Contrary to popular belief there are internships still out there. In the past two years I have interned at Compaq, Verizon, and Intel. In addition, I have been offered internships at GE and Raytheon. Now, the key is, is to be willing to travel, most of the companies I listed were glad to help setting up housing and/or help paying for it. So, don't give up, you just have to look harder. It also helps to be able to do an intership for more than just the summer. At Intel it is much easier to get an internship if you are available for 6 - 7 months.
I would have to agree. As a current student (day time, I am just a youngin) I have taken night and evening classes, and definatly the students in the day class are more concerned with the grade then what they learned. I have noticed this not to usually be true with the night students. However, many of the kids are concerned with grades because that can determine what scholarships you are eligible for and if you can go to grad school or not. So, you can't entirely blame them.
So, according to this lady's argument any athlete should be eligible to for disabled status if they develop tendonitis. Thats just nuts. Yes, it sucks that she *can't* type anymore, but that is a basic function for her job and if she can't do it she has no right to expect to keep her job.
