Reynolds Center 2008 interns selected

The Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism has selected seven students from universities around the county for 10-week business journalism internships at major publications this summer.
Students were selected by the host publications in conjunction with the Reynolds Center, which funds the internships designed to help improve the quality of U.S. business journalism.
The students, universities and host publications are:

-- Elizabeth Campbell, Northwestern University, The Boston Globe
-- Cassandra Crockett, Yale University, The Salt Lake Tribune
-- Kate Diaz, Northwestern University, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
-- Amy Eagleburger, University of North Carolina, The Arizona Republic
-- Ashley Macha, Arizona State University, The Business Journal of Phoenix
-- Sonia Narang, University of California, Berkeley, San Jose Mercury News
-- Steven Overly, University of Maryland, The Plain Dealer in Cleveland.

“The success of our internship program initiated in summer 2007 underscored the relevance of bringing together quality students with publications that have shown a commitment to quality coverage of business,” said Andrew Leckey, Director of the Reynolds Center, which is based at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University. “The students greatly benefit not only the host, but their own promising careers in business journalism.”
