Greetings,
I came across an interesting article that highlighted an auction on Albert Einstein's "Theory on Happiness".  If you'd like to read more on Einstein's idea as well as the amount of money it fetched at auction, check out this New York Times article:

What it Takes to Land a Decent Job Fresh Out of School

Are you curious what it takes to land a good job after graduating from college?  It turns out that it isn't rocket science (unless that's your major!).  According to this recent Wall Street Journal article, researchers found that there were two crucial elements:
1.  Getting good grades.
2.  Landing some internships while you're in school.

Fortunately, SUNY Old Westbury Library can help.  Whether it's using Reference USA to look-up companies for internship opportunities or finding a quiet place to study in our recently renovated study rooms, the library's got your back.  Until next time, catch me in the library.
