进入大学这个小社会是不是有点迷失呢? 除了注册课程,认真上课外,大一新生还可以做些什么让大学生活有意义的同时也不那么无聊呢. 看看如下这些建议吧～
1. 学会一门有用的真技能, 如office软件PPT， Excel等.
Even if you're dead-set on being the next great novelist, there's always a chance you'll change your mind sometime in the next four years (depending on whom you ask, anywhere from 50% to 70% of students change majors during college).
In that case, it's good to have a few hard skills you can count on to get your foot in the door at a variety of jobs.
Learning a language is always useful, and you'd be surprised how many doors you'll open by having a strong knowledge of Microsoft Excel.
Take it from someone who spent most of his freshman year playing Super Smash Brothers and embarrassing himself at parties: it's a lot easier to learn these skills in the structured environment of a college course than it is to push yourself to study after a full day of work.
2. 记住要跟教授保持好关系. 积极去office Hour问问题，搞好关系善于以后找教授要推荐信.
One commonly listed regret among college graduates, especially those who went to schools with large class sizes, is that they did not develop personal relationships with their professors.
If for no other reason than because you'll one day be asking them for recommendations, make time to visit your professors during office hours. This can be intimidating at first, but offering guidance to young people is why many of them chose to go into academia in the first place.
In addition to providing you with their wisdom and expertise, professors who are established in their fields can help connect you with internships and valuable research opportunities.
3. 别老宅在家里，积极参加校园活动. 对认识人，锻炼能力，增添简历都有帮助.
It's a common piece of advice, but it's a good one. There are hundreds of different clubs and student groups you can join, and chances are you'll find at least a few that pique your interest.
If you want to be a reporter, join your student newspaper. If you want to be a politician, get involved with student government.
Even if you don't know what you want to do when you graduate, it's a good idea to dive into something you care about because the leadership experience you get working in a student organization can help you stand out to employers.
And the sooner you join one of these groups, the faster you can start climbing the ladder.
The author as a wayward college freshman.
4. 尽量给人留下好印象，多交朋友, 为Network打下基础.
Whether its your parents' friends at dinner when you're home for the holidays, or the woman who sits next to you in your psychology recitation, everyone you meet is someone who can help you with your career later on.
While you will almost invariably say things to people you'll later regret — nobody gets through college without changing a little bit — you can put your best foot forward by dressing appropriately, maintaining confident body language, and being a good listener. Don't forget to smile!
5. 暑假的时候找点事做，而不是傻傻的宅在家里.
It doesn't have to be an internship (although, it's recommended you get one of those early, too). Whether it's traveling somewhere you've never been before or making money working at a local restaurant, it's important to make the most of your summers off.
No matter what you choose to do, make sure you start planning early. You'd hate to miss the deadline for your dream internship or come home to find all the good summer jobs have already been taken.
6. 经常去学校的“ careers center”走动走动，请那边的老师帮着改简历.
By the time senior year rolls around, the career center will be flooded with anxious students desperate to land a post-grad gig.
One way to make sure you have the attention of your school's career counselors is to begin developing a relationship with them from the time you get on campus.
Career counselors can help you prepare the perfect resume, point you in the direction of great internships, and connect you with successful alumni. Even if you have no idea what you want to do after college, the careers center can be of use by offering personality tests that can give you a sense of which jobs you might be good at.
7. 最后一点，放开心玩儿吧!
No one wants to hire someone who's miserable all the time.
