Am I correct that the existing VRT/RT programs are:

Hunter
Western Michigan
Salas
Louisiana Tech
UMass -Boston
University of Northern Illinois

I think they are all seeking qualified applicants and now is a great time to
get started applying for the Fall semester.  We need good people! Consider
applying.....stipends and scholarships are available from most of them.

I am not a spoofer. I am simply one of very few VRT programs left- seeking
