Co-op type jobs?

[Mike Newman]

Hi everyone,

Sorry that this is very off-topic, but I'm looking to help some
friends who are in co-op with me at college. Unfortunately the
IT-related placement offerings in my college have been severely
lacking, and most have been offered to several colleges and
universities simultaneously. I was lucky to get a job at A Big Car
Company (they were very impressed with my knowledge of GNU/Linux), but
most organizations would rather take a B- university student over an A
college student. They also lack the connections to tap into the hidden
job market.
What I'm looking for are leads to jobs/volunteer positions that
involve IT in some way. They know how to use (but not administrate)
GNU/Linux. They know how to hand-code HTML and CSS, and how to use
Dreamweaver and (ugh) Frontpage. Of course they are well-versed in
Microsoft Office. They know their way around SQL in Oracle and have
some experience with Microsoft Access as well. They also know
C/C++/C#.
Maybe you know a church that's looking to have a website built. As I
said, volunteer positions are just as eagerly sought. Maybe it's a
company that needs someone in shipping 9/10ths of the time but would
also like someone who can fix desktops when it's needed. We're running
out of time, and my friends would appreciate anything.

Many thanks,
Michael Newman
