FIRE Welcomes Its Undergraduate Summer Interns
Last Monday, seven undergraduates began their work for FIRE's summer internship in the Philadelphia office. FIRE's "Class of 2010" will spend the summer writing, researching, and helping FIRE staffers prepare for the upcoming academic year. In addition to their daily tasks and summer projects, the interns will participate in workshops and seminars with FIRE's staff and leading experts on free speech. Tune in to The Torch as we introduce each of our interns to our supporters and hear from them why they decided to spend their summer defending liberty on campus with FIRE.
