Maybe some of the UC RE magnates or neighbors know of suitable applicants.
Orleans Builders in March filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, and
now has a pending agreement of sale for its assets. I have no idea how the
transactions may impact the future of the technical institute program. But,
the program is accepting applications for the June session.
What happened to those Obama Bucks and promises of plethoretic green jobs?
