This year, Cabrini will graduate over 350 bright, young minds into the working world. Some of those students, no matter how skilled or creative they are, will not have jobs when they graduate, solely because they did not have an internship while in college.
With graduating seniors finding it hard to land jobs when they enter into the working world, having an internship or co-op before they graduate will put them well ahead of their competitors.
Due to the strength of the Career Services office with Nancy Hutchison and Kristi Beucler, Cabrini students are well known for having the beefiest portfolios and job skills because many take advantage of the internship program Cabrini offers. Job recruiters and interviewers look for that prior experience when they hire people for the job-without that experience, interviewers may overlook you.
October is the month the Career Services and Cooperative education office recommends that students start applying for spring co-ops. Co-ops and internships are an invaluable part of a college student’s search for a job. With job market being the worst in decades for new graduates, it would only be wise for Cabrini students to get on the ball, take the initiative, and apply for a co-op.
Lower blood alcohol level may pose a challenge for those of age
Two pony bottles of beer may not seem like a lot of alcohol, but if you consume them in one hour and then get behind the wheel of a car, you could land in hot water.
Pennsylvania’s legal blood alcohol level is going to be lowered from .10 to .08 this month. Not only will the level be lowered, but also there will be stiffer penalties for offenders based on their blood-alcohol content.
If the bill was not passed, Pennsylvania would have lost close to $12 million in federal highway funding or two percent of its $600 million budget. Many see this as federal coercion, others see it as an incentive for safer highways-you be the judge.
While Loquitur is in favor of this lower blood-alcohol limit, we pose one question-what will happen to those of-age people who will no longer be able to celebrate a good test grade or a business meeting with one drink? Are they going to be scared to have that one drink that would have been OK before or will they tip their glass?
