WVIZ/PBS and 90.3 WCPN ideastream created The William E. MacDonald III National City Internship Program as the result of a generous contribution by National City Bank to honor William MacDonald who served as ideastream’s first Chairman of the Board of Trustees. This internship was instituted to enhance opportunities for Northeast Ohio college students who want to develop their professional skills with the hope that they will pursue a career in the region. This special internship program includes compensation and will provide students with hands-on experience in a variety of public television and radio careers while earning college credit.
