ENVIRONMENTAL COLLEGE ON-CAMPUS PAID INTERNSHIP
-------------------------------------------------------------------
September 18, 1995
To Whom it May Concern:
Students for an Energy-Efficient Environment (SEEE) is proud to announce
its second national internship program! Over the next few weeks,
SEEE will be selecting thirty students from across the country to
promote energy-efficient technologies on their campuses from October 27,
1995 to June 1, 1996.
Energy-efficient technologies, like "Green Lights" and "Energy Star
Computers," have the potential to save millions of dollars in energy
costs on your campus while protecting the environment by reducing
airborne pollution at the source! At the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, students are saving $3.6 million dollars every year from
energy-efficient lighting, while reducing pollution annually by the
equivalent of taking 5,000 cars off the road. Nationally, if we used
energy-efficient lighting wherever profitable, we could reduce pollution
by the equivalent of taking 43 million cars off the road (that's
one-third of the U.S. fleet!!) and simultaneously cut $20 billion dollars
from our electric bill!
SEEE is currently recruiting Student Government Leaders, Environmental
Activists, graduate students and other ambitious, motivated, and
outstanding students from across the country to join our internship
program. Thirty students will receive a $1000 and a trip to Washington,
October 27-29, to learn about energy-efficient technologies and then
work on campus to make them a reality!! The stiped will be paid in two
upon completion of the terms of the internship.
This is not a summer internship, but a term-time on-campus internship to
allow interested students to make a lasting difference on campus. Interns
will be taught the fundamentals of energy-efficient technologies and
practical methods for campus advocacy at the Energy-Efficiency Training
Retreat in October. Upon returning to campus, Interns will be expected
to utilize their skills to convince their campus administration to join
voluntary, profit-based energy-efficiency programs like the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency's Green Lights Program. Interns will
work closely with SEEE's central staff in Cambridge, and will have an
expense budget to cover their work-related expenses.
To apply, please complete the attached application form, a resume, an
official transcript, and a cover letter explaining your qualifications
for the internship (including, but not limited to: campus-wide advocacy,
student government experience, commitment to environmentalism or fiscal
conservatism) and why you would like to promote these technologies on
campus, to the above address. No major is preferred, and all types of
extracurricular backgrounds are encouraged. Please note that no
applications will be accepted via email; please print out the attached
application and mail it to the listed address.
Seniors graduating before the spring or summer semesters are not
eligible. However, on-campus graduate students are encouraged to apply.
All applications must be postmarked by October 4, 1995. Finalists for
the Internships will be interviewed by telephone by SEEE staff, and
Interns will be notified on or around October 10, 1995 of their selection.
Students for an Energy-Efficient Environment, is the only national,
student-run, environmental organization dedicated to the promotion of
market-based solutions to environmental problems on college campuses
across the country. We work with student governments and campus
environmental organizations as they convince their administrations to
adopt policies on campus that will save money while protecting the
environment. SEEE does not sell or advocate the use of any product, and
none of our funding comes from industry-based sources. SEEE was founded
in June, 1993 by full-time students, and it continues to be fully
operated by undergraduates.
If you have any questions about the Internship or SEEE, please
call us at (202) 784-8673 or (617) 493-5996 or e-mail us at
fine@husc.harvard.edu.
We guarantee the interns one of the most rewarding experiences of their
college career, and we look forward to receiving your application.
