摘要:
This experience report argues that Technical and Professional Communication internships are strong sites for students to engage in social justice-oriented work. Yet, we must address embedded inequities that exist within internship programs themselves. This report details an Internship Fellowship Program that offers both financial and social support for TPC students pursuing such internships. Successes and challenges are discussed, as well as recommendations for implementing similar initiatives at other institutions.
