St. Paul, Minn. — Two hundred fifty college students will get a close-up view of next year's Republican National Convention as part of a nationwide internship program.
The Washington Center for Internship and Academic Seminars announced a partnership Wednesday with Augsburg College to host its convention interns. The center has provided similar hands-on convention experiences for 1,500 students since 1984.
Eugene Alpert, the center's senior vice president, says participating interns will also earn academic credit.
