��The Atlanta Urban Corp is a cooperative program for bringing
bright, motivated young people into an intimate involvement
with Atlanta's municipal government and inter-city problems.
The primary emphasis is aimed at interim employment of college
students in Metropolitan government positions and in non-profit
agencies.
Available jobs range from administrative posts in city government
to social involvement in inter-city communities. The pro gram
offers a service-learning experience that acts as an extension
of the student's college education by exposing him to " real life"
problems by offering him a chance to temper idealism with actuality.
Internships provide not only a source of funds for the student,
it is also an educationally relevant experience that simultaneously
serves the city and its people.
'-
The Urban Corps is administered by participating agencies and
Atlanta's college students. It is funded mainly by the Federal
Work-Study Program through participating colleges. Students
that are financially eligible are funded 80% by fueir colleges and
20% by the employing agency. Atlanta businessmen and foundations
contribute funds for administration and interns not eligible for
work-study fundin g . The program is staffed almost entirely by
students~
Employing agencies include: the City of Atlanta, Fulton County
Government, DeKalb County Goyernment, Southern Regional Education
Board, VISTA, Soutnwest YMCA, Grady Hospital, Atlanta L:ilrary,
·
Boys Club, and others.
Stud ents eli gibl e for the Urban Corps include entering fr e s hmen
through graduate students. Interested students should contact
their Student Gov ernmen t Office o r apply dir ectly to Atlan ta
Urban Co r ps, 30 Cour tland St r ee t N.E. , Atl an ta, Georgia 30303 .
Tel e pho n e : (404) 525 - 2662.
Mayo r I van Allen say s o f the Ur ban Co rps:
" Our yg.,ung people and our ci ti e s can no l onger
affo r ~ to b e s t r a ngers. The Ur ban Co rps o ffers
students a chance t o be in the mainstream of
Atlanta's problems and po tenti al s."

T o : Mr . Ralph Hulsey
From: Dan Sweat
The S ummer Urban Project Outline by your dep rtrnent is very
encouraging . It certainly indicates that much thought has been
given to sam real ne ds of the department which cannot be met
with day-to-d y r gular personnel.
I feel th t stud nt interns through the Urban C o rps could provide
a re l service in thi s area.
l hope that we can get other departm nts to thinking this progreseiv ly.

�ATLANTA URBAN CORPS CONCEPT
The Atlanta Ut:ban Co:cps is a unique program in f-merica. Its goal is to
pr ovide the broad spectrum of college students Hith an opportunity to become involved in urban areas, applying their academic kno1:·J ledge, their youth, and their
enthusiasum.
1'!1e program is a co-operative effort of the City of f' tlanta, The Atlanta
area collegeG, Federal Government, private enterprise, metropolitan agencies,
and the Atlanta area college students.
Th is cooperation, the belief t ;1at the college student should play a significant role in t h e policy making, and the involvement of private enterprise, makes
the /\.tlanta U.;;·ban Corps a potential "model" prozram fo:c the nation.
'i't1e Atlanta Urban Corps does not try to expause .2: philosophy but rather it
opens doo:.:-s ·=. It p r ovides the oppo:.:-tunity to live ~-1 ith the problems that plague
Ame~ican cities today. It is demandin 6 on the individual's hi3h flying ideas 8nd
deman<l n a harsh look into the microscope 0£ Amer ican social institutions.
11
It is unlikely that the f>.tlantc.1 Urban c ,..,:;:·ps ,-Jill p:c oduce " instant solutions;' .
But it is on its (my to involving youth in constructive. educational channels.
Our ;::oal is to help people i'.'esi.1ape their t h inkin:.:; .sbcut youth and the city, and
to ca}:· e.
�LEGAL ASPECTS

�ATLANTA URBAN CORPS
INTERNSHIP DEVELOPMENT PHILOSOPHY
1.
Dual Goals of Internship
A. Service Thr ough Agency to Community.
B. Learning E:tperience (for Student, University, and Agency).
11. Needs of the Agency
A. Relevancy of Internship to the Agency's Mission--the intern
must be involved in a project through which he can express
his creativi.ty and serve as a productiu.e source of agency
output, not as a monitoring recipient of agency information
(a non-contributing educational role).
111 . Needs of the Intern
A. To _Know Exactly wbat His Assignment Is--provide him with a
list of objectives and primary responsibilities; also
develop a schedule, but one that the student and agency can
change together and personalize as he grows into the internship ie. outline a planned approach, the mechanics of the
assignment, but leave plent y of room for the intern to express his creativity and for modifications.
B. Clearly Specify His Agency Personnel Resources--this should
be someone the student knows he can go to with his pr oblems
not vice- versa; a student advisor should aid the student in
r eflecting on his internship exper i ence and the r eby assist
him in relating it to his education.
l V. Interaction Dynamics- - The Subtle Appr oach
A. Help the Agency Define Chal l enging , Ye t Realistic Internships - -le t the agency describe i ts needs , then ass i st i n
meeti ng t hose needs with i nte r nships that mee t the nee ds
of t he i nt ern as well.
1. ) Prevent As s ignment s That Requi r e Too Lit tle of t he
Intern-- eg . an err and- boy r ol e, or job pos iti on devoi d
of educ a tional signi ficanc e , too limited i n scope.
2.) Prevent Assignments Tha t Requi r e Too Much-- eg . an
ana l ys i s pr oblem whose pr opensity exceeds an i nter n ' s
educa t ional compe t ence or time l imit ,
V. Evaluati on
(This sec ti on i s i ncluded with t he philosophy of Internship
Development because the development of a s ound system of selfevaluati on is an essenti a l phase of our program.)
A. Standard Eva luation Forms f or I nterns (Counselors and Agencies)
B. Some Form of Final Written Report by the I ntern
1.) Type of Report Dependent on Type of I nternship
a.) Research projects will require extensive repor ts.
b.) Non- research projects will require less extensive
repor ts, but the educational relevance of t h ese
internsh i ps may be en t irely dependent on the e ffort
t he inter n spends i n producing it.
C. The Va lue of Evaluation
1.) Va lue t o At lanta Ur ban Cor ps --these r eport s will s erve
a s the major source of f eedback fr om the int erns and
ther e fore, wil l be of centra l importance to an effective
eva lua tion progr am .
2 . ) Value to the Student- -forc es interns to articulate his
experience, and thereby analyze its educational significance.
3.) Va lue a s a Stimulus to the Agency- - the information and
suggestions provided the agency can serve as a basis for
agency evaluation and improvement.

�ATLt\NTA URBAN CORPS STUDENr RECRUITMENT
'I 1.1 e :, tudent recruitment effort began in earnest at eact1 of the
nine Atlanta campuses this -.,1 eek.
It has been decided to limit
recruitment to these nine campuses this year because of time and
efficiency considerations.
However, the u ,_ ban Corps will accept
applications from any colle~e s tud ent re::,a r,ness of his school.
In
the future active recruitment t·1 ill take pl~ce at many schools in the
Southeast.
1\ pproximate recruitment quotas have been conside:ced fo;: each
campus and in some cases limited fund availability (CWS P) has forced
us to limit recruitment and not 30 all out.
/' t Emory for example,
our Coordinator assu,:es us that ,·}ith an all out campaign he could
recruit 600 students but yet oith only 3 CUSP slots available at
Emor y ~-1e f1ave elec ted to only utili ze limited publicity in an effort
to limit t he numbe r of applications to a mo:ce reasonable level.
Although it o oul<l. be premature to make any predictions at
this time, ear ly reaponse t o t h e U:cban Cr,:,.:ps among the stu:.lents has
been terrific and v1e feel o e u ill have no difficulty in fillinc the
available job slots.

Dear Dan:
I have read with considerable interest the Urban Corps program
activities of summer internships and would be grateful if you would
send me some of the particulars concerning the design of the program.
Since I will be teaching State and Local Government and
Municipal Government (graduate) this summer, perhaps in some way
I might be helpful. to the internship program.
Also I would like to discuss ·with you some time in the next
few weeks personnel procedures and practices in the city of Atlanta.
Bill Jones, Director of Personnel for HEW1 s regional office, made
an interesting evaJ:uation of personnel procedures for Atlanta, and
I believe you will be interested in the findings.
Best regards,

The Atlanta Urban C:Jrps is the best example I've seen for young,
intelligent minds to grapple with the problems of our city. Our
young people and our cities can no longer afford to be strangers.
The leadership 0 £ universities and cities must take advantage of
this vast untapped source of energy and manpower.
Atlanta should be proud of its students and universities. A group
of students proposed this Urban Corps se1·vice-learning concept
to our city and now their universities are helping to sponsor it.
Interns will perform needed services for not only city government
but private agencies as well and during the process they will learn
a great deal about our city and its problems.
I hope the Urban Corps i s only a beginning. We need this focused,
aggressive concern of young people . We need more movement
between the two worlds of academia and city.
You interns have my wholehearted support.
We need your help.
Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor

Fi nanc ial need,
Atlant a resideut
�Due to the la;.·ce num'be:r of financial sponsors of the UPJ3AN CORFS :, a
uniform description of each financial a.1.·rangement is impossible . The main
financial source for intern salaries is CWSP funding . However :, some agencies
and depar tments have made special agreements to p;.·ovide more than the 200/o
matching fund requi:red for matching CWSP. Certain agencies are funding the
full cost of thefr inte:rns and have forwarded this money to the URBAN CORPS
in advance of the work period. Ii. few a gencies have financial sponsors 11
that paJr the full cost of their interilS directly to the URBAN CORPS . VISTA
is presently sponso:ring the full cost of 25 interns for select agencies.
These students ai·e c ounted n.s VISTA 11 /i.ssociatesn as well as interns in the
UPJ3J\l\T CORFS,
/i.11 students not certified by their college for CWSP funding are given
equal consideration for placement under the above non ~,CWSP funded positions .
The URBJ'J\T CORPS also solicits funds from businesses and foundations.
These funds :, unless earmarked for ce:rtain interns or ngencies ,. are used to
place non--CWSP interns in a gencies that cannot financially afford to pay
full cost. These intern slots are chosen on the relevancy of the intern-ship , the need of the a gency and the educational experience the intern
might receive. These solicited funds are also used to fund UP.BAN CORFS staff
intern positions.
The basis financial source of each internship is one of the following :
1.
College Work- Study-BO%,
2.
Agency 100%

s hip . The avo..ilability of such supervision is reviewed a.nd evaluated by the
URBAN CORPS Placement nnd Eva.luation Connnittecs . The level of supervis i on
depends upon t he nature of the o.ssiQ;nment nnd the experience of the int ern.
This is designed to offeT students the opportun t iy for max imum initiat i ve and
c reative flexibi l ity consistent with the cn];>nbil Hies of t he individual and
the requirements of the assic;rnnent.
Especially in t he case of gr oup pTojectn ~ experienced gr aduate students
may supplement the supervisory per sonm~l provided by the agency or department.

Suspension and Discipline
URJ',.BN CORPS inte:;.·11s who fo.il to properly perform their assignment may be
suspended by thei:;.~ immediate superviso:r . Such sus_pension will be immediately
reported to the URBL\N CORPS and thoroughly reviewed. Where such action is

of serious misconduct, dis mi.ssed .frou1 the program. Any disciplinary action
will be irmnedintel~r reported to the student's college financial aid office.
Disciplinary a ct i on may only be taken upon the approva.l of the URBAN CORPS

Evaluation
The evaluation of the performance of URBAN CORPS interns is carried out
at several levels . These include the i mmediate supervi sor :, the coordinator
of the agency or department to whic.h the student is assigr~ed , a f ield evaluation unit and the intern hi1nself.
Both the student and his sup2rvisor OXIJ queried during the course of the
int ernship as to their opinions of the internshi:9 experience and ._performa.nce.
The coordinator of the agency or depa.rtment t o which the student is assigned
is lilcewi se charc;dd with the t ask of i:.mi ntainin[j on going e valuation of the

Final Report
The cul.n i nati on of the internship will be the final report. It i s a
report written f or the intern·' s departncmt or agency ancl prepared uncler
the guidance of t he intern ' s supervisor and URBAN CORPS Field Evaluation
Staff. It is required under the -terns of appointnent by the URBAN CORPS .
The final report is not a din.ry .. it is not an English thene . It is
written for the a.c;ency to provide a docunented re1)ort on the problens ~
s cope , and results of the i nternship m1d the overall acency .
Specific 11 cool -book n direction ca..rmot be f ollowecl on t hese reports ,
but general guidelines are incl udecJ. below to hel p insure sane uniforr:.i. skeleton
f or a.11 reports. Ea.ch intern should discuss his report objectives and probleus
with t he Field Evalun:tion Staf'f cont act early in the internship.
A.
General SugGest i ons f or the Inter~1
The writing of your final r eport wil naturally have t o wait until
the conpletion of the field work (whette applicable ) , but it should be planned
fron tb.l? very beginni113 of your proj ect • The content and structure of a good
report are related directl y t ::; the nature and scope of the study and t o the
the r.1ethods used in gathering, recordinc and interpreting uata. The scope ,
i.e. , geographical area a.nd objectives of the project should be clearly defined.
·-11~
�The methods used i n pUl"suing the _project should be recorded .
Most of your tine will be spent go.therinc; do.to. froo books , o.rticles ;
docur:JBnts, reports . and from mo.ny individuo.ls. You rao.y use one or o.11 of
these o.pproo.ches , but the personal interview will probo.bly constitute o.
chief source of informo.tion. Who.tever the source, it should be relevant to
the objectives of your study o.nd documented _ i . e ., the source or person should
be accurately recorded. Titles of persoas intJ1·viewed a.re important and
shoulcl be noted. A field notebook is essential. Don ' t rely on mei:10ry~ write
it dmm on the S}?Ot. A procedure found helpful by 1:mny investigo.tor s is
transferrin~ the notebook to cards , which nre filed by topic.
You should subnit internittent l?Togress reports to your Field Evaluation contact during your internship. These r eports and careful attention
to notes will greatly sir.1plif'y the coElpilo.tion of the final report. As the
p1·oject progresses, the f ormat and nubstance of the final re_i_)ort should be
considered in your do.ta collection and the forn you use is your i ntermittent
reportn. If you use this app roach; :y·ou ,-, i ll find that the pre_po.:ro.tion of
your fino.l report ho.s been made ouch quicker o.nd ea,sie,.·. Don't allow your
interir.2 reports to becorae nerely statements of activities. These can be in~
eluded; but let the repo1·t reflect yolli· proc:;ress in uud,ersto.ndine:; o.nd interpr eting your project.

Dear Hr. Willia~,
Many thanks for your letter of April 22 and the materials on the
Atlanta Urban Corps.
We should be delighted to participate in the Urban Coprs except that
we have already placed all of the students in this year's intern
prog ram. In all, this amounts to 32 students who will be at work in
local and state governmental agencies throughout the nation this
coming summer. We have great hopes for the success of this program,
and for its expansion nex t summer.
If I may, then, I shall put your materials into the file for next
year's program, and be getting directly in touch with you sometime
early in the fall. In fact, the South is that geographical area
that is most under-repres ente~ in our placements for this coming
summer, and we should therefore b e most a nxious to place an outst anding
student with you next summer.
Again, then, many thanks for thinking of us.
regards, I am,
With best wishes and
Sincerely,
John P. Reardon
