I am also a senior (but at three rivers high school)  And i am starting a
work-study program at Armstrong International this monday for about three weeks.
This is mostly for networking.  But anything they ask me to do computer related
will be much enjoyed by me!  All i really expect to do is learn more about
networking and anything else that i can soak up in the time i am there!
