Throughout his 30 years as The Wall Street Journal's
Editorial Page Editor, Bob Bartley inspired principled and original
thinking that changed and shaped the society in which we all live. He
also devoted attention to teaching and motivating talented young people,
many of whom have gone on to careers in journalism at the Journal and
elsewhere. The Bartley fellowships are consistent with that legacy.
Bob Bartley achieved many honors during his long tenure here including a Pulitzer Prize and, shortly before his death in December 2003, the Presidential Medal of Freedom. In awarding that medal, President Bush cited Bob as "one of the most influential journalists in American history." The Robert L. Bartley fellowships will help to perpetuate not just Bob's memory but above all the principles and priorities to which he devoted his distinguished career.
Eligibility and Requirements
The fellowships, consisting of paid internships, will be provided to young thinkers and writers whose views are broadly consistent with Bob Bartley's philosophy and who aspire to careers in journalism. Applicants should be beginning journalists, upperclassmen or graduate students with reporting and writing backgrounds at their school newspapers or elsewhere. It is essential that they be familiar with, and interested in, the ideas for which the Journal editorial page stands. As many as five fellows will be selected each year through an application process that will be judged by senior members of our editorial board. Fellows will work as writers and editors on the Journal's opinion pages—
editorial, op-ed, Leisure & Arts—in the U.S., Europe or Asia.
Responsibilities
Bartley Fellows will assist in researching and writing editorials, editing op-ed articles, editing Leisure & Arts page features, and editing letters to the editor for the Journal and our Web site, OpinionJournal.com.
When does the program start?
Start and finish dates are flexible, though we anticipate that most Fellows will work during the summer months. The fellowship begins in June and runs through the end of August.
Guidelines and Application Deadline
If you'd like to be considered, please send a cover letter, resume and your best clips via email to: bartleyfellows@wsj.com
or mail them to:
