National Geographic is looking for some correspondents for a new product. I have no idea what the usage rights will be for materials, but at least they are paying a stipend to people selected for the program. See below to find out more. Keith Begin forwarded message: I'm the editor in chief of National Geographic Glimpse, and I'm writing because I wanted to let you know about an exciting opportunity for your students to hone their skills and jump-start a career in international journalism. I'm thrilled to announce the Glimpse Correspondents Program, a new opportunity for talented students who will be living or studying abroad in Fall 2008. Our goal with the program is to identify the best and brightest storytellers, and to give them a mainstream audience for their work. We hope you will help us spread the word by forwarding this message to as many of your students as possible, and encouraging them to apply. More information about the program is available at glimpse.org/correspondents. What is Glimpse?: Glimpse is a new nonprofit National Geographic platform (print magazine and website) about the experiences of young Americans abroad. We provide professional editorial support to help students learn the craft of storytelling, with the larger goal of using stories to inspire others to care about the world. Glimpse has offered students a platform for their stories for the past six years. Now with National Geographic, we are hoping to take our work to the next level. To read past stories, visit www.glimpse.org<http://www.glimpse.org>. (The new and improved website will be up soon!) What is The Correspondents Program?: The Correspondents Program is for especially talented students specializing in writing, photography or video. We will select 15 correspondents and each will receive a $600 stipend, a professional editor, and guaranteed publication in Glimpse (exceptional pieces may also be featured in other National Geographic platforms). The demands of the program are not extreme, but we do expect our correspondents program to commit to a professional editorial process. How can your students get involved? Students should visit www.glimpse.org/correspondents<http://www.glimpse.org/correspondents> and register their email address to receive the official application announcement. When the application goes live in early-May, we'll provide a forwardable email tool. Again, we are very excited about this program, and we look forward to working with your students! Please don't hesitate to email or call me with any questions.
