Congratulations, Graduates.
Congratulations Class of 2016!Graduation is a celebration that
marks the culmination of years of hard work and determination. It’s a pivotal moment in a student’s life when he or she will be facing the next great adventure, whether that involves additional schooling or venturing into the workforce.
While graduation is a joyous occasion, it is important that both graduates and their guests adhere to the established etiquette that gov-erns graduation ceremonies. Gradu-ation may require that graduates and their immediate families deal with certain challenging issues, such as who to invite when faced with lim-ited seating, and unexpected emo-tions that may arise when grads don their caps and gowns.
-tesy. Many schools limit the number of seats each student can reserve for guests. This can make it tricky when there are a number of people who are worthy of an invite. Explain to friends and family who you cannot invite that you would love to have them there but are restricted by ticket allotments. Try to have both sides of the family represented. Usu-ally an invite to the after-party will thwart any hard feelings.
are alike. Schools adhere to different policies and procedures regarding graduation. Keep in mind that grad-uation ceremonies may run several hours, especially for large graduat-ing classes. If the ceremony figures to run long, leave young children at home. In addition, be courteous to older guests who might not be able to sit or stand for too long.
schools provide students with invita-tions, but graduates and their fami-lies can choose to buy their own. Paper invitations are more personal than digital alternatives. Paper invi-tations also give the impression that the ceremony will be formal.
Anyone who receives an invitation is obligated to give the graduate a gift. Give grads their gifts in person, even if you cannot attend the cere-mony. If you live far away and won’t be in attendance, arrange for the gift to arrive as close to the ceremony date as possible.
all-inclusive. Graduation ceremo-nies are often followed by parties. If possible, try to coordinate with other friends who are graduating so that parties are not on the same day or at
least not at the same time. This way everyone who would like to attend can do so. If friends do attend, The Emily Post Institute suggests that graduates explain to their friends that family will be at the party and that polite behavior is expected.
Adhering to established etiquette and displaying common sense at graduation ceremonies and parties can make for a more enjoyable day.

As the cost of college tuition continues to rise and the job market grows increasingly competitive, college students are giving greater consideration to their prospects of being hired before choosing a major.
A 2015 study commissioned by the National Association of Colleges and Employers asked 201 employers, including companies like Aetna, Macy’s and Procter & Gamble, which degrees are most in demand, even distinguishing between the most in demand bachelor’s, master’s and doctorates.
The most in demand bach-elor’s are accounting, computer science, finance, business administration/management, and mechanical engineering.
The most in demand master’s are computer science, electri-cal engineering, mechanical engineering, information sci-ences and systems, and business administration.

College students have a few different living options at their disposal. Many opt for dormitory living.
Thousands of post-secondary
students pack up their belongings and move away from home in the pursuit of an education, and par-ents want to do what they can to ensure their college-aged kids are
safe. -
resents the first time they will live anywhere other than the homes they grew up in. Dorm life can be an exciting adventure, but it can also be one that may open new col-lege students up to inherently risky situations.
While students should look forward to fun and excitement at school, it’s also important for them to be prepared for what lies ahead at college and in dorm life — and to take the proper safety precau-tions.

Always keep the dorm room door locked, and make sure your room-

When preparing to move into a dorm, leave heirlooms or expen-sive jewelry at home. Once you move in, store your more valu-able belongings out of sight or in a locked box or safe. Consider getting insurance for dorm belong-ings, which will protect you in the event of theft.

an elevator, use it. Stairwells are secluded and dark and often pro-vide the perfect opportunity for would-be criminals to take advan-tage of unsuspecting students.
Use common sense and trust your instincts with regard to dorm safety. Make college memories good ones by emphasizing cau-tion.

Many college students are struggling to graduate without accumulating substantial student loan debt.
Data compiled from Market Watch, an economy and investing resource, has found that nearly 70% of bachelor’s recipients leave school with consider-able debt. It’s estimated that America’s student loan debt grows almost $3,000 per second.
The Institute for College Access & Success has listed the average American student debt at $29,000.
The burden of debt may cause graduates to
accept the first job offer that comes along and/or impede their ability to buy houses or make other large purchases. Only about 40% of borrowers are paying down their debts after landing a job.
Graduates should realize that many loans only have six-month grace periods before repayment begins. Those who feel that student loan repayment may be difficult can speak to a financial advi-sor to go over loan consolidation, refinancing or extending the repayment period to make monthly payments more manageable.
Progressive Youth Agriculture Safety Day for ages 8 to 13 from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. August 13.
The Progressive Youth Agriculture Safety Day,
Virginia Cooperative Extension, is designed to provide education, training and resources to make rural living safer and healthier for children and their communi-ties, reported Northumberland County Extension agent Trent Jones.
The safety day program teaches children about
potential hazards around the home or farm and encour-ages them to adopt new safety practices through hands-on activities, said Jones. Topics will include fire safety, first aid, electricity safety, water safety, small equipment and all terrain vehicle safety, hazards in the home and healthy lifestyles. Children will receive a tee-shirt and take-home bag supplied by the Progressive Agriculture
-ered in the program.
Because of the generous support of area businesses -
