Carleton alum Brandon Tearse '04 tells us: "Two years ago I was hired as an intern for a growing information security company in Minneapolis called NetSPI. After receiving training and getting some experience doing internet penetration tests, pseudo-phishing schemes, and other similar security activities I was hired as a security consultant. At that time our organization needed a new intern to replace me. I convinced NetSPI to return to Carleton to recruit a second intern. As a result we hired Anna Grasso (graduated in '05) as our new intern. Now she's been hired as a security consultant and we're heading back to Carleton once again to find interested people. If you are interested in learning about what it is that an information security consultant does and what NetSPI can offer you, feel free to drop by our presentation in Leighton 305 at 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 12. If you can't make that, you can investigate our company online at www.netspi.com."

CS major Leah Steinberg writes: "The idea of a CS t-shirt has been bouncing around for awhile. There's a proposed design at http://people.carleton.edu/~chasmand/front.jpg and http://people.carleton.edu/~chasmand/back.jpg. (You can guess how they line up with the orientation of the shirt.) Email color suggestions to Leah (steinbel@carleton.edu). So far we've got purple with orange text, or grey with navy or green text, so let us know what you think."
