- <p> Some summer jobs are just a way to earn money. But for 23
- college students who are willing to brave the heat of New York
- City, it's also a chance to learn firsthand how we produce our
- magazines. Eighteen of our interns have spent the summer at
- SPORTS ILLUSTRATED, PEOPLE and other publications. Here at TIME,
- five labor right alongside their professional counterparts in
- different departments. Last month, as a reporter-researcher in
- the Nation section, Stanford senior Frank Quaratiello
- interviewed a survivor of the United Airlines DC-10 crash in
- Sioux City, Iowa, and is writing the Milestones section for this
- issue. Karla Bruner, a University of Missouri at Columbia
- graduate, has researched stories ranging from Cuba and Argentina
- to Burma and Greece for our World section. As managing editor
- of the Harvard International Review, Mark Suzman has come in
- contact with public figures like Jacques Delors, president of
- the European Commission. Now Suzman is broadening his experience
- on our International editions, where he has worked on an article
- about Gorbachev's trip to West Germany.

- <p> No stranger to deadlines, Alexander Sutton recalls having
- 30 minutes to decide which of 700 pictures from Louis
- Farrakhan's controversial 1988 visit to Philadelphia to publish
- in the Daily Pennsylvanian. Working in TIME's picture
- department, Sutton has been combing through mountains of film
- each week to find the right images for such stories as a recent
- look at the plight of the world's refugees. In our New York
- bureau, David Muhlbaum of Middlebury College handles reporting
- on subjects as varied as the prospects for economic stability
- in Argentina and the consequences of posing for Playboy.
- </p>
- <p> What do our summer staffers make of the TIME experience?
- "TIME has such incredible resources," says Sutton. "Everything
- runs 24 hours a day." Adds Bruner: "There's something new every
- week. You never know what's going to happen next."
