u>mun2 Opens Doors of Entertainment Industry to

Hispanic College Students

mun2, the new cable alternative for young U.S. Latinos, today announced the nationwide launch of the first internship program in the entertainment industry that is specifically aimed at young Latino college students. This summer, u>mun2 will provide them with an opportunity to receive practical training in marketing, public relations and production in Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Houston, San Antonio and El Paso, initially. Each semester will initiate a new internship cycle, and over time, the program will be rolled out in other cities as well.

"mun2 is very committed to making u>mun2 a success, not only because it allows Latino students to fulfill a college requirement, but also because it opens the door to the entertainment industry. It is critical that we develop a base of young U.S. Latinos who are interested in careers in television," said Yolanda Foster, Vice President of Programming with mun2 television.

These initiatives take on an even greater significance in a country such as the United States where, according to Hispanic Scholarship Fund figures, only 11% of Hispanics have a college degree compared with the national average of 28%, and where only 573,000 Hispanics out of a total of 35 million have advanced higher education.

Students accepted into the u>mun2 program will carry out a demanding work schedule during the academic semester for which they will receive college credit. Divided into various teams, they will devote between 15 and 25 hours weekly to their professional training, learning to promote a cable television network in their respective markets while interacting with students in other markets.

To assess the development of students participating in the program, a u>mun2 advisory board has been created, made up of leading communications professionals, including Nelly Galan, President of California-based Galan Entertainment, and a widely experienced producer; William Adams, M.A., Associate Professor of Public Relations, Florida International University; Gonzalo R. Soruco, Associate Professor of Advertising and Public Relations, University of Miami; Terry Hernandez Rosales, Director of the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, an organization that has secured over 45 thousand scholarships for Hispanics in its 27 years' history; Beatriz de la Torre, Marketing Manager at MiGente.com, the fastest-growing English-speaking Latin community on the Internet, as well as representatives of Telemundo and mun2 television. In addition, u>mun2 enjoys the support of strategic partnerships with Hispanic Scholarship Fund and migente.com.

Students interested in applying to u>mun2 should call 954/430-7873 or send their resume to [e-mail].
