Hello Intellistudents! Have you ever gotten stuck with a paper assignment that just isn’t working? I sure as hell have been there – especially when coming up with awesome blog topics for Intelly – but the excitement of being a social science major means the papers keep a-comin’. So over the years, I’ve perfected a few techniques – and by virtue of being awesome, you get the benefit of my years of trial-and-error without the, well, trial and error.

So let’s sexify some term p ... read more!

Intellistudent of the Week

Sara Bailey

Intellistudent of the Week, 2-23-2009

Scholarship of the Day
intelliStudent features a new college scholarship every day, so and check back here daily. Even on weekends. And today's scholarship is:

  All Ink Scholarship
Yeah -- we've never heard of them either. They make printer ink. Submit and "essay" (don't freak out -- it's only 50 to 200 words. This paragraph is more than 50 words) on what you hope to achieve in your personal and professional life after you complete college. Please don't be a moron -- make sure you submit one that is printed instead of handwritten. Catch our drift? It's a printer ink company!!! Sheesh...


  Getting A Job
The Power of Networking
Pull up a chair, ne'er-do-wells -- we're about to tell you the MOST IMPORTANT thing that you can do to prepare for your future in the real world. This is it -- #1 on the whole damn list. You ready? It's called "networking." Yep -- sounds simple, doesn't it? That's because it is, unless you are a meekling. You're gonna have to stick your hand out, spew out your name and get to know people if you really, really want to make some waves in the real world. Join groups, go to conventions, trade business cards, chat up transients and gypsies -- whatever you have to do to network, DO IT! At first it will seem pointless (and horrible for most of you), but down the road you'll see what we're talking about. It means everything.
  Social Life
Are You At Risk For Diabetes?
We poke a lot of fun at diet, health, fatness, etc. Why? Because we're funny, that's why. But we know, just like you know, that in the end it's a serious deal. I was indestructible when I was your age too -- but your age is the age that you MUST start taking care of yourself -- while it's still easy to do (just trust me on this one). Not only for your image, but to avoid developing diseases like hypertension and diabetes. Check out this read to see if you need to reign yourself in before the onset of diabetes.

The Anti-Diet That Works
Okay, Plumpers. We've tried giving you normal dieting tips, and they've obviously gone ignored. Don't feel too bad -- we ignored our own advice too. Now it's time to get serious with this weight loss stuff -- by tricking you. Try this "anti-diet" if you're having trouble taking off the pounds. It's called "Intuitive Eating" and it sounds crazy -- crazy like a fox. Basically, you completely change the way you think about food. By doing so, you change your lifestyle and lose weight. Although we know you're virtually invincible at your age, you'll thank us in 15 years.
