An in-house SO job is a lot better than contract, plus you'd have a better chance of moving up to a PO's position.

I noticed that the posting for the Medford campus on the Tufts website says,

Hours per Week: 16
Weeks per Year: 32

Anyone have any idea what schedule they work? I'm assuming that if they only work 32 weeks a year it must be a Sept-May job.
