Virginia SPJ,SDX Educational Foundation
and Society of Professional Journalists, Virginia Pro Chapter

$500 to $1,500 FELLOWSHIPS SUPPORT
SUMMER 2021 JOURNALISM INTERNSHIPS

The Virginia SPJ,SDX Educational Foundation invites applications from students at accredited Virginia colleges and universities for fellowships to support their summer 2021 internships at print and electronic news organizations. Each fellowship will include a cash stipend ranging from $500 to $1,500, which can be used for expenses incurred in performing a supervised, full-time summer internship of at least six weeks.

The amount of each stipend will be determined by the foundation trustees based on an applicant’s estimated out-of-pocket internship costs, such as living expenses, equipment, professional attire, travel costs, publications, subscriptions, supplies and so on. Fellowship winners will be announced May 1, 2021. Stipends will be paid upon independent confirmation of an internship offer by the fellow’s host news organization. An evaluation provided by the fellow’s supervisor will be required upon completion of the internship.

The foundation recognizes that the COVID-19 pandemic will affect where and how internships will be structured and performed. Many editors and reporters continue to work from home, and interns also might be required to work outside of traditional newsrooms. COVID-19 policies of governments and host news organizations should be respected, and related costs should be factored into an applicant’s estimated internship costs.

Responsibility for securing summer news internships belongs entirely to each applicant. The foundation will not assist with finding or obtaining internship opportunities. Students whose internships are paid or unpaid may apply.

The application form is available at http://bit.ly/spjva-fellowships and at www.spjva.com. Deadline for submission of applications is April 15, 2021.

Applications Open for Columbia Publishing Course in NYC 

Applications are being acccepted for the 2021 session of the Columbia Publishing Course. There is a weekly drop-in info session for the Columbia Publishing Course, unique to the colleges participating in the D'Aprix Sweeney Family Fellowship.

From February 17th until March 10th, a session will be held every Wednesday from 12-1pm EST. Students will be able to ask questions about the course and the fellowship. They can register for the event here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/info-session-columbia-publishing-course-daprix-sweeney-family-fellowship-tickets-140861952893

Careers in publishing have always attracted people with talent and energy and a love of reading. The Columbia Publishing Course was originally founded in 1947 at Radcliffe College in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where it thrived as the Radcliffe Publishing Course. In 2001, the course moved to Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism.

New York City is the heart of American publishing, and the Publishing Course has taken every advantage of its current location while building on its strong legacy. For seventy-four years, the Publishing Course has provided an intensive introduction to all aspects of book and magazine publishing, from evaluations of original manuscripts to the sales and marketing of finished products. Students learn from writers, editors, publishers, design directors, advertising experts, publicists, and writers—all are leaders in the industry, and many are course graduates.

More than one hundred publishing professionals come to the Publishing Course each summer to describe the nature of their work, conduct workshops and seminars, and answer questions in classroom discussions and informal sessions. The curriculum is very intensive. Students learn about publishing through a rigorous schedule of lectures and group activities and by completing professionally evaluated assignments. By spending time with speakers and instructors in in-depth discussions, working on assignments after classes end, and interacting with likeminded colleagues for six weeks, students take part in a total-immersion program that cannot be duplicated by a series of part-time courses. In the process, students discover a capacity to assimilate and produce more than they ever imagined possible. The Publishing Course allows students to compare book, magazine, and digital publishing, which helps them determine their career preferences.

During the first weeks, the course concentrates on book publishing— from manuscript to bound book, from bookstore sale to movie deal. Students study every element of the process: manuscript evaluation, agenting, editing, design, production, publicity, sales, e-books, and marketing.

Students also learn about different types of publishing houses, publishing strategies, and career paths. The class then divides into small groups for a seven-day book workshop. Each workshop group simulates the operation of a publishing house, giving students a chance to apply what they’ve learned and to gain hands-on experience in a particular area of book publishing.

The second section of the course is devoted to magazines and digital media. Magazine and web professionals lecture on every facet of print and digital publication, from planning, writing, and design to marketing, promotion, and distribution. Through lectures and regular assignments, students learn what it takes to publish a successful magazine and launch a profitable website.

During the magazine and digital workshop, student groups develop proposals for new print and online publications, researching possible audiences, establishing editorial mission statements, designing layouts and wireframes, assessing competitors, determining potential advertisers, and developing a branding strategy.

By the end of the six weeks, course graduates have a greater understanding of book, magazine, and digital publishing than many people working in the field do. The final week of the publishing course ties together everything students have learned in the previous five weeks and features lectures, field trips, and additional career guidance.

There’s no better place to launch your career as a political reporter. -- Claire Wang, Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, Class of 2019, Fall 2019 intern
