As part of Trevor's graduate school requirements, he has to join one of the department's research labs. His thesis will be related to the research this lab is involved in. Trevor has been searching around and talking to different professors in charge of these labs trying to figure out which one would be best for him.
Well, a few days ago he talked to the Internet Security Research Lab professor and he extended Trevor an offer to work as a research assistant in the lab. On top of a salary, they will pay his tuition (possibly even this current one). This is great for him because he will have a lot more time in his week due to working on campus and getting paid to work on his thesis. This way, he won't be working a job on top of his schooling and research he will have to do anyway. So he put in his two-weeks notice at Qualtrics (his current employer) and will begin research on January 28. I feel a little sorry for Qualtrics losing such a good programmer, but this will be better for Trevor and me (because I'll get to see him more :) ).

Way to go, Trevor!! It doesn't matter who employs you, as they will be the winner with you as an employee. You will be an asset wherever you go.
That is so awesome!! Someone is definitely watching over you! Will he be able to go back in the fall when you return to Provo? Congratulations!!!
Congratulations!
Trevor is planning on returning to work for this lab when we return in the fall. He will probably continue to work for them until he is done with school, except for summer internships.
