Communication is major player to getting opportunities which may fruit to success. More opportunities means more chance to succeed, and even more chance to learn from failures. Students should be assigned a challenge (test to be evaluated) to increase their friends or "professional" (linked-in) contacts by , say, 100 in a week - for multiple weeks. Know their business/job profile, requirements, etc. and make a table of your contacts. Connect with peers in college and distribute information of various jobs, work profiles, contacts. Greater connectivity ensures greater employment opportunities enhanced by co-operative effort from entire class.
