April 17th: Last Day To Submit Internship Paperwork
Today is the last day to submit a site offer form and student data sheet if you wish to intern this summer. I am teaching from 9 am to 11:15 am and then going to lunch. At noon, I will begin reviewing submitted paperwork. If I find problems, I will contact you via email with the necessary corrections.
I am leaving for the day around 2 pm. You may submit paperwork via the COMMINTERNS website until 11:59 pm. Paperwork submitted after 11:59 pm today will be rejected and not reviewed.
I will be in my office from 12 pm to 2 pm today. You are welcome to stop by or call me at 724-840-8295. I will not be on Zoom during office hours.
Getting paperwork in by the due date is no guarantee of approval. It is never a good idea to wait till the last minute to submit.
Dr. Lenze
Monday April 17th Deadline
Deadline
Your internship paperwork (Site Offer Form & Student Data Sheet) are due no later than Monday, April 17th at 11:59 pm. If your paperwork is not submitted by then, for any reason, you will not be approved for an internship this summer.
Alternative to The Internship
If you were hoping to graduate and did not secure an internship for this summer, you should speak to your advisor about changing your major to Communications Media: Media Studies which does not require an internship.
Things to Remember
- You only have 30 minutes to enter data on the Student Data Sheet. Write it out first and copy and paste it onto the form.
- All of your hours must be logged between May 8th and August 4th. You can start later and end sooner but your hours must be logged between those two dates. You may work after August 4th but those hours will NOT count toward your internship requirements. If your Site Offer Form or Student Data Sheet do not have compliant start and end dates, the internship will be rejected.
- You must show on the Student Data Form a schedule that clearly and specifically shows how you will reach 320 hours at the site and 40 hours working on COMM 493 coursework.
- Electronic signatures on the Site Offer Form will be rejected. The form must be signed by hand. Print it. Have your site supervisor sign it. Scan it or take a photo. Submit it.
- Do not send forms to Dr. Lenze via email. Submit them via the COMMINTERNS website.
- Registration for COMM 493 will take place during the first week of May. You will get an email from the department telling you how to register. You will be assigned to a section. You will not be permitted to choose your professor.
Dr. Lenze Office Hours Canceled Today
Just a reminder that my office hours are canceled today so I can attend my father’s funeral. You may call me between 11:15 am and 4 pm with questions regarding internships, but I will not have access to a computer and I can only answer general questions. I appreciate your understanding.
