Chicago Career Fair – This Tuesday!
The Idealist.org career fair is this tuesday! We’ll be there (from the reminder email):
The fair will be held on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 from 11am-3pm and will take place at Roosevelt University, in the Auditorium building at 430 S. Michigan Chicago, IL 60605. The event is generously hosted by Roosevelt University and cosponsored by the Young Nonprofit Professionals Network of Chicago.
We’re expecting over 1500 individuals to attend the event so plan what materials you bring accordingly.

We have a number of volunteer positions and unpaid internships open. I cannot wait to get to the windy city!
New Internships!
Ahead of the Idealist career fair in Chicago, we’ve added three new internships!
Our ongoing Philosopher Teacher internship remains open, but depending on partnerships with summer programs, we may not have much room until the Fall.
Our new positions are:
Outreach interns will build connections with schools, researchers, authors, bloggers, and the general community.
Fundraising interns will research grants, build connections with potential donors, and bring their own creativity to the table to help our organization raise funds.
Research interns will explore and suggest studies to examine the many impacts of a philosophy for children program (in particular, self esteem, attitudes towards school, test performance, intelligence and conflict resolution).
All of our internships are unpaid (unless our budget situation changes). We can work with your school to arrange academic credit.
If you’d like to build your resume while helping out with an amazing cause, get in touch!
