Student Journalism contest
Gather.com has launched a national scholastic journalism competition. Two journalism students - one graduate student and one undergraduate - will each win a $1,000 scholarship, and. the top 10 contest finalists will win internships at The Huffington Post, either in New York or Los Angeles.
The scholarships will be awarded on Monday, May 15, 2006 to the students who best represent the new age of citizen journalism - and the contest will be judged by Arianna Huffington of The Huffington Post.
All participants must be full-time college or graduate students, and entries should portray a real life, eyewitness account or a personally researched story about a current event (news, politics, sports, etc.). Complete rules of the contest are posted on Gather.com at http://journalism.gather.com.
