Finnegan Fellowships –
The James A. Finnegan Foundation has sponsored an annual essay competition for Pennsylvania college students for over six decades.
Winners receive placement in paid summer internships in Executive Branch positions in Harrisburg, for eight (8) to ten (10) weeks, a series of meetings with key public officials plus a cash award.
Alumni/ae include persons elected or appointed to local and state positions in Pennsylvania; a member of the Delaware Supreme Court; college professors, business entrepreneurs, and a myriad of attorneys.
We had 1 IUP selected last year – which was a first in many years.
