Vassar to Google!

My good friend Eric Estes '11, Design & Production Editor of The Miscellany News, just got a hugely exciting summer job offer from Google. Right after Commencement, he'll fly to their corporate headquarters (the famous "Googleplex") in Mountain View, California. He'll be working as a Web designer for their research and development team. As a Computer Science major at Vassar and avid computing geek, he should be perfect for the job. Everyone is very jealous of Eric though, not just because of the amazing job and salary, but because of the benefits. Google offers its employees free breakfast, lunch and dinner, free laundry, and free foosball, air hockey, and video games. Plus, employees are usually given 20% of their time "free" to work on independent development projects that interest them.

Good luck, Eric!
