It's hard to overstate the importance of doing an internship during your college years. Internships provide a great way to get some practical work experience while helping you focus on the direction of your career. It can also open the door to future jobs - more than half of all interns accept positions with the organization at which they interned. Check the internship section of the Career Services job bank regularly to locate possibilities for internship positions. Link: http://www.goshen.edu/careerserv/students/internships/
