Brown's placement was, when I was there, sad. They promised leads and jobs and I got 1 lead and not called again for 6 months... until they brought out an associate's version of my education and wanted me to spend another $10,000. I said no, documented the follow-up calls and have gotten them to cease with the threat of a lawsuit. But that's neither here nor there. And that was in the last decade, yes. b) is the way to go, IMHO. -- Ryan On Mar 18, 2010, at 12:58 AM, Tony Yarusso wrote: > On Tue, Mar 16, 2010 at 8:37 PM, r j <ronsmailbox5 at gmail.com> wrote: >> I am in network development at brown college and I am wondering >> where to >> intern at. >> I would like to work in a Linux friendly environment. >> My internship would start in about a years time. >> Does anyone have any recommendations ? > > a) If your college has a placement office, ask them if they can > help you. > b) Word of mouth is huge in IT right now - keep asking places like > here and see if you run into someone who needs you. > c) Keep an eye out in non-traditional places.
