  • Fight off homesickness. Get Involved.

    OK. This could be you, freshman year. Or maybe it’s still you. You never go out, go home nearly every weekend and begin studying for finals at the beginning of the semester. If you, or someone you know, is falling into this trap, don’t let your college years tick by with little to no experiences outside your dorm room’s four walls. The “Daily Collegian Online” recommends you get involved. I know, it can sound overwhelming at first but you might be surprised when you get involved. Many colleges have clubs and intramural activities involving pretty much everything from, as the “Collegian” points out, the Bodypainters Guild to the Bigfoot Society to fan clubs. So, what are you waiting for? Get involved and do it now. You’ll meet lots of new friends and learn more about yourself outside of the classroom. And, really, isn’t that what college is truly all about?

  • Need tech help? Try “crowdsourcing”

    It’s a much nicer way to say “outsourcing,” but anyway you slice it “crowdsourcing” may be putting some college tech experts out of a job – or at least reduced hours. But what it could mean for others is that their tech questions are answered much faster – by someone who has been there. At Indiana University, tech support used to work 24-7 and got paid up to $11.41 per phone call, according to a story in “The Chronicle of Higher Education.” As you can imagine, that adds up fast as the tech help desk handles more than 150,000 calls a year! The college has recently instituted a new Web site where students and professors can post their IT questions and share solutions. The idea? Not only to save money, but to provide fast info for people looking for answers to their tech issues, including corrupted files, problems checking e-mails, etc., fast.
