Giant Killer Robots!
I got an internship at Giant Killer Robots! I am very excited. I should start sometime this week. The people there are very nice. The facility has worked on movies such as The Matrix, Blade Trinity, What Dreams May Come, Fantastic 4, just to name a few. In other news I am signed up for a Mel Scripting class this summer which I am also very exctited about. It has already been announced that Python will be included within the release of Maya 8 and probably replace Mel all together, regardless, I am still going to take Mel. A scripting language of any syntax will be good for me to take. Last but not least the Spring Show was great. I got 2 additional awards of excellence which was a real honor. If you are in the bay area any time soon be sure to swing by the Acadmey building on 180 New Montgomery and check out the 3rd floor exhibit (thats where the 3d artwork from the show is held). Its completely open to the public.

hey Landis, i hope yu don't mind me replying :)
the mel, python and C++ classes are taught at AAU by Adrian Herbez.
i dunno if there's been an official announcement yet on Maya/Python integration but i came across this which might be of some interest to you - http://www.aqsis.org/xoops/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=1203
