UAB’s Information Technology Internship Program has let us know they have 13 positions available for the 2007-2008 academic year. Open to students enrolled at the school, interns in the program work 20 hours per week in a variety of positions throughout the IT organization. Students are paid stipends and receive a tuition scholarship, and their work hours are flexible.

“This is a great way for students to gain work experience in their field of study,” said Jaime Hudson, who coordinates the program for the university’s Office of the Vice President for Information Technology. “Our past interns have told us that they enjoyed learning valuable skills while being challenged by important projects.”

It’s still several months away (and it may just be out of reach for many of us) but the guys from Porsche Sport Driving School are offering a women’s only two-day high performance driving course at Barber Motorsports Park September 18 & 19. Up until now, the Porsche Driving Experience has primarily drawn men to the course, leaving wives and girlfriends to sit on the sidelines watching them have all the fun driving around Barber. Experience ctivities will include classroom instruction as well as on-track sessions and off-road courses.
