WEll, it sounds like you've got the means to keep going- the summer part timey thing to mesh into the schedule- and obviously you're trying by putting all those apps out there. How many connections do you have? Is your approach in need of some *cough* social engineering? Politics are stupid, but getting to know the person you'll be hiring can make in impact, as can knowing people who can refer you to jobs that haven't been, shall we say... predecided? This happens, you know, so while I'm sorry you have to go through it again and rejection sucks, perhaps there's something besides 'flashy-thing' them to change the outcome.
