			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>What you do in your classes can help you create and establish your personal brand.</strong> Remember, your brand is your value- what you can do uniquely well to help others address issues or solve problems that matter to them.

<strong>Here are some things that you can do while you are still in school that will help your brand:</strong>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>What you do in your classes can help you create and establish your personal brand.</strong> Remember, your brand is your value- what you can do uniquely well to help others address issues or solve problems that matter to them.

<strong>Here are some things that you can do while you are still in school that will help your brand:</strong>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>What you do in your classes can help you create and establish your personal brand.</strong> Remember, your brand is your value- what you can do uniquely well to help others address issues or solve problems that matter to them.

<strong>Here are some things that you can do while you are still in school that will help your brand:</strong>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8293740">Bret L. Simmons: Building Your Brand In Class</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.
<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, About an hour ago, my friend asked me, via telephone, what was on my agenda for the rest of the day.</p>
<p>"Not much," I said, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>. The air was off in the office, <b>Levaquin 500 mg sinus infection</b>, so I decided that working at Starbucks would be more fun than marinating in my own sweat. Quick aside--when you're overheated, coffee isn't the best beverage choice. Anyway, <b>levaquin 500 mg dosage</b>, the air was off--I told her--so I planned on doing some client work for <a class="zem_slink" title="Gunner Technology" rel="blog" href="http://www.gunnertech.com">Gunner Technology</a> from Starbucks and wrapping up a few items for <a class="zem_slink" title="ESPN" rel="homepage" href="http://espn.go.com/tvlistings/networks/espnnow.html">ESPN</a> before going to relax in my gym's hot tub.  <b>Levaquin 50 mg</b>, Also--probably not the best idea when you can't sweat anymore.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6407" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="In the random class, you may find the sure path to your passion--and success!" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/napoleons-underwear-212x300.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As I was telling her this, I realized I hadn't written my post for the week, <b>levaquin 250</b>, so I asked her what she wished she would have known when she was making her way through school. Now, she's a really smart cookie, and I'm glad she is because I was plum out of ideas, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg lawsuit</b>, She tells me she wished she would have known that it was OK to take classes that didn't directly contribute to her degree or to her minimum credits required to graduate.</p>
<p>(This of course, is fiction, <b>buy levaquin 500 mg</b>. I did hours of research throughout the week to deliver you the best topic the Internet has to offer on career advice. Don't tell <em>her </em>that, <b>Levaquin 250 mg</b>, though.)</p>
<p>I'm intentionally burying the lead (as those crazy journalists say) to make a point. Going on tangents is good once and a while, and you can learn a lot from them. I wish I would have followed this advice going through college.</p>
<p>I started as a business major at the <a class="zem_slink" title="University of Florida" rel="homepage" href="http://www.ufl.edu">University of Florida</a>, <b>levaquin 500 mg iv</b>, switched to journalism after two semesters and graduated less than a year and a half later. I took exactly what I needed and nothing more.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Two years, I had my bachelor's degree.  <b>Levetiracetam 1000 mg</b>, Boom. I was ready for the real world. But, as I'm now in the workplace, <b>azithromycin 500 mg chlamydia</b>, I realize that so few people work in a field that they got their undergraduate degree for.  <b>Levaquin 750 mg dosage</b>, I cut my teeth as a web developer. I took one C++ class in college and dropped it. My point is, who knows where you are going to be 10 years after graduation? If you're a math major and want to know what color underwear Napoleon wore, <b>levaquin 1000 mg</b>, take a French history class. If you're a liberal arts major and you want to know why the golden ratio is so naturally appealing, <b>What is levaquin 500 mg prescribed for</b>, take a design class about fractals.<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6408" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Apparently, this is the Golden Ratio, but feel free to take the class to discover why" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/golden_ratio01-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="192" /></a><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you graduate four months later, <b>levaquin 250mg</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>Does that mean you may uncover a hidden passion, <b>buy levaquin generic</b>. Maybe.</strong></p><br />
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><strong>But isn't that second 'maybe' a little bit more important than the next?</strong></p><br />
Like I said, <b>Levaquin 500 mg cost</b>, I was a journalism major, hell bent on making it to ESPN as talent (reporter, analyst, <b>cost of levaquin 500 mg</b>, talk show host, <b>Levaquin 750 mg price</b>, etc), but because I ended up taking a class on Digital Media, taught by an excellent professor, <b>levaquin 750 mg uses</b>, I discovered what I really wanted to do and made my way to ESPN as a web developer and later, <b>Levaquin tablets 750 mg</b>, manager.</p>
<p>Better yet, ESPN afforded me the opportunity to get my MBA where I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship even though I started my MBA with the goal of climbing the corporate latter.</p>
<p>In business, you hear the word 'pivot' all the time. Your business or company has to be nimble enough to pivot and change its business model and operating procedures.  <b>Buy levaquin generic</b>, Well, as a student, pivot if you find something you're passionate or more passionate about. And be nimble and open enough to allow it to happen.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Many students aspire to help others, commit to a cause, or give back to society, but they know little about how to approach those goals in a career.<em> What careers are available. How do you find a good fit.  <b>Order biaxin</b>, How do you land a great job in public service?</em></p>
<p>In June 2010, Heather Krasna, Director of Career Services at the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, <b>biaxin for strep</b>, released her first book <strong>“</strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Jobs That Matter: Find a Stable, <b>Biaxin for ear infection</b>, Fulfilling Career  in Public Service</strong></span><strong>.” </strong> Krasna says this is the first book of its kind that covers both the nonprofit and government sectors. She offers tips on landing great jobs that help people, protect the environment, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, improve international relations, <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, ensure security, and more.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5618" title="The Author" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/heathers_professional_picture.jpg" alt="" width="80" height="100" /></p>
<p>I had an opportunity to chat with Krasna about her new book, <b>biaxin xl 500</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><span style="color: #008000;">Can you tell me a little bit about your background, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
</span></span></h3><br />
I have been doing higher education career services for almost 12 years.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, I wanted to share my experience with a wider network and have been hoping to write a book for a long time. Eventually, I secured my book contract through a contact on LinkedIn, <b>biaxin xl 500mg</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">How do you define a public service job?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
There are a lot of ways to define it, <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, but it is basically any career that helps make a difference or makes society a better place.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I define it mostly as government and non-profit agencies in my book, but it can be for-profit corporations, too.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Can you walk me through how the book is laid out and how the reader is supposed to interact with it?</span></strong></span></h3><br />
The chapters are in the order of the steps you would probably take if you were job searching. The first chapters are a lot of career assessment exercises, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>. .  <b>Prescription for ear infection</b>, . looking at yourself, finding what you’re interested in, your values and what you’re good at, <b>biaxin for strep</b>. The next few chapters reveal what types of jobs are available. You are looking at the world, <b>biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, finding the jobs and learning where can you get more information.  <b>Biaxin xl 500mg clarithromycin</b>, I highlight various people who work in these jobs and profile a typical day. The final three chapters are about how to go get the job.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, I discuss resumes, cover letters, interviewing, networking and more. I also give specific tips for government jobs because the process is quite different from others, <b>buy biaxin online</b>. It really walks through the whole process.  <b>Medication for ear infection</b>, <h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">What should students do while in high school and college to prepare for a career in public service?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5617" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="Make a Difference" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/serve-300x280.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="204" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
Get involved and volunteer as much as you can, especially in leadership roles at a local non-profit or government agency. A lot of them will have internship programs, <b>biaxin for ear infection</b>. If they don’t have any set up, they will often arrange one at your request, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.</p>
<p>Start to get involved with professional associations.  <b>Biaxin for sale</b>, Also, know what kinds of technical skills are expected and take classes that help meet those requirements.</p>
<p>One other little tip is that in government and non-profit jobs, <b>biaxin for strep throat</b>, some of the workforce is aging.  <b>Prescriptions for bladder infections</b>, My advice is to be sensitive to generational differences.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people consider a career in public service?</span></strong></span></h3> <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Public service jobs are for people who are passionate about or have a particular interest in an issue or cause. That is the number one reason to pursue a career. Second, <b>biaxin xl 500 mg</b>, these are some of the most secure jobs in this economy. Third, they often have a fast promotion track. As I said, much of the workforce is aging so look for promotion opportunities. Lastly, many nonprofits have a more relaxed culture than you may get in some corporations, which can be a great fit for recent grads, <b>biaxin for strep</b>.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;"><strong><span style="color: #008000;">Why should people read your book?<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-5619" title="The Book: Jobs That Matter" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jobsthatmatter1.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a><br />
</span></strong></span></h3><br />
This is the first book that talks about and complies resources for all types of public service jobs. It’s the biggest overview. Many books are just government or just non-profit. I think it will open people’s eyes to a lot of careers they may not have been aware of and also give people the skills they need to feel confident approaching a public service career.  <b>Biaxin for strep</b>, Reading this book will hopefully give people a leg up.<br />
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Pick up a copy</span></h3><br />
The book is thorough, easy-to-use and gives a wide overview of all types of public service opportunities. Any student considering a career in public service should pick up a copy.</p>
<p>The book is available at all major bookstores and on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Jobs-That-Matter-Fulfilling-Service/dp/1593577877">Amazon.com</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In my last article, “<a href="http://studentbranding.com/building-your-brand-in-class/">Building Your Brand in Class</a>,” I suggested that one of the ways you can build your brand in class is to earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor.  I have written letters of recommendation for some of my students that made them look very impressive. When I do that, I am attaching my brand to their brand, so I only do it for people that have earned it by impressing me.  When someone impresses me, it means they have succeeded at communicating their value to me in a way that I can clearly communicate it to others.

<strong>If you want to impress someone, you have to first get their attention.</strong> Show up for all your classes, on time, and sit somewhere near the front of the class where your instructor has an opportunity to get to know your face and your name. Make eye contact with your instructor, smile, and nod your head from time to time as he or she is speaking. Simply acknowledging his or her presence with warm and reassuring facial gestures and body language will immediately differentiate you from the disengaged crowd.

<a href="http://vimeo.com/8406796">Personal Branding: How and Why to Impress Your Instructors</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2457580">Bret Simmons</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.

<strong>Take the time during the first week of class to think about how the class is going to enhance your value and personal brand</strong>.  Then, visit your instructor during posted office hours within the first two weeks of class to introduce yourself. Describe to your professor how you think the class is going to enhance your value and ask if he or she has any advice on how to get the most out of the class.

If your performance in the class meets your expectations, thank your instructor for his/her advice on how to do well. If your performance does not meet your expectations, ask for help and guidance on what you can do to improve.  <strong>ALWAYS assume full responsibility for your performance and never make excuses or appear angry or disinterested. </strong>Some of the most impressive students I have ever had were not those with the most talent, but those that did their best despite their circumstances and always assumed full responsibility for their behavior and performance.

<strong>Here is the key to impressing people: discover what they care about, and then make an effort to <em>show</em> that you understand and care enough about them to respect that as well.</strong> For example, I care about personal responsibility more than talent, so when students exhibit high degrees of personal responsibility, I am very impressed.

We simply don’t trust people we think don’t care about us.  In the few short months you spend with your instructor, you want to make sure that he or she remembers you as someone who is worthy of that trust. For that to happen, you have to make a personal connection with your instructors and sincerely care about them and the things that matter to them. <strong> If you can learn to do that in all your relationships, you will master an important leadership skill that will serve you well as your life and career progress.</strong>

When your instructors write you letters of recommendation for you, make sure they can testify about your character and potential by describing specific things they know and admire about you.  <strong>You have to do more than just make good grades in your classes if you want to maximize the power of your personal brand.</strong>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>There are hundreds of things students can do to “turn over a new leaf” for the  approaching </strong><strong>semester.</strong> In college, I went through my laundry list at the start of almost every new semester: “Go to every class, join student organizations, volunteer, maintain a strict study schedule, etc….”. Did I ever do EVERYTHING? No. But I learned some very important tips along the way.

<strong>A new semester is a great excuse to jump-start your student motivation. </strong>Today, I am going to talk about one of the most valuable things college students can invest time in: <strong>getting to know your professors—and getting them to remember you.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">The First Day of Class</span></h3>
<a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2472" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb19" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb19-300x230.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="207" /></a>On the first day of class, introduce yourself to your professors.

Don’t just “Hi my name is Susie” and then stand there awkwardly grinning, or just walk away. Be prepared to tell them why you took their course (“it was required” is not an acceptable response), and what you are excited to learn about. <strong>Leave them with something memorable about you.</strong>

If they seem really busy or swamped with students before and after the first lecture, be sure to stop by during their first office hours or shoot them an email.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Second and Third Days of Class</span></h3>
Show up. Take notes. Ask questions during lecture. Say thank you.

During the first few days, you are still feeling out the class and the professors are still getting acquainted with all of their new students as well. A simple, “Thanks for the great lecture” will do. Yes, persistence is great, but professors are busy people. By simply doing the four things above for the first few days, you are developing a great baseline for future contact.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Follow Through</span></h3>
After creating an initial impression with your professor, follow through to help foster the relationship. Many professors have hundreds— even thousands— of students. So, it’s up to you to make sure you stand out in their minds.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here are some tips for developing great relationships with your professors:</span>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2473" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb20" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb20-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="230" /></a>The best way to get to know your professors is by attending office hours.</strong> All my professors continually encouraged us to visit their office hours, yet the majority of students never took them up on this offer. You can ask questions pertaining to lecture topics, an upcoming exam, a course project, industry news or anything else relevant to lecture or coursework.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Go to every class. </strong>Seriously, do it. Your life will be so much easier when you don’t have to photocopy 150 pages of your friend’s notes two days before the exams because you just couldn’t get out of bed for your 9:30 a.m. lecture.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong> If you do miss class, don’t ask your professors “Did I miss something important?” </strong>Of COURSE you did. Professors believe everything they fill class time with is important. Simply ask how you can catch up on what you missed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t give your professor a lame or false excuse </strong>if you miss class or turn in an assignment late. If you were hung over, golfing or having a BBQ with your roommates, don't lie and come up with a bad excuse–your professors have heard it all. Just apologize, and try not to be late again.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t complain about the workload. </strong>Instead, ask your professors for advice. Tell them you are having trouble with this reading or that assignment, and ask for their opinion on how to best manage your time or approach the work. They will see you as a responsible, serious student who has taken the initiative to seek help. This will further your relationship with them.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Don’t be on your phone during class. </strong>It's rude.<strong><strong> </strong></strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong><a href="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2474" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb21" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/sb21-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="216" /></a>Ask questions during the lecture.</strong> Most students do not participate in the lecture. You will stand out to professors if you show that you are engaged and ask questions.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>If you are searching for an internship or job, let your professors know.</strong> Most would be thrilled to help their students find a job, or at the very least, offer advice.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask for career or industry advice.</strong> If your professor has spent time working in an industry of interest, ask them about it. Professors may love their teaching role, but most of them likely have great tales from their experiences outside of teaching.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Ask how you can do well in the class. </strong>Professors want their students to succeed.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Get to know them outside of class.</strong> If you are really interested, see if your professors are doing any outside research or projects that you could become involved in.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
	<li><strong>Maintain contact after the semester</strong>. If you have developed a relationship throughout the semester, maintain contact. Send an email or letter with career/life updates once in a while.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
	<li> <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Learn</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Learning should transform you and help you to become a different and better person, more valuable and more able to help others with things that matter to them.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Complete the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Earn as good a grade as possible, but get the class under your belt and continue to make progress toward completing your degree.  Your degree is an important part of your brand because it helps certify the claims you make about your value.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Meet people and network</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> One of the most valuable things about a college education is the opportunities you have to meet talented and successful people in your classes. These people will go on to have great jobs at successful companies or start their own businesses, and they might be able to help you someday find a good job or start a business of your own – in turn, you might be able to help them as well.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Earn the respect and recommendation of your instructor</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> Letters of recommendation are often essential in order to get a good job or move on to higher levels of education.  When someone recommends you, they are attaching their brand to your brand, and they will only do that for people that they know will enhance- not tarnish- their reputation.  In my next blog post, I’ll give you some tips on how to earn the recommendation of your instructor.</li>
	<li><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Help other people in the class</span></strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">:</span> If there are people in your classes that are self-responsible yet still struggling to make friends or having a hard time with the coursework, take the initiative to reach out and offer a helping hand. Caring about and helping other people is one of the best things you can do for yourself.  It is a critical leadership skill- one that for many of us takes time to develop. So, practice this principle while you are still in school.</li>
</ul>
Of these five things that I have suggested, which one should be your top priority? <strong> Pay attention to your priorities, because your priorities drive your behavior and your behavior- more than anything else- establishes your brand.</strong>

I think your top priority should be to learn, so that you can become a different and better person than you are today.  If you focus on learning how to learn, you will develop a skill that will keep you at the top of your game for the rest of your career and your life.  <strong>The things you are learning today have a short shelf-life, so you need to foster the ability to continually improve and even re-invent your value over time.</strong>

<strong>Don’t get caught up just chasing a grade.</strong> I have students every semester that get so focused on the grade they want to earn that believe it or not, they forget to learn and improve along the way.  Don’t make that mistake.

Focus intently on becoming a better you and everything else will fall into place.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Do you have a subject at school that you're terrified of?</strong> I do. Math. The word alone makes me cringe. During my last year in college, after struggling in math classes since elementary school, I finally learned how to succeed.<strong> I asked for help. </strong>

Determined to make the best of my senior year of college, with one math class left to take in order to graduate, I decided to change my opinion about math. After class was over the first day, I walked up to my professor and said: "Hi, I'm Jamie. Math terrifies me and I struggle with it. I'm going to need your help this year. I have a positive attitude and I'm willing to learn. What do I need to do to so I may do well in your class?"

<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1679" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb903" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb903-250x300.jpg" alt="sb903" width="158" height="190" />The professor looked at me, smiled, and said, "I think you'll be just fine. Come to class and I'll do everything I can to help you if you're not catching on." She did, too. <strong>That class taught me an important lesson: asking for help is OK.</strong>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few things I learned about professors in college</span></h3>
<ul>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>Most teachers aren't tough just to be tough. </strong>They are tough because they are passionate about the subject they teach, and they want you to really understand the material. They leave it up to you to decide if you will go the extra mile in their class and really excel.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They appreciate students who ask for help.</strong> When you ask your teachers for help, it shows you care. And to be honest, you should. It's your education and you will only get out of it what you put into it.</span></span></li>
	<li><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>They understand how busy you are.</strong> In college, I was member of the OSU Spirit Squad, PRSSA and a variety of other clubs and activities. When the stress got to me, I talked to my professors to find solutions. They usually don't mind letting you take your tests a few days early if you know you will have a busy week when it is scheduled. They would rather you do well.
</span></span></li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">A few professors to follow</span><span style="color: #008000"> on Twitter</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If there was one thing that stood out about OSU it was this: The professors are just as passionate about their students as they are their subjects. Most professors want you to do well- they want to see their students succeed. They also recognize that students' success is a reflection of their ability to teach.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb162" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/sb162.jpg" alt="sb162" width="193" height="193" />Here are three professors from the School of Journalism and Broadcasting at OSU:</span>
</span>
<ul>
	<li><a title="@billhandy" href="http://twitter.com/billhandy" target="_blank">@billhandy</a>- Professor Handy gives students the opportunity to gain real world experience in his classes. He also continues to offer his professional support to students once they have graduated. A smart guy, social media wiz and all-around great professor.</li>
	<li><a title="@ginajnoble" href="http://twitter.com/ginajnoble" target="_blank">@ginajnoble</a>- Professor Noble wants her students to go far. She makes it clear that she will do anything she can to help her students while they are in school and after they graduate. After her capstone class, I was ready to enter the field of public relations.</li>
	<li><a title="@bobbikay" href="http://twitter.com/bobbikay">@bobbikay</a>- Professor Lewis allows students the opportunity to work together as a class to come up with solutions for case studies and beyond. I only had one class with her, but I learned a ton. If you come prepared to her class, the amount of information you can absorb is limitless.</li>
</ul>
Who are your favorite professors?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Be a sponge. Read outside of class. Class reading is important, but it is not the only thing you should read. Read books, blogs, newspapers and magazine articles. Be current. Know what is going on in the world.
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Read the Classics</span></h3>
<strong><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1018" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb2" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb22-300x214.jpg" alt="sb2" width="210" height="150" />Know the classics. This is important for internships, classes and job interviews. </strong>People will talk about classic books, so it's important to know not only what they are talking about, but how to relate and respond to their comments. Some of my personal favorites are: <em>Huckleberry Finn, Pride and Prejudice, To Kill a Mockingbird, </em>and<em> The Great Gatsby. </em>
<h3><span style="color: #008000;">Know Your Industry</span></h3>
<strong>If you are interested in a specific industry, make sure you are familiar with related books, newspapers and trade magazines.</strong> I work in the advertising industry, so it's important that I read some of the industry-related classics like <em>Hey Whipple, Squeeze This</em> and <em>Juicing the Orange</em>. Professors and supervisors talk about these books, so reading them myself allows me to have an opinion in conversations where they come up. 

In the advertising industry, most people read <em>The Wall Street Journal</em>. They focus on the Marketplace section and within that section, the Media and Marketing sub-section. This sub-section has the latest news about advertising campaigns and all sorts of information about trends in marketing and advertising. <strong>Figure out what books and newspapers people commonly read in your industry- and then start to read them, too. </strong>If you are in finance, for instance, read you should probably be reading <em>The Financial Times.</em>

It is also crucial to read trade magazines specific to your industry. In the advertising world, everyone reads <em>AdAge</em>. <em>AdAge</em> posts their content online for free so it is easy to read and stay relevant. <strong>It is so crucial to know what is going on in your specific industry, and almost all industries have trade magazines, so read them. </strong>You don't want to show up for interviews not knowing the company just lost a  million on an account.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Digital is the Future</span></h3>
Stay on top of it. Everyone is trying to figure out the digital world and how to make money from it. As Gen Yers, we have an advantage. We are naturally more skilled with computers/ internet technology. Know the place you are interviewing or working's digital strategy. This isn't just relevant for marketing people. For people interests in Human Resources you should know that many companies now use Twitter to post jobs and look for new hires, check out @NBCUniCareers as an example.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Be Current</span></h3>
<strong>It is not just crucial to know what is going on in your industry. You must know what is going on in the world.</strong> Know about climate change and the green movement. You must know about corruption cases in the finance industry, industry pay cuts and increased government regulation. If you do not know what is going on across industries you run the risk of looking obtuse asking for a pay raise when we are in an economic downturn.

Current news is great for small talk- it adds to your own personal education and leaves a good impression with others. 

So read up!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<strong>Studying abroad while in college can be an amazing experience. </strong>I spent six months in <a title="Lonely Planet: Santiago, Chile" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago" target="_blank">Santiago, Chile</a> in college and it was one of the best things I did during my four years.

<strong>Studying abroad is such a life-changing experience that is often difficult to put into words. </strong>Employers, however, are looking for you to articulate exactly what you gained or learned from being overseas. When some employers see study abroad experience on a resume their mind automatically assumes study abroad = a four-month pub crawl in Europe. Here's how to avoid that misconception:
<h3><span style="color: #008000"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-896" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb270" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb270-300x224.jpg" alt="sb270" width="240" height="179" />Make it a significant experience</span></h3>
While a week-long trip to a foreign country over spring break or seeing the sites with your (American) best friend is probably really fun, the best abroad experiences for professional and personal growth are those that are of at least a few months in length and/or include significant learning experiences. A two-week trip to all the tourist sites in a particular country is a much different experience than a two-week study trip to the same location to take classes, meet with local professionals or students and immerse yourself in local traditions and culture.
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Take some responsibility for your experience
</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">When I arrived in Santiago at 1 a.m., I did not have a place to stay or a contact to call.  I made my way to a semi-shady hostel and from there, spent weeks finding a family that would take me in for the semester and learning how to navigate the city and the culture. It was scary being in a foreign country where my closest friends were people I had met a few weeks prior in the hostel dining room.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">My program provided very few social activities and opportunities to integrate with the local community. <strong>It was up to me to find ways to connect with new people and find a sense of belonging. </strong></span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">The independence required for my study abroad program built my self-confidence.<strong> When I returned from being abroad, I felt I could conquer anything. That confidence will show when you interact with employers. </strong>Continue taking chances when you are back on campus to maintain that I-can-do-anything attitude.
</span></span>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Select a study abroad program that will challenge you</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">As I enrolled in classes at a Chilean university, I quickly found my proficiency in Spanish was sub-par, to say the least. My first weeks (ok, months) were spent completely bewildered as I tried to speak with native Chileans. (Good thing for me they were extremely understanding, patient and helpful). </span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">Fumbling through basic conversations with my host family, classmates, professors, taxi drivers, and pretty much everyone I interacted with was often embarassing and frustrating. <strong>But th</strong><strong>e benefit was that I became better at problem-solving, </strong><a title="Asking for Help" href="http://studentbranding.com/the-art-of-asking-for-help/" target="_blank"><strong>asking for help</strong></a><strong>, taking risks, understanding other cultures and being persistent. </strong>These are great skills to discuss with a potential employer.
</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">If you can, choose a study abroad country that differs from the U.S. in culture as much as possible. Consider some programs in less-popular study abroad locales. <strong>You will stand out more during the interview process because an employer probably hasn't already heard tons about your study abroad destination from other students.</strong></span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">Everyone has different levels of comfort with going abroad. And, everyone's study abroad experience will differ. Spend some time figuring out where your comfort level is and make sure you stretch it as much as possible when choosing a program, both in location selection and level of independence required.</span></span><span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">
</span></span>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Continue networking and career exploration while abroad</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black;" title="sb271" src="http://studentbranding.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sb271-300x130.jpg" alt="sb271" width="300" height="130" />Just because you are in another country doesn't mean your networking and exploration efforts should go on hiatus. </strong>Once you get settled in a bit, consider volunteering (working with kids is great if you're trying to learn a new language!), initiating an informal job shadow, conducting <a title="Informational interviewing post" href="http://studentbranding.com/the-most-underutilized-networking-tool-and-how-to-use-it-effectively/" target="_blank">informational interviews</a> and, depending on work authorization and visa issues, looking into internship opportunities. You'll gain the same benefits you would have if you did these things in the U.S., but with an added global twist. This is definitely a selling point, as many companies are increasingly looking for <a title="Meaning of Global Competence" href="http://globalhighered.wordpress.com/2009/06/18/deliberating-about-the-meaning-of-global-competence/" target="_blank">global and cross-cultural competence</a>.</span></span>
<h3><span style="color: #008000">Make your study abroad experiences work for you in an interview</span></h3>
<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>If you are seeking out networking and career exploration opportunities while abroad and choose a study abroad destination that challenges you, you will have </strong><a title="Behavioral based interviewing" href="http://studentbranding.com/can-you-tell-a-good-story/" target="_blank"><strong>meaningful stories to share</strong></a><strong> when speaking with employers.</strong> Before an interview, think about specific situations in which you used or demonstrated the skills they are seeking for the position(s) you are applying to. Remember that it can be a story borrowed from your personal life, not necessarily a classroom or workplace scenario.</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000">Imagine an employer asks about a time you used problem-solving skills. If you embarked on a week-long backpacking trip through Patagonia with little wilderness experience and found yourself in a dangerous predicament where only your problem-solving, teamwork and optimism got you through, you have a compelling story to share that will vividly illustrate for the employer how you have used those skills in the past. It also shows you did something other than frequent the local bar scene.
</span></span>

<span style="color: #008000"><span style="color: #000000"><strong>When talking about your study abroad experience, always focus on specific interactions, moments, people and events instead of talking generically about how valuable the overall experience was. </strong>While abroad, be sure to have fun, but also build in meaningful experiences that you can share with potential  employers- if you can effectively convey the personal, academic and professional lessons you learned while abroad, highlighting the study abroad experience will make you a memorable job candidate. 
</span></span>
