Google's Summer of Code
,----[ Quote ]
| "Think of it as an externship," said Leslie Hawthorn, open source program
| manager with Google. Basically, students work from home -- instead of in an
| office -- on a three-month open source coding project while paired with a
| mentor from the industry or academia who is well-versed on that particular
| project.

It's That Time Again: KDE and GNOME Invite Students (and Mentors) to GSoC 2009
,----[ Quote ]
| Google's Summer of Code (SoC) Program has united students interested in open
| source with projects and mentors for several years now. The intiative's goal
| is to foster interest in open source software while exposing students
| to "real-world" software development processes. It's easy to see, based on
| how enthusiastically some projects embrace the annual event, that the
| students aren't the only ones who benefit from the program.

Flipping burgers or writing code?
,----[ Quote ]
| For students the world over, summertime marks the end of exams and a few
| months away from the books, tutorials, and professors. Harsh reality though
| soon comes knocking in the shape of economic reality and it also usually
| means, for most, the need to find a summer job.
