Four hours of sleep, five exams worth 40% of your final grade, three cups of coffee a day. Sound familiar? Well that’s all over now- well for at least the next four months. The first day and usually the first week after the end of the semester is always odd because you all of a sudden have massive amounts of free time. You always assume in your mind that when you finish the semester you will be so productive and be able to get so much more done. Well that’s the complete opposite of what actually happens. You sleep in until 2pm and stay up all night catching up on your favorite tv shows and checking Facebook to see the status of your friends. The purpose of this project is to act as a guide for college students that want to have a highly productive summer.
The Summer of George is an idea derived from the popular Seinfeld episode where George Costanza claims that he will have the summer of George. Unfortunately Costanza ends up having the least productive summer ever and sadly the same usually goes for most college students (minus the fluke injury). All of those big plans to have a productive summer will end up forgotten by July. The summer of 2009 will be different and by reading through this series of quality articles you will be able to have the most productive summer in every aspect of your life.
Do not worry the articles are not “boring” or filled with “industry information.” There is something for everyone in this series so please give all of the articles a quick look. Every article is easy to read and the information is easy to apply. Please enjoy and spread the word about Studenomics as I dedicated a lot of time and effort into writing all of these great articles.

Great series! Thanks for including me in it.
You’ve done a great job with this, and I’m glad to be a part of it. Here’s to another great six months of Studenomics!
Great work, Studenomics. Happy to be a part!
Great direction you are taking this in, its great how you organized this and got it off the ground. Art Vandalay would be very proud, but why no posts conecentrating on becoming an Architecht?
Impressive set of articles, this is certainly a first that I have seen someone do anything like this. Unfortunatly summer vacations are over for me
Thanks for the support everyone! All I have to say is LOL at Doctor S. You are right man I should have written about the art of lying about your career. You may have made my day with that comment.
When I did my 3 guest posts… I wasn’t expecting to be one-upped with 9!
Good work!
Great idea, Studenomics! Love it. I totally agree with you; it reminds me of being an undergrad (grad hasn’t got much better in this respect, though!). Looking forward to reading some of these…
