I got the word today that UNCW will not be hiring any interns this summer due to the economy.

Summer registration was last week, and I didn't register because I knew I'd be tied up. I reallocated the tuition funds to another project to boot.

And just to add insult to injury, I had planned for using the internship money to fund the fall semester.

Fuck.

If it helps, I know of a workshop or three which would pay a stipend and tuition over the summer.  The good news?  - they're in Kansas.  The bad? - they're in Kansas.

Our district has axed summer school.  (Your second grader needs extra help in reading?  Too bad.)  A nearby district's last day of school is this Friday - three weeks early because they're out of money.  Two other nearby districts are RIFing.  In another district, the science teacher told me this weekend that the superintendent quit rather than RIF anyone else.

This was such a great opportunity for you, Lou, and I'm sorry it's fallen victim to this great mess we call the economy.  Hang in there!   :(
