I'm thinking about it, but I know they'll try to corrupt my moral views and make me think that Microsoft is a great place to work. But it's like resume +++++++.
Got this in my inbox from some account at RIT that always mails out this kind of junk.

Explore Microsoft
Have you ever thought about pursuing a technical career in computer science or engineering? Here’s your chance to experience the exciting field of software development as a freshman or sophomore, become a Microsoft Explorer.
Explore Microsoft is a 8-week summer program specifically designed for college underclassmen (freshman and sophomores) and will offer the opportunity to experience working at Microsoft. This program is designed to expose students to the field of software development and encourage students to pursue degrees in computer science, computer engineering or related technical disciplines through 8 weeks of hands-on training & group project experience.
Candidate Qualifications:
Candidates must be a freshman or sophomore enrolled in a bachelor’s degree program with a demonstrated interest in majoring in computer science, computer engineering, software engineering or related technical major. Students must have completed an Introduction to Computer Science course (or equivalent class) as well as one semester of calculus (or equivalent) by the start of the program. Candidates must also be available for the entire 8 week program, from June 14 through August 5, 2005. Finalists will be selected on the basis of eligibility, quality of application and demonstrated interest in the software industry. Finalists will be interviewed and offers will be extended based on this interview as well as the candidate’s application.
We want to encourage students from groups currently underrepresented in the field of computer science- women, underrepresented minorities (African American, American Indian, Hispanic) and individuals with disabilities- to pursue computer science or engineering degrees. All candidates who meet the criteria for eligibility are encouraged to apply.
