Women's Research and Education Institute
Congressional Fellowships on Women and Public Policy
Greetings all. I wanted to let our current students know about a program called the "Congressional Fellowships on Women and Public Policy." The program, sponsored by the Women's Research and Education Institute (WREI), supports "a select group of graduate student with a proven commitment to equity for women" who wish to gain experience in a Congressional office. The program lasts for 8 months, from Jan. '07 to Aug. '07. Fellows receive a stipend of $1,400 per month. For more information go to http://www.wrei.org/fellowships/index.htm. Deadline is May 19, 2006.
