LAMP Accepting Applications Soon
Attention Sophomores and Juniors:
The Liberal Arts and Management Program (LAMP) will be accepting applications from September 1 – October 1. Apply online at www.indiana.edu/~lamp.
Are you interested in majoring in the College of Arts and Sciences but also learning about business, management and leadership? Do you enjoy studying multiple points of view? If you answered “yes” then LAMP might be the right place for you. What is LAMP you ask? LAMP is an honors interdisciplinary program offered by the College of Arts and Sciences in cooperation with the Kelley School of Business. It allows students the opportunity to have a major in the College but take classes in the business school that enhance management and leadership skills. LAMP students are drawn from the full range of majors within the College—from Biochemistry to Theater & Drama. Students can complete either a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science, and many LAMP students pursue a double major.
At LAMP students don’t just learn inside the classroom, we provide a wide variety of co curricular programs for students to get involved in. During any given week a student could attend a Master Class with the CEO of Clorox, have lunch with the Sudan Desk Officer from the US State Department , and attend a workshop on preparing for a career fair. We encourage students to pursue all their passions, whether that is multiple majors, overseas study, or internship experience. We are here to make sure that students can get the most out of their 4 years at Indiana University.

Internship with the IRS
Application deadline: Wednesday April 22.
The Washington Center is seeking applicants for internship opportunities with the Internal Revenue Service in Florence, Kentucky for summer 2009. An internship with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) would provide students with substantial financial assistance as well as housing in Florence, KY for the duration of the internship. For priority consideration at the IRS, students need to submit materials by Wednesday April 22, 2009. After that date, applicants will be considered on a space-available basis.
This program gives interns the opportunity to develop skills, make professional contacts, build their resumes and explore future career opportunities within the IRS. Students will need to commit to 10-weeks at the agency, beginning in late May.
With the IRS, students are given a lot of leverage to make their own projects and pursue their own interests. Work will be substantive in nature; the exact tasks will vary by major and interest area.
Applicants must:
* be U.S. citizens.
* have a 3.5 GPA or above.
* be enrolled as a junior or senior undergraduate student in fall 2009.
Desired Majors: Humanities, History, Political Science, Communications, Business, Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Finance, Liberal Arts, and other related majors.
Compensation: Interns will receive financial assistance covering the cost of housing and will also be awarded a bimonthly stipend. Those who do not need housing in Florence will have their stipends adjusted accordingly.
Application Procedures: Send a resume, a short statement of interest and an unofficial transcript to The Washington Center's Office of Federal Relations at federalrelations@twc.edu by Wednesday April 22.
With any questions about the IRS opportunities available through The Washington Center, please contact Danielle Gaquin at danielle.gaquin@twc.edu or (202)238-7906.

The American Play
Suzan-Lori Parks (who visited IU last year as our Ralph L.
Collins Memorial Lecturer) has written a play that truly espouses her
vision. "History-the destruction and creation of it through theater pieces
and how Black people fit into all of this-is my primary concern."
Meet the Foundling Father, an African American man dressed as Abraham
Lincoln as he works the Hall of Wonders allowing tourists of all kinds to
"assassinate" him over and over. He is quite chummy with the regulars. As
THE AMERICA PLAY dissects Abraham Lincoln's story it opens up a great hole
in our culture. This is an opportunity to see what's in the hole and share
in a truly unique theatrical experience.
Directed by Edris Cooper-Anifowoshe, THE AMERICA PLAY opens Friday, March
27, at 7:30 p.m. and continues Saturday, March 28, and Tuesday through
Saturday, April 4.
In addition to the performance, we invited you to Circle Sunday. This
Sunday, March 29, Professor Marlon M. Bailey will present "Buried History in
THE AMERICA PLAY." Circle Sunday takes place at 3:00 p.m. Sunday March 29 in
the Wells-Metz Theatre. This event is free and open to anyone. We hope you
will spread the word.
No matter what performance you see, we invited you back Tuesday, March 31,
after the show for a talk-back with the cast and director (maybe a designer
or two) where you can ask questions and share your thoughts about the show.
Ticket prices range from $12-$20. For ticket information call the IU
Auditorium Box Office at 855-1103 or Order tickets online at
theatre.indiana.edu.
For more information about the show, meet the cast, see the press release

Another Letter From Mimi
Dear Scholars,

Asian Pacific American Heritage Month - Annual Creative Writing Contest 2009
"The Many Meanings of Diversity: Challenges, Paradoxes, and Opportunities"
Deadline for Submission: Tuesday, March 24, 2009.
The Indiana University Asian Culture Center, with co-sponsorship from the IU
Creative Writing Program, Hutton Honors College, Office of Multicultural
Initiatives, and The Office of Vice President for International Affairs is
proud to announce its annual Asian Pacific American Heritage Creative
Writing Contest.
Who can submit? The contest is open to all IUB undergraduate students.
Contest Theme:
The broad theme for the contest is "The Many Meanings of Diversity:
Challenges, Paradoxes, and Opportunities." We are looking for creative
examinations of issues in ethnicity, race, gender, identity, disability,
age, class, religion, and diversity in the American experience through three
genres in creative writing: short fiction, poetry, or creative nonfiction.
This year's theme is meant not only to have the contestants think about the
varied definitions of diversity, but also to examine how these apply or
relate to Asian Americans.
Criteria for Judging and Prizes:
The submissions will be evaluated on the creative quality of their
expressions as they address this topic. Emphasis will be placed on the
literary merit of the pieces in determining the winners.
Prizes for the first, second, and third place winners include:
1st Prize - IPOD Touch (16 GB) plus reading the essay on March 27, 2009
2nd prize - IPOD Nano
3rd prize - $100 Gift card
All winning entries will be posted in the ACC website. The winners will be
announced at the APA Heritage Month Opening Lunch Reception, Friday, March
27, 2009 at 12 noon, Presidents' Room, University Club, Indiana Memorial
Union.
Guidelines:
Deadline for Submission: Tuesday, March 24, 2009.
You may submit your entries to: Asian Culture Center, 807 E. Tenth Street,
Bloomington, IN 47408, fax it to 856-5030 or email to acc@indiana.edu.
You may submit a short story, a poem, or a creative nonfiction* piece. There
will be no separate winners in the three categories. The entries will be
judged by a Creative Writing Program faculty member, who will select the top
three winners irrespective of the genre. You may submit up to one entry for
each category. Each entry should have two title pages as follows: the first
should include the title, author's name, permanent address, phone number,
email address, and include: "Asian Pacific American Heritage Creative
Writing Contest."
The second title page should include the title only. The author's name
should not appear on the manuscript except on the first title page. All
submissions should use a 12-point size and should be typed or printed on a
letter-quality printer. Prose (both creative nonfiction and short
fiction) must be double-spaced and should not exceed 1,000 words; poetry
must be single-spaced should not exceed 25 lines.
* Creative nonfiction is defined as writing that employs literary techniques
and artistic vision usually associated with fiction or poetry
to report on actual persons and events.
