It seems that Microsoft has taken notice of the game development students here at Champlain and are very interested in hiring students or recent graduates for Game Programming, among other fields, for Summer 2012. Internships will be paid great money with possible housing and transportation. But anyone interested in a position has to act fast, Microsoft's hiring for Summer 2012 ends in November so get your resumes primped and contact Mark Zammuto posthaste!
