Students selected to participate in this internship will meet weekly for one hour at the Holocaust Center to examine and discuss the impact of World War II on those residents living in occupied Asia. The program is led by Columbia University Professor, Dr. Jimin Kim, a scholar specializing in the story of the Korean Comfort Women. Student interns will be trained to use this knowledge to conduct an intensive remote interview of survivors and present his/her story to the intern and other interested members of Queensborough Community College.
