Dear colleagues,
Our friends at OpenStax (the major open textbook publisher located at Rice University in Houston) are looking for 10 students to join their internship program this Fall. This internship is paid and all travel
costs are covered. Some details from the application form:
“Interns will learn about current issues, debates, and advocacy work in higher education, travel to professional conferences, and publish blog posts sharing their perspectives and experiences. Both to broaden
their knowledge of education advocacy and to make sure that student voices are represented, interns will attend the annual Open Education Conference (Open Ed) this October in Phoenix. Each student will also develop a project that tackles an affordability or
accessibility issue on their campus. As a culmination of the project, students will be a part of our Creator Fest conference in March 2020 hosted in Houston, Texas. All of this work will happen alongside the other student interns, OpenStax team members, and
advocacy experts there to provide support and feedback.”
If you know of any KPU students who would be a good fit for this opportunity please feel free to direct them to the application form:

I am also happy to address any questions they may have (I am on the committee helping to adjudicate these applications).
Many thanks,
Rajiv
