Feminist Internship Opportunity
Looking for an opportunity to work at an upcoming feminist magazine in Chicago and beyond? KEEP READING! Wisecrack is looking for college students across the nation(and especially in Chicago and the surrounding area!) to be Campus Liasons in the upcoming school year.
Wisecrack is a new independent quarterly publication, designed to support female comedians, discuss gender and comedy and use humor as an agent of social change.
As a Campus Liaison, you would:
-Connect potentially interested students,professors and campus groups with Wisecrack (through flyers, word of mouth and informative emails)Applicants must:
-Help us stay "in the loop" with what's happening at your campus relating to gender and comedy (to possibly be featured in Wisecrack)
-Gain valuable experience and get involved with a new feminist publication
-Be interested in gender and comedy (gender studies, theater and journalism students encouraged to apply)
-Be available to help for the duration of 2009
-Have an hour each week to dedicate to helping us out (whenever you're free)
-Be motivated and reliable
To apply, please send a letter of interest and resume to sara.wisecrackzine@gmail.com
Being a Campus Liaison is fairly easy. By participating, you'll be joining an exciting micro-movement of comedians, feminists, writers, activists and people who like to fold paper! You'll gain valuable experience and networking, gain new skills, and have a cool internship to list on your resume. Yay!
This is a really easy way to start putting feminist theory into practice, it's not too awfully time consuming, and it's mostly online stuff. Feel free to drop me an e-mail if you have any questions or comments!
Thanks!

And the downside: it's unpaid, right? Sorry, gotta keep a roof over my head and eat. Otherwise I'd love to.
