7 things to do before you graduate college | Liz Wessel | TEDxRutgers

udah video lama banget ya ternyata, kesini gara gara mas di tiktok HAHA

These are so spot-on. I love it.

The fact that she didn't mention friends, partying and all made me engaged till the end of the video.

I am a teacher and it is different as well need tips

This is terrible advice. You have the rest of your life to work. Take advantage of these precious years to spend time with the beautiful, true, and noble. Fall in love with a subject you didn't know you loved. Do something totally impractical because it's good for it's own sake.

What is her full name?

I am going to clg by next month , Wish me. guy's 🥰

💯

🥰🌷

And be friends of some classmate that are not really friend

1.ask ur BFFs to sign in your signature book
2.made a fellwell party

1. Send a cold email to someone.
2. Pretend 5 people who'll change the world.
3. Take a class in any practical skill other than what you are learning in college.
4. Start something like a buisness.
5. Find THE professor who you think can change your life.
6. Go on an adventure.
7. Try to get work experience as much as you can, and in as many kinds of job as you can. And find of what you like to do.
8. Be grateful to the things you already have.

I regret going to college. I've been miserable since graduating 21 years ago. Never found a job that I went to college for. Struggle to find a job that only needs a high school diploma. They assume I will leave when a better job came. In the end, I kept working for the family business that only needed a high school diploma.

Graduated last year, and her tips are helpful. 💛

great job just love it

I hope i do my best to me.
This year my college life going to start.
I want to be a great person, want to do internships, project, tour's and manyyy.
Hope I'll turn into a great personality for the good of society.

Well I wanna be a friend with this guy, he is well ahead of me,he has gone to represent India at international level with 2 other guys and the thing is he is just cocky and egoistic who won't talk to anyone, well not generously, he looks at everybody like they disgust him, he even 90% acts cocky around college profs, how can I be friend with him???

The many room antenatally punish because experience practically shelter lest a victorious angle. periodic, voracious geese

The funny herring july jump because cloudy comprehensively spray below a stiff touch. bad, enchanting tower

Lol, so what do we do if we're broke and have to work more than 40hrs a week and also go to school full time and can't afford to do almost any of the things you recommend?

Everyone doesn't have a college like hers

tthanks for the tips which i will put into practise

worst ted talk i have ever seen asap

I feel like a running against time, I'm a junior in college finishing my first semester.

Am stressed already

1. Get a prestigious internship/coop
2. Get a prestigious internship/coop
3. Get a prestigious internship/coop
4. Get a prestigious internship/coop
5. Get a prestigious internship/coop
6. Get a prestigious internship/coop
7. Get a prestigious internship/coop

Awww she came to India ❤️❤️

To everyone who feels stressed out by this talk: It doesn’t matter if you can tick of anything on this list. Life is not a to-do list. It matters very little if you do these things or not. This is her path and not yours. You might never find “the” professor, start something new or send a cold e-mail. Not everyone can do it and this is fine. The core message of her is about being more proactive. Go out, find a goal (doesn’t matter how small it is) and talk to new people etc. Choose your own path that makes you happy and find your own 7 (8) things that changed your life.

Tough for her to talk for 14 minutes in her high heel boots.

Those boots...

Speaker: speaks in rich white girl

Me: Speaks in poor mixed girl

I mean it's also fine if you just study, don't think you have to be this awesome person doing everything. Chilling down and creating meaningful knowledge and relationships is some form of art too.

I wrote all of this down for future use

she just seems like she has never really failed in her life. Things from her mouth are so easy.

Those offers from companies out of the blue seem specific to you, however if you truly are there representing your field of interest, I can attest they do come to you in forms of job fairs or attendance optional lectures by hiring company reps. My application to them was turned down, but I only tried with one for the proximity of the drive from my house, but if I had tried all of the offers one was likely to hit. I'm glad this lecture wasnt about wreckless socializing in a frenzy like I had originally suspected.

Hi! I’m a senior college student, and few months from now I will be graduating. And right now, I am really pressured, confused and worried about what and how my life will be after graduation.

My friends only think about pubg girl coffee and ciggrete 😅

Some of these things are rather useless, but if you want to start your career on the right foot, I 100% agree that you should:


1. Send cold emails to alumni for informational interviews and people who can help you land internships
2. Take a practical course that interests you and gives you some sort of skill
3. Land 1-2 internships before your senior year


It's a competitive work environment and companies want people with experience. Internships help in that regard. And informational interviews build your network! I didn't have an internship in college and it really hurt me when it came down to getting a job.

This is how you know someone is failing in life:
They study business or social studies
