Working with the National Student Investigative Reporting Network (NSIRN) was
one of the most valuable experiences I could have gotten out of this program.
The work was interesting and I truly felt like I was a part of history in the making. I
became a more professional journalist and made great connections. You have to
absolutely be a self-starter in order to succeed at NSIRN. I’d recommend this
internship to students who enjoy doing a lot of research and are able to work with
very little direction. For me, I saw this as freedom to pursue any angle I wanted.
