ITHACA, NY (05/10/2011)(readMedia)-- Kathleen McCaffrey of Fair Lawn, New Jersey, has been named one of only five 2011 Robert L. Bartley Fellows at the Wall Street Journal. The fellowships are named in honor of the late editor of the Journal, Bob Bartley, for young men and women whose views are broadly consistent with Bartley's beliefs in economic and political liberty and who aspire to careers in journalism. McCaffrey will work this summer as a paid intern in London for The Wall Street Journal Europe on the opinion page.
McCaffrey is a rising senior at Cornell University with a major in philosophy and history. She is a staff writer and campus editor of The Cornell Review and is the editor and founder of www.ThePoliticizer.com, an online magazine of opinion articles from students across the country. Last summer she interned at America's Future Foundation through the Koch Summer Fellow program.
