And all you can do is rub your eyes and smirk as Ramiro makes a snide comment about Lindsay Lohan. If you’ve ever wanted to know what it’s like behind the scenes of a radio station then these are great internship opportunities for you. If you are a college student and want to get college credit, then you should apply. These are unpaid internships, but if you need the credit and you love radio, then please apply.

Although Boston is a pretty prosperous city, there are still people in need; especially women. And that’s where Rosie’s Place comes in. Rosie’s Place is a homeless shelter in Boston that has been supporting and helping women since 1974. Many of the women are working and simply can’t make ends meet. About one-third of the women have children. At Rosie's place, they assist women with clothing, food, shelter, medical services, and educational and employment opportunities. If you want to help out your community, you should definitely volunteer or apply to be an intern!
