This is the job I had here as a sophomore, and IMO this is the best student job available on campus for Linux-admin type people (i.e., you). I have learned many wise things about unix and I attribute most of it to having taken this job, and the people I met working there.

PS you will have root on professors computers; although if that is a big appeal for you, maybe, ethically speaking, this isn't the job for you :-) ---------------------------- The Department of Computer Science is now looking for first or second year UMCP undergraduates, for the position of the position of Student Systems Staff.
