That makes two of us
. I'm a post grad student. I've found doing volunteer work while studying full time (minimum 40 hour study a week) has proved positive in so many ways. Most university's have a volunteer service or 'job shop' or there's always the studient union where you can enquire about volunteer oppotunities. There's no obligation if you talk to someone or drop in to find out more about what's going on in your area or within your university.
