DESCRIPTION OF JOB DUTIES
Student interns and volunteers are an integral part of Inscape
Journal, and we invite all students to visit us and consider joining the staff. Interns may choose to be general staff or apply to be editors or assistant editors, team leaders, or logistics and marketing coordinators if there is an opening and they have the requisite skills. Interns who are members of the general staff will learn how to approach literary and visual art submissions as well as learn skills as members of a logistics or marketing team. Interns in editorial leadership positions may help journal’s masthead editors teach writing and editing skills to junior staff as well as train them to approach and evaluate literature and visual art.
Because Inscape involves so much more than reading submissions, interns and volunteers also experience how the publishing world works through direct experience with mentors on staff. Under the direction of the faculty advisor, interns may choose to complete a professional portfolio over the course of the semester and participate in an oral and written exit interview designed to help them reflect on their Inscape experience. ENGL 394R interns are required to complete the professional portfolio.
