Hi LAHers,
If you have participated in an internship or internships, please complete the Internship google doc:
We are trying to track how many of you participate in internships (which should be 100%) the types of internships you are participating in and if they are paid or unpaid. As we are working on raising additional funds to support you who are doing unpaid internships. Without this data, it will be difficult to encourage donors to give us internship funding.
We are trying to build a LAH network using LinkedIn in a effort to keep up with you when you are here at UT and when you become Alumni.
COLAJ (College of Liberal Arts Journal), which is a part of LAUNCH (Liberal Arts Undergraduate Research Chapter), is looking for editorial board members and submissions! The information session will be Sunday February 17 in Joynes Reading Room 007A and will cover the requirements to be a reviewer and to submit an article to the journal. Contact the Editors-in-Chief Monica Castellanos (mzc@utexas.edu) or Sarah Lusher (sarah.lusher17@gmail.com) if you are not able to make the session but are interested.
Texas Exes is the official alumni association for the University of Texas. This year, the Texas Exes awarded nearly $2 million to deserving University of Texas students. You can apply for Texas Exes Scholarships for Current Students by filling out the UT Austin Continuing & Transfer Scholarship Application. In order to be considered for Texas Exes Scholarships, that application must be submitted by March 1st.
Please note that in order to be considered for Texas Exes Scholarships, you must select “Texas Exes Scholarships” under “Scholarship Choices” in the scholarship application. You will also then need to enter the specific code for each scholarship you wish to apply for. Those codes, and descriptions of all Texas Exes Scholarships for Current Students, can be found by visiting the Named Scholarship section of the Texas Exes website. You’ll want to look at both “Specific Scholarships for Current Students” and “General Scholarships for Current Students.”
LAHers, We are trying to keep track of the internships you are participating in. For a variety of reasons this information is critical to us. One big reason is -if we see that many of you are participating in unpaid internships, it might help us raise funds to increase our unpaid internship stipends. Please fill out your internship information on the Google Doc Internship Form as soon as possible.

I need a couple of LAHers to volunteer to serve as LAH Student Ambassadors to meet and greet prospective students and their families at our LAH Information Sessions this spring semester. Your responsibilities would be to speak with our guests about your experiences in LAH, UT, dorm life, etc.. basically everything about being a student at UT and in LAH. The sessions begin Friday, January 25 from 10:00-11:00 in the LAH back seminar room and run every Monday and Friday until April 29. (not during Spring Break) If you can make it for both days great! If not, that’s ok as long as I have other student representatives. Please email me: samorous@austin.utexas.edu if you are interested. Thanks!
DATE: Sunday, January 20
