There is not a restriction on where they go to school or degree program. We just really want those who have passion and have the skill set that mirrors the media internship.”

That would be the best place to find information. Also you can visit NWSSlivestock.com and read more about the internship program as well as see some of the past interns’ work on the NWSS Livestock blog.”
