Another incentive for being involved with Florida Free Culture: Creative Commons is offering a paid internship for a student involved with a Free Culture group. This sounds like a great way for CC to find knowledgeable interns and build experience among tomorrow’s graduates. One Lessig brainchild looking out for another… (Except that FreeCulture.org was founded independently of Lessig, despite borrowing his book’s name.) Anyway, here’s the scoop:

Free Culture Marketing/Media Internship
This internship is open to students involved in their colleges’ Free Culture club. Creative Commons is currently accepting resumes from those students interested in interning in the San Francisco office. This paid internship will focus on a grass roots effort, and/or media development to encourage the reuse of content. Duties will also include working on a “street team” campaign to other Free Culture club members.
This position will be offered to a non-law student.

Internship terms:

• Spring: Mid-January through late April
  Applications should be sent between October 1st and December 1st
• Summer: Late May through August
  Applications should be sent between January 1st and April 1st
• Fall: Mid-August/early September through December

Creative Commons does offer compensation for internships. If your school offers a stipend for internships, this factor is figured into the compensation.
