Michigan State University (MSU), the Lansing Economic Area Partnership Inc. (LEAP) and area businesses are
getting ready to launch a local job and internship fair, “Earn, Learn
& Intern,” to help link MSU students with area job creators.

"We're pushing local companies to show the students what's available to them," said Paul Jacques, MSU's internship developer.
"A lot of (students) are coming to us saying, 'I've got to go.' We're saying, 'No, you don't. Look at all these businesses.' "

MSU already has worked with several area firms to create internship programs, Jacques said.
