Good afternoon everyone!

The Amnesty International Club at the University of Idaho is a student group that operates under the structure of the human rights organization Amnesty International, headquartered in London, England. The mission of this organization is to educate others about human rights abuses, advocate for policy reforms related to human rights, and fundraise for victims of human rights violations. While our parent organization works collaboratively with the chapter to identify initiatives, the Amnesty International Club at the University of Idaho acts independently when deciding what projects or initiatives it will pursue.

We are holding bi-weekly meetings beginning October 20th! We will be discussing officer positions, potential projects for this semester, more details about what we will be doing as a club and answering any questions you might have. Please email me or my co-chair Jake with any questions or with your contact information if you are interested in being added to our email list and attending our next meeting!

Good afternoon everyone, hope everything is well!!!

Kyle Slaughter, is an individual who oversees a summer student affairs internship in the Dean of Students Office at BYU. Based on our past applicants and interns, it appears that students in our program may be interested. The application is currently open and will close on February 8.

They will hire between one and three interns. The internships pay $16/hour, and they are really interested in students who would like to pursue student affairs as a profession (or who are considering it). The internship runs through summer, from May to August (there is some flexibility for start/end dates). Interns are expected to work 40 hours a week. Generally applicants have questions about housing—it is not provided through the internship, but is readily available over the summer months at reasonable prices.

Cheers!
