City of Logansport Student Internship Reimbursement Program

City of Logansport Officials and Cass Logansport Economic Development Organization (CLEDO) believe
that students who work under an internship arrangement will enhance their education, their
professional expe- rience, and their interest in local industries. Therefore, reimbursements are
offered to promote internships for undergraduate students majoring in academic disciplines
applicable to the local industries within Logansport (i.e., construction management, mechanical
engineering, manufacturing, health care, etc.).

Reimbursement Description: The Logansport City Council has appropriated $25,000 from unrestricted
County Economic Development Income Tax (CEDIT) funds to local corporations and industries that hire
sum- mer interns or work through an affiliated cooperative program to hire college students
throughout the year, to be appropriated at the sum up to $2,500 per summer intern and $500 per
semester for cooperative students (spring and fall semesters)
