Students have a plethora of tools for class, but what about all that other junk--notes on contacts, internship leads, business cards, stuff to do with the future? Ever since graduate school I have used something like the above, particularly if I go overseas. I can take notes, stuff receipts and other bits of paper in the interior pockets, and it's small enough to carry around in a purse or coat. Oh, and it only costs a couple of bucks. So students, my advice to you is get a small personal notebook with pockets and use it to collect any scrap of information related to life outside school that might be of value later.
