The Ullman Memorial Internship was established by the family of the late Sara Ullman, who was a student at Ohio University. It is designed to help develop students’ interests in human rights and international affairs by arranging and funding a summer internship at Amnesty International in Washington DC. This tremendous opportunity brings out some our most talented and accomplished students. Congratulations Jessica, and best of luck in Washington!
