Finally, Some Props for College Students

Wednesday January 7, 2009

One of the things that bugs me most about press coverage of college students and their lives is that the coverage tends to be so negative; it's rare to see a great story on college students that highlights all of the amazing things they do all day, every day.

On December 24, The New York Times ran a great article highlighting some amazing projects that are being led by college students. It focuses on the entrepreneurial spirit that seems to ignite in many college students, and the great things that come as a result of that fire-in-the-belly. It's worth a read if you need some motivation -- and worth sending to parents or other people who tend to have consistently negative views of college students and their productivity!
