Do questions regarding life after graduation wake you up at night? Why not go back to school after you graduate? Only this time, you'll be in front of the desk, not sitting behind it.

Teach For America (TFA), a national non-profit organization, sends college graduates to teach in urban and rural areas in an attempt to end educational inequity. TFA enlists the nation's future leaders in the struggle for educational equality for students from low-income areas throughout the United States.

Finding bliss may just be a page-turner away. This year's Campus Community Book Project's must-read is Eric Weiner's The Geography of Bliss: One Grump's Search for the Happiest Places in the World - aimed at uniting the university and city communities.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, think again because there are plenty of reasons why you will fall in love with fall.
