A quick reminder that the application deadline for the Spring 2011 Glimpse Correspondents Program is just under two weeks away: November 28, 2010. This is a chance for students, volunteers, teachers, and other travelers to get stories and photography published at a National Geographic supported publication, and get paid for it.

Powered by Matador, and supported in part by the National Geographic Society, the Glimpse Correspondents Program provides talented writers and photographers with a $600 stipend as well as one on one editorial training and support to complete an independent journalistic work based on their experience abroad.

To learn more, visit: http://glimpse.org/correspondents , and please feel free to pass this email along to any other study abroad offices or individuals who might be interested in our program.

I hope to work with your students this Spring! Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.

Sincerely,

Sarah Menkedick
