[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of places you can intern that aren’t DC or a state capital: local constituent services office for congressmen/senators, volunteer for a campaign, intern for local government like April in Parks and Rec. Usajobs.gov has paid summer internship opportunities. Other schools to consider: Iowa State University of Nebraska-Lincoln [/quote] My daughter is about to graduate with a degree in government from Lawrence University in Appleton, WI (which isn't exactly a mecca for public policy/poli sci). But...it is a super swingy area in a super swing state, so campaigns are always laser focused on having a presence in that area. In 2018 she interned for the Democratic Party of WI to elect the governor and US senator and got a ton of amazing experience, met a ton of people, and turned it into an internship the next winter with the office of a local state legislature member and an internship with the Governor the following summer. In 2020, she interned on the Biden presidential campaign, again super beneficial experience. She also interned with the City's Mayor for a semester. Last summer she did a fed internship (from home). Not being in DC or a state capital was not a hindrance at all. [/quote]
