In the midst of writing essays, running to and from classes, studying for tests and finding time for a power-nap, students might not think about finding time for networking. Networking is the building of informal relationships with people who could help create career or business opportunities.

Individuality is key when wanting to stand out in the workforce. Prospective employers often look for qualities in resumes that show how applicants are different from the rest. Employers may often get resumes that look the same, read the same and are difficult to pick from.

Money makes the world go around … well, at least it does for some students anticipating graduation.

For many students who have spent years on the Hill, they chose their major because it deals with something they love.

For others, it’s because it pays more.

A morning for some college students is hitting the snooze button, sleeping for about 15 minutes and then remembering they have to go to class. When they finally slink out of bed, their next mission is attire. Some students opt for sweatpants, school colors or Greek letters, while others choose blazers, blouses and suits.

Facebook – it’s a tool and toy many college students have come to live by. The social networking Web site www.facebook.com allows students to find long-lost friends among its 39 million users, share photos of what they did over the weekend and tell anyone what movie they are a fan of at any given moment.
