  • I heard back from Argonne.  The bad news is that the deadline
    for applying for their summer program was Feb 1, but the good
    news is that the deadline is apparently fairly soft.  So you should
    still be able to apply and receive some (if not "full") consideration
    To apply, go to

    Let me know if I can help in any way.

Location of my work: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=3400+N.+Charles+Street&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=43.848534,79.277344&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=16&ll=39.32731,-76.61479&spn=0.010507,0.019355&om=1

Hey,

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I wanted to wait until plans were a bit more solid.

So me and a friend have put in an application for this 2BR apartment near campus. I will be moving into it May 29th, but my friend wont be able to move until September, so a room will be availaible for the summer. I have living room furniture, so it will be partially furnished, but youll have to get a bed. The rent is $787, so ~$400 per person plus utils. The apartment is on the west side of campus, about a ten minute walk from where our offices are, and a block from a main street akin to Magazine St in NOLA. The address is 3502 Beech Ave, Baltimore, Maryland 2121.

Lemme know if it sounds appealing. I know you wanted something furnished, and a move-in date that was a bit earlier.

Umar,

Hi Rob,

Here are the websites besides craigslist where I look for housing and as far as I've seen, there seems to be quite a lot summer sublet.

Let me know if you need more information about safety issue of the location.

Wishes, Xiao

Hi Rob,

You can definitely find something within walking distance and I would recommend this. The neighborhood around homewood is reasonably safe and you can walk easily to work or you can take one of the JHU shuttles that bring you home within a 1 mile radius. I think Hamden and Roland Park are fine, Charles village seems to be ok for the first few blocks next to the Campus. If you bring your bicycle you can even live farther away as well. I cannot recommend public transport. We took the bus every now and then and it was never a pleasant experience. If you don't mind to share the bus with drug addicts or sitting next to people that evidently peed into their pants having not a single tooth left in their mouth, then taking the bus is an option as well.

If you need a car only every now and then I'm sure that somebody can borrow you a car. I have a car now and we don't need it every day. Brock found a car sharing service that seems to work fine. Keep in mind that you have to move your car around frequently if you decide to bring it or you have to pay for a parking lot.

Anyways, I'd stick as close as possible to the campus, but listen what the natives tell you, maybe I'm just paranoid.

looking forward to see you here at Hopkins - Gernot

I think the Austrians are paranoid about Baltimore, but they never lived in New Orleans. So, maybe take the dire warnings with a grain of salt.

--Brock
