TO GO WITH FEATURE STORY ATTACK INTERN, 2001-10-01 (photo)

Despite the recent attacks on Washington and New York, most international interns have decided to remain in the states. Monica Zilouf, a 23-year-old intern at the British-based broadcast company ITN in Washington, shown in this undated file photo outside a dorm on Capitol Hill, in Washington, arrived recently from London but already has helped the network produce segments from Washington and the site of the World Trade Center. "I considered should I go home or should I stay, but I've decided that it's the best time to be here," Zilouf said. "The reality of the way things are now, a terrorist can hit London."
