Amnesty International summer internship applications are due Feb. 13.

The Sara Katherine Ullman Memorial Internship was established by the family of the late Sara Ullman, who at the time of her death was a student in the College of Arts & Sciences at Ohio University. This endowment provides an opportunity for a student to participate in a summer internship with Amnesty International in Washington, DC.  It is designed to enable young persons to express values and interests in human rights and international affairs.
