As summer approaches, internship season is about to kick off. Internships are a great way to gain experience, form valuable relationships and earn some extra cash. While internships are great, searching for internships can be stressful and competitive. Here are some websites that make the internship search easier:

1. Indeed

Indeed is probably my favorite job search website. This site allows you to type in exactly what you are looking for and which city you want to work in. With Indeed you can be as specific as Social Media Intern or stay broad with a search for a Business Intern. Indeed also keeps your searches on record and updates you when a new posting matching your criteria is posted. Indeed also sends emails with new postings matching your search criteria.

2. LinkedIn

LinkedIn is a great resource for internship hunting. Companies often post their internship openings on LinkedIn, and students can search for openings based on city and keywords. LinkedIn also allows students to view the profiles of people who work for the company they are applying for. LinkedIn allows students to save jobs they are interested in, and often applicants can quickly apply straight from their LinkedIn profile.

3. Internships.com

Internships.com allows students to create a profile and a living resume. Students can search for internships based on field of work and city. Students can bookmark internships and keep track of submitted applications. Internships.com also sends emails when new jobs are posted.

4. Looksharp

With Looksharp, students can create an in-depth profile broadcasting their experience and academic accomplishments. Looksharp allows applicants to search for jobs and internships. The internship postings show whether the internship is paid, when the desired start date is and more.

5. Your school's career website

Most colleges have a career website where companies will post job openings. This is a great resource because the companies posting on the website most likely want to hire students from your school. Set up a profile and frequently check your school's career website for summer internships.

6. Barefoot Student

Barefoot Student is a job board that attracts some really amazing internships. Students can make a free account and browse internships based on industry and city. Not only does Barefoot Student post internship opportunities, but it also broadcasts jobs for recent grads.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
