Real-World IT

On Wednesday I will be attend a IT career fair in downtown Omaha. My good friend just graduated with his BS in Computer Engineering and I just transferred into an MIS program. If everything goes well, perhaps we can get him a better paying job than the grocery store. Come October, I will also be attending a developers conference for programmers and such. I'm excited to see some of the stuff there such as the Silverlight session and some of the database sessions. I'm trying to gain as much experience outside of the classroom as I can, and the events I think will better my overall chances of landing something good in the near future.
