What a crazy week. Jackie and I found an apartment. I hardballed the broker into a one month fee after he insisted that he has never gone below 12%/yr. I interviewed a gay excommunicated mormon, and he rocked. I biked to work after band practice at 11pm, stayed until 1am, and then came back in the morning by 7:30am. Let's just say it's been rough, and there's more of this hectic lifestyle to come.

I'll be in Maine this weekend, which will be fun. Ok, I'm going to pass out now.

Cheers.

Hoy vs. Hello Nurse - let the feud begin

Once upon a time, Hello Nurse was friends with Hoy. Somewhere between then and now things got ugly. Now Hello Nurse is out for revenge.... and there isn't a thing that the police, Greg Hoy's mother, or the fact that our bass player is a pirate can do about it!

Hoy vs. Hello Nurse



Aren't we some thugs!! (Thanks to Joe for the crafty photoshop magic)

In other news, please see the previous post for an explanation as to why this blog has been static lately. To describe the situation in a plain metaphor, someone on another team spilled some milk. This milk went everywhere. My team had to get out the public relations mops and soak up all the milk. The floor is still sticky, but finally not so sticky that I can't leave the office. Ugh.

Teach For America press release

RECORD NUMBER OF APPLICANTS ANSWER
TEACH FOR AMERICA’S CALL TO CIVIC LEADERSHIP

In Growing Economy, 17,000 Apply to Teach in Urban and Rural Public Schools

NEW YORK, MARCH 1, 2005 - Teach For America, the national corps of outstanding recent college graduates of all academic majors who commit two years to teach in urban and rural public schools, announced today it received a record 17,000 applications for its 2005 teaching corps. At a time when jobless claims are the lowest in over four years, this represents a 29 percent increase from 2004 in the number of total applicants.

Applications grew even more significantly – by 39 percent – among current college seniors. Twelve percent of the senior classes of Yale and Spelman College applied to Teach For America, as did 11 percent of the graduating classes at Dartmouth and University of Massachusetts at Amherst, and 8 percent at Princeton and Harvard.

From this large pool of high quality applicants, Teach For America anticipates approximately 2,000 new corps members will be placed as teachers in low-income communities across the country in the fall.

“The application numbers we’re seeing reflect college students’ belief that educational disparities must be our generation’s civil rights issue. College students are saying, `I want to do something about this for kids growing up today. I want to be a part of the network of civic leaders who are working together throughout their lives to address this issue in a fundamental way,’” said Elissa Clapp, Teach For America’s vice president of recruitment and selection. “We are looking for accomplished individuals who possess the qualities necessary to not only have an impact on students during their two-year teaching commitment, but to effect long-term educational and social reform in careers across all sectors, including education, law, public policy, healthcare and business.

Teach For America is highly selective, with approximately 16 percent of total applicants gaining admission in 2004. Ninety-three percent of those accepted held leadership positions on their campuses or in their communities. On average, they earned GPAs of 3.5.

“Given the enormity of the problems we’re addressing, we at Teach For America feel a moral imperative to grow,” said Clapp. “We have invested a great deal in growing our recruitment infrastructure and are recruiting college seniors as aggressively as any corporation in America. We think that, in and of itself, is pretty revolutionary.”

Teach For America actively recruits on more than 500 college campuses, where it seeks applicants from all academic majors, career interests, and backgrounds who demonstrate a record of outstanding achievement in past endeavors, persistence in the face of challenges, and a strong sense of personal responsibility for outcomes.


About Teach For America


Teach For America is the national corps of outstanding college graduates of all academic majors who commit two years to teach in low-income urban and rural communities and become life-long advocates to expand opportunity for children. Corps members go above and beyond traditional expectations to impact the lives of children growing up in low-income communities. Beyond their two years, corps members take their insight and added commitment to assume leadership roles from inside education and from every other sector and to work toward the fundamental changes necessary to provide more equal opportunities for all children in our nation.

Since Teach For America placed its first 500 corps members in classrooms in 1990, more than 12,000 outstanding college graduates have joined its movement to eliminate educational inequity. As of 2005, corps members teach in 22 locations in underserved communities across the country. For more information on Teach For America, please visit: www.teachforamerica.org.
