<div>Although the Dean’s Office has a [http://www.williams.edu/dean/fellowsh/fellowshiplist.html pretty comprehensive list of fellowships], if you scan the [http://www.williams.edu/dean/fellowsh/index.html deadlines] or get the sheet that is handed out at information sessions, you might get the impression that all postgraduate fellowships are academic in nature and only winnable by those with stratospheric GPAs. Certainly this is true with the ones that the office promotes (Rhodes, Marshall, Truman, Fulbright, Gates Cambridge and the Williams UK Fellowships), but there are many others out there (organized roughly in order of deadlines):<br />

<hr />
<div>Here's a list of stuff that your parents or someone else already paid for (alphabetized).<br />
<br />
== Miscellaneous ==<br />
* Color printing: Jesup<br />
* Condoms: the health center - all hours, formerly in Baxter basement - does anyone know where Peer Health is now? Yes! Peer Health is at [[Peer Health]]!<br />
* Dry erase boards: The Society of Alumni gives them out at the fall Purple Key Fair and at various other large events.<br />
* Light Bulbs - B&G, just ask your custodian, and they'll supply relatively efficient incandescent replacement bulbs.<br />
* Log Cabin - free for any Williams Outing Club members to reserve for one night.<br />
* Massages - ACE Stressbusters: Wednesday night, from 7-9pm, come at 6:45pm to sign up, hot chocolate, coffee, tea and as soon as the Goodrich coffee bar gets their stuff together, cookies, will also be provided for free.<br />
* Media equipment (Cameras, external hard drives, camcorders and more) for rental: Stetson Media Lab - bottom floor opposite the computer lab.<br />
* Movies (VHS and DVD) and music CDs can be borrowed for free from Sawyer basement. Just remember to return them on time.<br />
* Paper towels and liquid soap: a bathroom near you (new this year, free only in the sense that environmental costs have been discounted)<br />
* Drying hands on your pants/ personal handtowel racks: tried and true.<br />
* Paper cutter: Schow photocopy room<br />
* Pencils: OCC<br />
* Printing: Computer labs in Schow, Sawyer, Jesup, Bronfman, Clark, '62 CTD, Stetson, Goodrich, and numerous other places.<br />
* Scanning, DVD burning, poster printing, video copying and editing, and any other multimedia needs: Jesup Media Studio. We provide the equipment and technical assistance; you have to do the work and provide media (like DVDs, tapes, and photo paper) yourself.<br />
* Cross-country skis, sleds, snowshoes, sleeping bags, etc., can be borrowed for free from the WOC Equipment Room if you have a Williams Outing Club membership card. You can join for $10--equipment borrowing is unlimited. The equipment room is located upstairs in Siskind House.<br />

<br />
== Dead Trees and Ink ==<br />
* Textbooks/other books! Every beginning of semester, especially the fall, check out the free books table in the [[1914 Library]]. Even students not on financial aid can get free books this way (although only students on financial aid can formally borrow from the 1914 Library). What's that? Your prof says you need the latest edition of this particular translation of Plato, even though it's gone through millenia of perfectly competent translations? Baloney. Hit the 1914.<br />
* Victoria's Secret (and other) catalogs: Mail trailer next to Lehman<br />
* The Wall Street Journal: Hopkins, the mail trailer<br />
* The New York Times: Mission, Goodrich<br />
* Old course packets: Easy to find at the end of the semester near recycling bins - you can often score the readings for that class you wanted to take but didn't have time.

<br />
== Food ==<br />

Internships
2006-01-25T02:37:04Z
<p>Acordova: </p>
<hr />
<div>Internships are extremely popular -- [http://www.quintcareers.com/internship_success.html 9 of 10 college students] complete at least one in their careers. However, the process of finding, applying, selecting and participating an internship might be difficult to understand the first time around.<br />
<br />
Internships are basically an opportunity to go somewhere and work, generally without compensation (although you can sometimes receive sponsorship from the [http://www.williams.edu/resources/occ/occ_internships.htm OCC] and [http://www.williams.edu/ces/ces/studentopps/funding.htm CES]). In its ideal, the monetary gain passed up by doing an internship is offset by other benefits, principally the professional connections you build and the opportunity to try out a career for a limited amount of time without any commitment.<br />
<br />
Most internships aim to recruit college students, and thus take place over the summer.<br />
<br />
== Advice ==<br />
<br />
Apply early, apply often - all you need is one place to say 'yes' and you're good. There are tons of opportunities to apply to, but sometimes the best internships are the ones you make for yourself. Don't be afraid to ask - everyone loves unpaid help (as long as you don't [http://www.snopes.com/computer/internet/tripplehorn.asp abuse the privilege] like this [http://halogen.note.amherst.edu/~astudent/2003-2004/issue01/news/08.html Amherst student]).<br />
<br />
== Journalism ==<br />
<br />
=== Newspapers ===<br />
<br />
Just about every paper offers an internship - just plug in the title and the word 'internship' into Google to find the page. However, the more prestigious or big the paper, the more selective the internship. Also, it's good to inquire to make sure you know exactly what you're getting into (so, for example, if you're interested in sports you won't be covering fashion).<br />
<br />
== International Relations ==<br />
<br />
=== [http://www.csis.org/about/jobs_interns/ Center for Strategic and International Studies] ===<br />
One of the big, powerhouse think tanks for foreign policy. Covers every corner of the globe.<br />
<br />
=== [http://wola.org/internships.htm Washington Office on Latin America] ===<br />
A medium-sized think tank that deals with Latin American relations through specific issues such as human rights and trade.<br />
<br />
=== [http://www.coha.org/about_internships.php Council on Hemispheric Affairs] ===<br />
A tiny think tank in Washington run that does Latin American policy (see the main page for a good sampling). A great opportunity to jump in and get involved with the day-to-day world of policy analysis.<br />
* Pros: The entire staff is exactly one person, so the interns run the place, writing all the articles, attending all of the conferences, editing and publishing a magazine. It's pretty easy to get an internship - [[Alan Cordova]] got one having only taken Intro to IR.<br />
* Cons: That [http://www.coha.org/ourdirector.htm one person] is quite a personality, and if you don't like his politics (somewhere in between Chavez and Castro), it is sometimes difficult to get things distributed (he approves all articles). Also, COHA is not exactly the go-to place for Washington power brokers, though if you were at those places, your work would be much less interesting.<br />

The logic behind road numbers
2006-01-21T17:52:35Z
<p>Acordova: </p>
<hr />
<div>(The word "road" is used here to avoid the [[route/highway argument]].)<br />
<br />
Knowing the logic behind road numbers can help you navigate when you are lost.<br />
<br />
Roads that circumscribe major metropolitan areas have three digits. Thus, 495 circumscribes the Boston area.<br />
<br />
Roads that run north/south have odd numbers. Thus, 95 runs from Florida to Canada.<br />
<br />
Roads that run east/west have even numbers. Thus, [[Route 2]] runs from Cambridge, out through Williamstown, and beyond. I-40 runs from Wilmington, NC, to somewhere way out west, past Texas. And Highway/Route 66 is perhaps the most famous example of an American east/west road.<br />
<br />
Knowing this logic can (sort of) help you navigate when you are lost.<br />
<br />
It also helps to know that the numbers [http://www.ihoz.com/viol.html mostly] increase from west to east and south to north (for interstate highways at least).</div>

:Sean Milano '09 tries to immitate his neighbour upstairs, but fails miserably. He just isn't cool enough.<br />

'''Scottish Accent'''<br />

'''Southern Accent'''<br />

[[Brent Yorgey]] '04<br />
<br />
Math nerds know the Greek alphabet.<br />
<br />
So do Classics majors. (And in order. What comes after phi, oh my math and physics friends?) (the "$" comes after "\phi", unless it's on its own line, in which case you'll put "$$")<br />
<br />
====Modern====<br />
[[Joanna Demakis]] knows some but she dropped out of Greek school after first grade.<br />
<br />
[[Jono Dowse '06]] thinks Modern Greek is cool and spent some time in online lessons for it his sophomore year. His study has since lapsed. He knows the order of the Greek alphabet well despite being a math major.<br />

[[Jono Dowse '06]] is to the [http://wso.williams.edu/~jdowse/ipa.html International Phonetic Alphabet] as Al Gore is to the Internet.<br />
<br />
[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=06dr David Rodriguez] learned the IPA incredibly well as Jono Dowse's (who's Nate Sanders?) student in LING 111<br />
<br />
[[Jason Leith]] rejects the notion that a velar trill is impossible. It is, however, so ugly a sound that not even languages like Dutch and Danish have adopted it. He uses IPA when indicating pronunciation in his music.<br />

[[Diana Davis '07]] frequently mutters small phrases in Japanese. People think she is mumbling, becuase they don't understand Japanese. In addition to randomly speaking in Japanese, she also randomly speaks English with an excellent Japanese accent.<br />
<br />
[[Leah Weintraub '06]] spent a semester in Japan. Ergo, she probably speaks Japanese.<br />
<br />
[http://wso.williams.edu/facebook/view?unix=08cvw Charlotte White] rocks at Japanese, and is easily distracted by pretty things from Japan. She also says "WTF Japan" rather often. As should we all.<br />

<div>Fellowships and opportunities for funding at Williams for current students.<br />
<br />
Organized roughly in chronological order in terms of one's career at Williams, though there can be any number of variations.<br />
<br />
=== CES Funding ===<br />
* '''Number of Awards''': Varies<br />
* '''Amount''': Up to $3,400<br />
* '''Eligible''': All (preference to juniors working on a senior thesis)<br />
* '''Time''': Summers (10 weeks)<br />
* '''[http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/funding.htm Web site]'''<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:sgardner@williams.edu Sarah Gardner]<br />
* '''Past winners''': [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#2005 2005], [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#2004 2004], [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#2003 2003], [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#2002 2002], [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#2001 2001], [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#2000 2000], [http://www.williams.edu/CES/ces/studentopps/list.htm#1999 1999].<br />
<br />
Each summer the Center for Environmental Studies offers limited funding to support student projects including scholarly research, career-related internships, and creative endeavors. All Williams students are eligible to apply for CES funding, regardless of major, concentration, or year(graduating seniors are not eligible). All proposals must demonstrate an environmental component, although our interpretation of "environmental" is broad.<br />
<br />
All students who accept funding from CES are expected to give a public presentation about their Summer work during the following academic year by giving a log lunch talk, a gallery exhibit, or some other public presentation. A written report of the project( 5 - 10 pages for internships; 15 - 20 pages for research projects) must be submitted in the fall, along with a 300-600 word article for the CES newsletter,"Field Notes".<br />
<br />
The maximum stipend for research, internships, and creative projects is $3400 for 10 weeks of full-time work. Applications will be accepted for part-time projects, or projects taking less than 10 weeks. CES encourages students to seek funding from additional sources. In the case that partial funding is obtained elsewhere, CES will provide not more than the difference between the funding secured and $3400 for 10 weeks of full-time work.<br />
<br />
=== MMUF & WCURF ===<br />
* '''Number of Awards''': Varies<br />
* '''Eligible''': Sophomores (see below)<br />

=== OCC Fellowships (A&E, ’51, ’72, ’74, ’75, Barsch, Fox, Kershaw, Kraft, Levien, Marver, Mead, Dively) ===<br />
* '''Number of Awards''': Varies<br />
* '''Eligible''': Sophomores and Juniors<br />
* '''Amount''': $2,640, or $1,320 with your organization expected to match the grant<br />
* '''Time''': Summer<br />
* '''Applications due''': January 13, 2006<br />

* '''Administrator''': [mailto:Ronald.L.Gallagher@williams.edu Ron Gallagher], [http://www.williams.edu/resources/occ Office of Career Counseling]<br />
* '''Past Winners''': See brochure and binder in the OCC<br />
<br />
The OCC fellowships give students the resources needed to carry out virtually any internship. Applicants submit a proposal, describing the internship in as much detail as possible. The keys to a winning application are including as much detail as possible (so the committee knows you’re serious and qualified) and making connections to both past experience and long-term career goals.<br />
Grant recipients receive a check at the beginning of the summer and are expected to use it to cover expenses related to the internship (housing, food, transportation). They are also expected to submit a 1-2-page write-up to Ron Gallagher before September 1 after the internship.<br />
<br />
=== Gaudino Fund Grant ===<br />
* '''Number of Awards''': 4<br />
* '''Eligible''': Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors<br />
* '''Amount''': $1000<br />
* '''Time''': Winter Study<br />
* '''Applications due''': October 3, 2005<br />
* '''[http://www.williams.edu/resources/gaudino/grants.htm Web Site]'''<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:James.McAllister@williams.edu Professor James McAllister], [http://www.williams.edu/PoliSci/site/nav.php?c=faculty&u=mcallister.htm Political Science Department]<br />
* '''Past Winners''': (2005) Sara Gersen ’05 Elle Frazer ‘05, Ben Scent ’06, [[Alan Cordova ’06]], (2004) [http://ourworld.worldlearning.org/site/News2?JServSessionIdr006=msj92va5f1.app6b&abbr=gen_&page=NewsArticle&id=6475&news_iv_ctrl=1341 Jess Lovaas ‘06]<br />
<br />
The goal of the Gaudino fellowship is to plan and carry out an independent project designed to fulfill the motto of “uncomfortable learning†– being in an environment that challenges one’s beliefs and/or sensibilities. The goal is to not only learn something, but reflect on the experience. Proposals are due at the end of September and must include a specific itinerary and budget. The key to winning the Gaudino is to demonstrate that what you are doing will take you so far out of your element that it will be a highly transformative experience.<br />
Grant recipients enroll in [http://www.williams.edu/admin/registrar/winterstudy/courseinfo/courses05.html#PSCI023 PSCI 023]. However, after that, you are pretty much on your own to take the project wherever you want.<br />

<br />
=== Charles W. Hufford Memorial Fellowship ===<br />
* '''Eligible''': Juniors<br />
* '''Amount''': Varies, usually around $500<br />
* '''Time''': Summer-School Year<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:Cheryl.L.Shanks@williams.edu Professor Cheryl Shanks], [http://www.williams.edu/PoliSci/site/nav.php?c=faculty&u=shanks.htm Political Science Department]<br />
* '''Past Winner''': (2005) [[Alan Cordova '06]]<br />
<br />
Established in 1988 by the family, friends and classmates of Charles W. Hufford ’89, the Charles Hufford Memorial Fellowship is awarded to a member of the junior class to support independent research or work broadly related to the field of political economy or political science during the summer before the senior year. The purpose of the fellowship is to enable a Williams undergraduate to pursue an imaginative project with prospects for personal enrichment and expansion of educational horizons. One fellowship will be awarded this year.<br />
<br />
Students wishing to apply for the fellowship should prepare a description of their project together with a brief estimated budget. The proposal should include a statement of purpose, a description of the project, and the names of two Williams faculty members who can be called for references. The proposal should be approximately 1000 words. The statement should explain how the project will enrich and expand the applicant’s educational perspectives. The budget should briefly outline the anticipated expenses for the project.<br />
There is no requirement that applicants have a particular major. However, as stated above, the proposed subject and its purpose must be related – broadly interpreted – to the field of political science or political economy. The Hufford Fellow will be expected to submit a written report on the project, its achievements and consequences, at the end of the fellowship.<br />
<br />
=== Linen Summer Grant for Asian Studies ===<br />
* '''Eligible''': First-Years, Sophomores, Juniors<br />
* '''Amount''': Varies, usually around $1000<br />
* '''Time''': Summer<br />
* '''Applications Due''': Spring Break<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:CKubler@williams.edu Professor Neil Kubler], [http://www.williams.edu/Asian/kubler.html Asian Studies Department]<br />
* '''Past Winners''': (2005) Kristyn J. Bretz '06, Phillip G. Carter '08, Jason C. Fan '08, Morgan J. Goodwin '08, Theodore F. Haley '07, Christian M. Hudak '08, Jason Law '06, Thai Q. Nguyen '08, Ridhima S. Raina '07, Phoebe N. Rockwood '07, Richard J. Sosa '06, S.Peter Tosirisuk '07.<br />
<br />
Supported by an endowment for Asian Studies established by family and friends in memory of James A. Linen III, Class of 1934, the Department of Asian Studies offers a limited number of grants to assist Williams College undergraduates (including rising juniors, rising sophomores, and rising first-years) in traveling to South, Southeast, and East Asia during the summer for educational purposes. Note that, for the purposes of these grants, “Asia†refers to South, Southeast, and East Asia, defined as those parts of the continent east of the Khyber Pass and south and east of the Tian Shan Mountains and the Gobi Desert.<br />
Proposals might include (but are not limited to) conducting research for an honor's thesis; pursuing other kinds of independent research under the direction of a member of the Williams College faculty; participating in an intensive language training program in Asia at the advanced or intermediate level; etc. Students who have not studied Asian languages at Williams are also eligible to apply. Students develop individual study proposals in consultation with sponsoring faculty members, and these are evaluated by the department in the spring. Several awards are given each year, in amounts that vary depending on the proposed research. Students wishing to apply for Linen Summer Grants should contact the Asian Studies Department Chair early in the Spring semester for information about obtaining an application.<br />
<br />
The Linen Grant Selection Committee will give highest priority to funding proposals that contribute to developing a student’s scholarship in a serious and well-focused way. Proposals might include (but are not limited to) conducting research for an honor’s thesis; pursuing other kinds of independent research under the direction of a member of the Williams College faculty; participating in an intensive language training program in Asia at the advanced or intermediate level; etc. The selection committee may elect to call finalists for a brief interview. Grants will be awarded according to the merits of the proposal and the availability of funds; some projects may be offered partial funding. Please note that disbursement of grants will be through payment of invoices or reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses based on receipts. Applicants will be informed of the committee’s decision by mid April. <br />
<br />
Students who wish to be considered for Linen grants should submit the following:<br />
* A project proposal of no more than 500 words. The proposal should describe in detail the project to be undertaken. It should include an explanation of how the project fits in with the student’s present and future study plans, as well as an explanation of why this project can be most successfully undertaken only in Asia.<br />
* If the applicant is proposing an independent research project, the applicant should submit a brief letter of support from the member of the Williams faculty who has agreed to supervise the project, including a description of the project’s final product.<br />
* The names of two faculty references. The selection committee may contact references directly if the applicant is a finalist.<br />
* A detailed project budget indicating how much money is requested and the specific purposes to which it will be put. Indicate what alternative sources of funding are available, including any that have been or will be applied for.<br />
<br />
=== Junior Travel Fellowships (Wilmers, World and Lawrence) ===<br />
* '''Number of Awards''': Varies<br />
* '''Eligible''': Juniors<br />
* '''Amount''': Varies<br />
* '''Time''': Summer<br />
* '''[http://www.williams.edu/dean/fellowsh/junior_summer.html Web Site]'''<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:peter.grudin@williams.edu Dean Peter Grudin]<br />
* '''Applications Due''': February 14, 2005<br />
* '''Past Winners''': See packet in the Dean’s Office or on the [http://www.williams.edu/dean/fellowsh/index.html web site].<br />
<br />
Williams offers three fellowships in support of student travel abroad during the summer following their junior year (i.e., rising seniors). Students interested in applying for these fellowships should attend the information meeting in November or December. This will be your chance to ask specific questions about the fellowships and project design. Please note that the fellowships support travel outside the United States only, and that projects must be fully designed and implemented by the students who propose them; fellowship funds may not be used to pay tuition or expenses for any organized course of study abroad. <br />
The Mary and Nathaniel M. Lawrence Memorial Fellowship, in honor of Nathaniel Lawrence, Professor of Philosophy, and his wife Mary, makes relatively modest grants to support travel projects that lead to personal development. This means that a student’s project need not have an academic or primarily educational component; suchprojects that do would likely be more appropriate for one of the other two fellowships.<br />
<br />
The Robert G. Wilmers Jr. 1990 Memorial Student Travel Abroad Fellowship honors Robert Wilmers, Jr. The fellowship’s grants are designed to support substantial projects involving foreign travel and study. Successful projects will normally involve 6 weeks or more abroad, and will present an ambitious intellectual program. <br />
<br />
The Class of 1945 Student World Fellowship is the gift of those classes whose academic careers at Williams were interrupted by World War II. These fellowships support projects of travel and study abroad that aim to increase international understanding, knowledge of and concern for other cultures, and social action that forges links among countries. The donors are especially interested in supporting projects that may form the basis for a senior thesis upon the fellows’ return, but this is not a rigid criterion. Projects must been substantial in their aims. <br />
<br />
For all summer fellowships, projects must take place outside of the United States. Projects must be independently planned and implemented. Awards are made to individual applicants only. Applications submitted by two or more students for joint projects will not be considered. <br />

The Community Scholars Project is a pilot summer program which will provide 8 students the opportunity to intern during the summer of ‘05 with a Northern Berkshire County community-based non-profit organization and develop related research and analytical skills.<br />
<br />
Students in the 8 week summer program will participate in a pre-work orientation seminar in early April (after Spring Break) before working in the local community organization of their choice from June 13th through August 5th.<br />
<br />
Participants will have informal opportunities throughout the work period to explore and discuss the meaning and relevance of their fieldwork to social and political research and policy. Students will also participate in an end-of-session symposium (during the first week of August). Each participant will be provided free college housing, a small meal plan and assistance with transportation to his/her host institution. Each student must arrange his/her internship opportunity in advance of submitting an application. Every applicant is required to consult with Sadie Miller (x2139, smiller@williams.edu) of the Community Service Office regarding placement. She will provide information on opportunities for those who need it.<br />

Coffee
2005-12-10T22:23:29Z
<p>Acordova: /* Lambert House */</p>
<hr />
<div>Coffee is a part of life for many Williams students. Fortunately, there are many places to go for a cup of joe.<br />
<br />
== EcoCafe ==<br />
<br />
Small: $1.00, Large: $1.25<br />
<br />
Dean's Beans coffee, usually well roasted, but very weakly brewed. The best choice around for reasonably priced organic coffee, but it unfortunately closes too early in the day to be of much use to many students.<br />
<br />
== Tunnel City Coffee ==<br />
<br />
20 oz: $1.90<br />
<br />
Acidic but refreshingly bold. You don't need to drink endless cups to get your fix, just a small cup is satisfying.<br />
<br />
If you have a coffee maker, save money by brewing your own black stuff from their excellent beans. While not all blends are organic or fair-trade, the beans are roasted locally at Tunnel City's location in North Adams.<br />
<br />
== Dining Halls ==<br />
<br />
All you can drink.<br />
<br />
Dean's Beans coffee, sometimes a bit diluted (especially in [[Dodd]].) Plus the cups are tiny, bring your own mug.<br />
<br />
== Goodrich Coffee Bar ==<br />
<br />
Small = $1.25, Large = $1.50<br />
<br />
They have nutmeg you can put in your coffee! Be warned, however, that the quality of the actual coffee has been poor to horrendous as of late.<br />
<br />
If there is "extreme caffeine" go for it, it's amazing.<br />
<br />
== Dunkin' Donuts ==<br />
<br />
Coffee that is absolutely delicious, reasonably priced and conveniently available at all hours of the day, or horrible-tasting, not worth the money, and too far away - depending on whom you ask. The Williamstown location, open from 5am to 10 pm, is near Colonial Plaza, which is either a bit of a walk or a short drive. The North Adams location, at the intersection of Rt. 2 and Eagle St., is open 24/7. Note that Dunkin' Donuts only takes cash, no credit or debit.<br />

Located in North Adams near MassMoCA (coincidence?). Excellent toasted muffins.<br />

<br />
A bit of a drive, but who doesn't need their Vermont fix every once in a while? Located off of Rte. 7 in Bennington. The coffee is actually Tunnel City, but the ceiling is gorgeous, the atmosphere comfortable, and the crowd composed of strangers.<br />

Mexico City Internship Program
2005-12-10T21:16:22Z
<p>Acordova: </p>
<hr />
<div>The Internship is an opportunity for a student to spend the summer in an unpaid internship with the Mexico City bureau of [http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3037881/site/newsweek/ Newsweek International]. The student will have the opportunity to help manage the bureau’s day-to-day affairs, conduct interviews, attend press conferences, conduct research into current issues in Mexican politics and assist the bureau chief in writing stories. The intern will be expected to work during standard business hours, but will have many opportunities to travel and experience life in Mexico City. The experience will provide exposure to the process of international news production and a strong understanding of Mexican political dynamics.<br />
<br />
The 2006 internship will be of particular importance because Mexico will hold federal and state elections on July 2. With multiple strong candidates currently in the running for president, the election could prove a pivotal moment in the history of the republic.<br />
<br />
Much of the success of the internship depends upon the intern’s ability to be self-sufficient and to create opportunities for him or herself. Mexico City is a vibrant metropolis, and there will always be more news stories than Newsweek has the space to cover. However, it is a polluted, overcrowded, and sprawling city, and interns will need to be able to deal with the stress of spending months in its urban heart (affordable housing can be arranged in the central historic district, which necessitates a 30-minute commute by subway to the bureau).<br />
<br />
Applicants should be familiar with Mexican politics (a background in history is particularly helpful), though a great deal will be learned on the job, such as the specific jargon of local and federal politics. They should be reasonably fluent in Spanish speaking, listening and reading comprehension; although the intern is responsible for reading all the five local dailies that arrive in the bureau, the text is not exactly high literature. A background in journalism is helpful. Also, all Newsweek articles will be in English, though the intern may occasionally need to write letters and emails in Spanish. The internship is typically a full-summer commitment (10-14 weeks). The intern will be eligible to receive funding through the [http://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php/Fellowships_and_other_cool_opportunities#OCC_Fellowships_.28A.26E.2C_.E2.80.9951.2C_.E2.80.9972.2C_.E2.80.9974.2C_.E2.80.9975.2C_Barsch.2C_Fox.2C_Kershaw.2C_Kraft.2C_Levien.2C_Marver.2C_Mead.2C_Dively.29 Alumni-Sponsored Fellowships] administered by the [http://www.williams.edu/resources/occ Office of Career Counseling].<br />

<hr />
<div>The snow has fallen, is falling or [http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=01267 will soon fall]. That means only one thing...ski season! <br />
(that is, alpine or downhill skiing)<br />
<br />
= Ski Areas =<br />
<br />
One question on everyone's mind: where to go? (in New England...let's not get everyone jealous or homesick by posting West Coast areas)<br />
<br />
== Jiminy Peak ==<br />
<br />
Chances are, you'll get here at least once during your time at Williams (particularly if you teach, take the Ski Patrol class or race). [http://jiminypeak.com Web Site]<br />
<br />
Pros: ~1000 ft. vertical drop, a high speed quad, and good bunny hill. They sell really cheap passes for Winter Study (some including rentals), so if you ever want to learn, this is the place - you'll be paying 10 times as much anywhere else.<br />
<br />
Cons: Two moderately challenging runs (Upper Lift Line and Jericho once the sun goes down). Can be cold/icy. Expensive if you don't get a Winter Study package.<br />
<br />
== Bosquet ==<br />
<br />
THE old-school ski area (the East Coast [http://www.hyak.net Hyak]). A [http://www.bousquets.com/trailmap.htm tiny] mountain outside of Pittsfield that has a ton of charm, from the ancient lodge to the wood-paneled lift chairs. [http://www.bousquets.com Web Site]<br />
<br />
== Catamount ==<br />
<br />
About 1+ hours south of Williamstown (especially if you go via Hancock instead of Pittsfield). [http://www.catamountski.com Web Site]<br />
<br />
Pros: Dirt cheap ([http://www.catamountski.com/rates/index.cfm $15 midweek]). Will probably take you the better part of the day to ski every single run.<br />
<br />
Cons: The [http://www.frommers.com/destinations/theberkshires/0989028400.html daunting] Catapult, with [http://www.forums.alpinezone.com/about2960.html pitches in excess of 60 percent], may be the [http://www.catamountski.com/mountain/Trail-map-and-trail-network.cfm steepest run in the Berkshires], but [http://216.250.243.13/discus2/messages/2508/3317.jpg it's] a bit overrated.<br />
<br />
== Berkshire East ==<br />
<br />
"Southern New England's largest and most varied ski mountain!" [http://www.berkshireeast.com/rates.php $25 night skiing and midweek]. [http://www.berkshireeast.com Web Site]<br />
<br />
== Okemo ==<br />
<br />
The nearest [http://www.okemo.com/okemowinter/ourmountain/trailmaps/printable_trailmap.asp big] mountain - but you pay for it - to the tune of [http://www.okemo.com/okemowinter/ratesandrentals/tixpassesprograms/lifttickets.asp $69 weekend lift tickets]. [http://www.okemo.com/okemowinter Web Site]<br />
<br />
== Killington ==<br />
<br />
About 2 hours north of campus, not far from Middlebury, it's the biggest ski area in New England. Not surprisingly, perhaps, it's also one of the [http://www.killington.com/liftticket.html most expensive] ski areas in New England. [http://www.killington.com Web Site]<br />
<br />
== Mad River Glen ==<br />
<br />
Say what you will about having no snowmaking, not allowing snowboarders, and having a single chair lift that takes 15 minutes to get to the top, [[Alan Cordova]] thinks that with the [http://www.madriverglen.com/deals/ crazy deals], random powder stashes, [http://wso.williams.edu/orgs/woc/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=1041&g2_serialNumber=2 strange sense of humor], and [http://www.madriverglen.com/coop cooperative (not corporate) ownership], MRG rocks.<br />
<br />
== Tuckerman Ravine ==<br />
<br />
The ultimate [http://timefortuckerman.com extreme skiing] destination in New England. Located in [http://www.tuckerman.org Tuckerman Ravine] of [http://www.mountwashington.com Mount Washington] in New Hampshire. Ski season begins in March (when the avalanches begin to lighten up) and usually continues through May.<br />
