Opinions Seeking truth instead of obtaining answersThings change. Over the past four years, I have seen friends come and go, graduate, drop out and get married. I have made friendships and watched them dissolve and fall apart. I have been in and out of love. I have switched majors multiple times. I have watched my faith go from being in crisis to non-existent to flickering once more. Opinions Make summer vacation: live productivelyIf you cannot find a paid job (or even if you can), internships can be an enormously rewarding way to spend your summer. A number of internships in the Seattle area are part time and provide a huge resume boost, whether or not they are directly related to your major. Plus, if you find one in your field of interest, you could end the summer with a newfound knowledge of the industry, along with some helpful connections. |
