Consensus: Work, Work, Work. Then Work some more.

Going into this subject, I was interested in hearing the different viewpoints of students working during the year. I had always heard about kids getting up at six, going to work, going to school then going back to work. How do you keep up the grades? Is this healthy? Will this pay off in the end?

The consensus from everyone was yes, it will.

Although Munch talked about how extremely difficult it was to balance classes, she says that it helped her pay the bills and take the stress off of that. Tackett, on the other hand, has build up her resume on LinkedIn, and thinks her three jobs look awesome on it.

Dan Birkholz shares his working environment with many students in his Co-Op house, and says he wouldn't have it any other way. 

Students don't necessarily enjoy working, but they know the benefits from it. I find it ironic how this generation is named the "entitlement" generation, yet the majority of students I have come in contact with have more responsibilities than their parents when they were younger. It is almost odd if you don't have a job during the school year nowadays, and if the debt increases per student, per year, I could only imagine what the next generation would have to balance.
