As you head into to finals and then off for winter break we wanted to offer you some tips on networking and internships by your fellow peer Brittany Waser ’12. Through my internship search and summer job search I have found that one of the most valuable tips I have received is the importance of networking. Students dread networking and keeping in contact with employers ( I know I did!), especially when the end goal of a job seems far off. Often intimidating and easily ignored, networking can be the key to unlocking a seemingly unattainable summer position. This is […]

Remember that scene in The Social Network when the Winklevi are rowing at Henley? And they hear that someone at Oxford has Facebook? And they get really mad because Facebook has caught on so much it jumped continents? Right. So what’s my point? Well Dee-Lite sang it best when they came at you from the “global village…in the age of communication,”‘ but my point is a little less lyrical. What is my point you ask? Yes, I’m getting to that.
