Hi
I am a graduate student who has found that internships
(I have had two) can lead to permanent positions (I
have had two offers).  So, if you are in a position to
accept an internship at the Getty, I would advise you
to take it.  Not only would it be a great line on your
resume, but the opportunity to make contacts and a
possible permanent position...I would not be able to
pass it up.
