Virtual Tours and YouTube College Information

Want to "visit colleges" without leaving home? Try virtual tours. YouTube has college informational videos created by communications majors enrolled at the various colleges. They are informative and fun to watch.
You get to learn about the college and "meet" some of the students.

Villanova has created a weekly video following two students.
Check out the information below:
"Our latest addition to myNOVA is a weekly video, “This Week at VU”. You can follow Kat, a senior communication major from Southern California, and Chris, a sophomore political science major from Pennsylvania, as they give you the inside scoop on what it’s like to be a Villanovan.
To view this video and find additional information about Villanova, please visit http://mynova.villanova.edu/pacwa/site/portalHomef.html and use the following invitation code to set up your account: f3a4-39c3-5c5a
And please don’t forget to return every Friday for another video chapter in the lives of Kat and Chris!"

The Innovation Secrets of Steve Jobs: Insanely Different Principles for Breakthrough Success

Thorn in My Pocket: Temple Grandin's Mother Tells the Family Story

The ability to grow and create a life rich in experience and satisfaction is inside and needs to be brought out into the light of day. While the books featured above seem to be unrelated they are not. They both speak to the  value of having experiences, learning about yourself and doing the hard work necessary to find out who you are and what you want to do. I have found both of these books to be a tribute to the ability to think differently, to be able to find new and creative ways to see the world and solve its problems. Live, experience, learn and grow.
If you want solid proof of the benefit of doing different things in different environments read the book below.
Your brain will thank you.
