currently seeking editorial interns for the Summer and Fall semesters. We are a multimedia (magazine and online) sports-based company. Score previously published the Official Youth Publications for the Colorado Avalanche and Denver Outlaws (Colorado Hockey Insider and Colorado Lacrosse Insider) but is now looking to launch a new publication, Colorado Sports Insider.

Our interns will initially be asked to provide editorial content for our Web sites. With progress or appropriate experience, they will then have the opportunity to work with our print publication.

Title: Editorial Intern

Commitment: Entirely up to the student; as much or as little as the student wishes to contribute. We ask that the student submits at least one story every two weeks. Other assignments will coincide with the articles if the student is seeking college credit.

Location: Many of our writers are spread throughout the state since our publication runs statewide. Students may work from home as long as they touch base weekly.

Description: Interns will be assigned stories and asked to adhere to deadlines. This internship opportunity will give participants experience writing, editing, interviewing and working in accordance to deadlines. Our publication is very broad and covers youth sports up to the pros levels. No doubt this internship will provide you with exposure on a statewide level.

Contact: For those interested, please email Scott Bondy at sbondy@scorepublishing.com. We ask that you provide a resume with a brief description as to why you might be interested in working with Score Publishing.

Thank you for your interest,

Scott Bondy
