With news coming out every day about how hard it is to get a job these days (especially if you're a new graduate), the National Association of Colleges and Employers just came out with some helpful information. While their "Top Jobs for the Class of 2009" report won't be fully released until July, you can check out some highlights for engineering, science, computer science, healthcare, business, and liberal arts majors. And, if you're really interested in more details from their report, check their site in July or check with your campus Career Center when you return to campus in the fall.

Starting college in the fall? Entering your senior year? Somewhere in between? Make sure you're signed up for the weekly (and free!) College Life email newsletter.

Each week, I send out information that can range from what to pack for college to how to prepare for the job market after graduation to new regulations about student loans. It's a great way to stay informed about things you'll want (and need) to know as a college student -- but without having to take the time to go out and find everything on your own. With so much else to worry about during your time in school, why not make things a little easier for yourself?

National Public Radio is accepting applications for fall 2009 interns -- but only until July 15. You can intern with them at their offices in Washington, D.C. or Culver City, CA. More information can be found on their site, including more details about their internship programs and how to apply.

If you're not going to school in either of those areas or you're interested in interning in a different field, make sure to check out Penny Loretto's Internships Site. It's crazy full of really helpful, informative, up-to-date information on everything you could ever think of about internships. And with the economy the way it is, getting some experience under your belt just might make the difference between landing that fabulous job (or graduate school acceptance letter) after graduation -- or not!

Not sure how to celebrate the Fourth of July now that you're no longer on campus? Or, if you are on campus, not sure what you can do to celebrate?

Taking a road trip in college is a classic experience. Your trip can be one day or three (or longer, if you don't have to be back for work or class) and organized around any activity or theme you wish. Check out 5 college road trip ideas if you're still struggling with what to do ... or just hop in the car and see where you end up!
