Support student news interns at WPSU-FM.Real world on-the-job experience can make a great impact on a college graduate's job possibilities. WPSU is helping to build the radio news broadcast pipeline, as well as providing Penn State students with experiences they can point to on their resumes.

Each spring semester a student reporter is offered a $1,000 paid internship funded by a donor to cover stories that will air on WPSU-FM while learning the business of being a radio journalist.

Our goal is to match that amount during #GivingTuesday to provide funding for a second intern in the fall 2019 semester. Our interns tell us that these radio journalism experiences are valued because of the experiences it provides.

Find the WPSU campaign page on givingtuesday.org to support WPSU internships.
