Internship Description:
At Lone Pine Capital, the Steamboat Scholar will work with the investment team and will have primary responsibilities conducting research on publicly traded companies through conducting channel checks, attending industry conferences, meeting with management teams and gathering and analyzing industry data. Ultimately, the Scholar will offer his/her opinion to the investment team and help evaluate
whether or not an attractive investment opportunity exists. The Steamboat Scholar will have the opportunity to work with and learn from various members of the investment team, which will give the
Scholar exposure to the different industry sectors and global markets in which Lone Pine invests. The Scholar will attend the weekly analyst meetings in which investment ideas and the portfolio are discussed.

2. "Collaborating with Native Communities in the Arctic From Ethics to Practical Considerations"
Medeia Csoba DeHass, NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Wednesday, Nov 2
4:00pm, 125 Haldeman

Medeia Csoba-DeHass is the recipient of a 2-year NSF Postdoctoral
Research Fellowship working with Lower Kenai Sugpiaq people in collaboration with community members at her fieldwork site in Nanwalek, Alaska. The community is interested in documenting
their Sugpiaq heritage for future generations. Dr. DeHass is being co-sponsored by the Institute of Arctic Studies and the Native American Studies at Dartmouth and is working with Professor Sergei Kan in Anthropology.

3. Termly Faculty Dinner

Date: November 2nd at 6pm at the NAH
For those of you new to Faculty Dinner,  every term NADs invite their professors to the NAH for dinner. This is an opportunity for you and your prof to get to know one another better.  Please make good use of this opportunity!  Getting to know your prof. outside of class helps you!

How does it help you? In the short term, casual conversation with your prof. allows you both to see all that you have in common and to learn new and different things about each other.  This personal connection can actually improve your grade! In the longer term, you will be looking for profs to be project and thesis advisors, and recommendation letter writers.  If they know you on a personal level they will be more likely to remember you and want to help you.

So please invite your prof. to dinner! We generally prefer that each student invite just one of their profs so that they have time to get to know each other.  But sometimes multiple students ask the same prof.  So, sometimes a student will actually invite two of their profs.  Keep in mind though, the purpose of the dinner is to give you an opportunity to get to know your professor better.

In short,

1) Ask your prof to dinner--and hand or email them the invite so that they have the info
2) Once they've told you they can be there, email the NAP to let us know you will be there (this is a very important step in the process and one I encourage you to practice)
3) Show up for the dinner, chat with your prof., eat dinner, and have a good time!
4) Reap the benefits

Let Jeanne in the NAP know if you have questions.

9. Men of Dartmouth Nominations
Dennis Zeveloff '12 and Farzeen Mahmud '12 are looking to interview senior men from the Class
of 2012 to invite them to speak at the annual Men of Dartmouth panel, which
is on Nov. 16, 2011. 
Message from Farzeen:
Every human being has lived a life, and therefore has a story - we are simply looking for folks who would like to share their story in an accessible way to others, in a way that shows their reflection upon & appreciation of themselves and growth in their time in this community. The point of such an event is to intentionally give attention to a few members of this community for a period of time, whilst still giving attention to the many who will gather there, in order to demonstrate that we can come closer
together when we know more about each others' lives.
If there is a person that you think would be willing to share their story in such a context, please let me or Dennis know so that we can reach out to them. We will keep their names confidential throughout the interview/outreach process.

To prepare top candidates to pursue research in health services and epidemiology, the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics (LDI) and the Health Care Management Department of the Wharton School (HCMD), University of Pennsylvania are seeking applicants for our summer research program for underrepresented minority undergraduate students and interested others. Candidates from minority groups that are underrepresented in the field of health services (African-American, Hispanic/Latino, Native American, and Pacific Islander) are particularly encouraged to apply.

The Summer Undergraduate Minority Research (SUMR) program, in its thirteenth year, provides rising sophomores, juniors and seniors with an opportunity to receive a generous monthly stipend to conduct health services and/or epidemiology research on a topic of their choice, under the guidance of Penn faculty. The purpose of SUMR is to prepare and encourage top students to pursue academic and research careers in health services research and epidemiology.

17. Udall Foundation's Internship and Scholarship Opportunities:
The Internship Program is a ten-week summer internship in Washington, DC, for Native American and Alaska Native students who wish to learn more about the federal government and issues affecting Indian country. The internship is fully funded: the Foundation provides round-trip airfare, housing, per diem for food and incidentals, and a stipend at the close of the program. Interns work in congressional and agency offices where they have opportunities to research legislative issues important to tribal communities, network with key public officials and tribal advocacy groups, experience an insider's view of the federal government, and enhance their understanding of nation-building and tribal self-governance.  The complete application package must be received by January 31, 2012, at the Udall Foundation. (http://udall.gov/OurPrograms/NACInternship/NACInternship.aspx)

The Udall Scholarship is awarded to college sophomores and juniors pursuing careers related to Tribal Public Policy, Native Health Care, or the Environment. In addition to the $5,000 financial award, Udall Scholars also get to attend the Udall Scholar Orientation and are immediately plugged into a growing and active alumni network. Tribal public policy includes fields related to tribal sovereignty, governance, law, education, justice, natural resource management, cultural preservation and revitalization, economic development, and other areas affecting Native American communities. Native American health care includes health care administration, social work, medicine, research, and other disciplines. The online application must be submitted to the Foundation by March 5, 2012, but individual institutions may have earlier deadlines. Interested students can contact their campus' Udall faculty representative for more information. (http://udall.gov/OurPrograms/MKUScholarship/MKUScholarship.aspx)

Visit their website at http://www.udall.gov/ to learn more about the internship and scholarship opportunities. On the website, you'll find videos about both programs, tips for applying, and Alumni Mentors you can contact with any questions you might have.

In the 2012 Fellowships, financial support of up to $40,000 annually for actual expenses for the senior year of college and the first year of graduate study will be provided by the Department of State through the Woodrow Wilson Foundation. This funding is to help cover tuition costs first then room and board, books, mandatory fees, and one round trip ticket per academic year between the Fellow's residence and his/her academic institution, pending availability of funds. Participating schools provide financial support in the second year of graduate study based on need.
