There are a lot of people you can connect with through the CC network, and they tend to have great advice \u2013 most of which is more current than the professors\u2019 here. These people can help you figure out if graduate school is really something you want to pursue and give you tips, help point you in the right direction for what programs to look at, and often can help you get even more contacts. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Congratulations, Caroline!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>If you want to be featured with #hired or #gradschoolbound, you can connect with us on:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Facebook:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ColoradoCollegeCareerCenter\/\">Like our page<\/a>, then post what you\u2019re up to this summer on our wall with #hired or #gradschoolbound.
