First of all, congratulations to Zach on going to Singapore an joining our LC blog!

Today I went in to the @US national office for personal meetings with roommates Jen and Jill, and in my meeting with Jen we started discussing Salaam. She said that there are about 11 or 12 subsidized traineeships built into the grant this year, so if we can find a company that is willing to take a trainee, we would be able to have Salaam trainees in Ithaca this summer and possibly in the fall. This is so awesome and as much as I love the city, I can't wait to get back to Ithaca to sell these traineeships.

It would make me soooo happy if our first trainees were Salaam trainees and I know we would provide a great experience for anyone wanting to experience America and a more realistic view of the country than a big city would be able to offer.

Get ready guys, LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!!
