I've been accepted in the Walt Disney World college program for 2004, which is exciting, especially since I think they said they only accept like 2% of the applicants or something along those lines. The process was fun (a tad intense) and I'm excited. I haven't decided what semester I'll be attending yet.

MousePlanet.com's most recent MailBag (from a few days ago) featured a letter I wrote about the Roy/Eisner/Comcast deal. I thought that was pretty cool.
That is so awsome. I plan on applying for the Disney College Program for next year. My family visits every year and I always end up talking to the college kids and thinking "this sounds like the right thing for me." What I really want to do is be a host. I have seen them do this. People pay big bucks for this package that includes free meals and a host to take you through a park and you get to skip lines and go backstage. The package also comes with a free meal. It would be so cool to be a host, but you have to be fluent in more than just English. I better learn something like Japaneese and fast!
I also plan on auditioning for host/park greeter. You don't actually apply for this (you have to choose another job first), and then you audition when you actually get down there. Sounds very cool. I won't be doing any of the tours though, as I'm not fluent enough in anything... I know just enough French and Hebrew to get by as a park greeter, according to the CP rep here.
Best of luck, Aaron! I'm positive the experiences you gain will be amazing! The fact that you were chosen out of so many is a great accomplishment! When do you start?
