Whether they are in Bloomington or Washington, D.C., or just online, IU journalism students are invited to sit in on a session of Politico Summer School Wednesday, Aug. 3.

Sponsored by the news magazine based in D.C., the session is open to Washington-area interns, who will receive VIP seating at the Newseum in Washington.  Bloomington-area journalism undergraduate and graduate students may watch the session via remote hook up in Ernie Pyle Hall lounge. All others can go online or follow the conversation on Twitter @politicosummer.

The session focuses on internships and features Politico’s White House correspondent Mike Allen and political reporter Emily Schultheis talking with Jen Psaki, deputy White House communications director, and Chuck Todd, NBC political director. All four are former interns and will talk about how internships enhance careers.

Bill Nichols, BA’80 (English) and a former Indiana Daily Student employee, is Politico’s managing editor who extended this invitation to IU student journalists.
