Each year, Blackburn students pursue internships that expand their understanding of leadership, public service, and policy at every level. The Jason and Elizabeth Goggins Endowed Support Fund provides $2,500 annually to support a Blackburn student as they intern with the federal government in Washington, D.C. Expenses can be utilized for any expenses related to the internship including housing and travel.
