[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think the trip is that big a deal, but that internship could be valuable. This seems to be how a lot of people get internships in college by knowing somebody. If the internship is quality, have DS go on the trip and be a great travel buddy and get that internship next summer.[/quote] ^This. Keep a tight relationship with the roommate will be very important to OP’s DS. In today’s economy, it is very important that who you know or who knows you. My DS graduated in summer 2024, and secured a very good paying job, 130K, because his best friend’s father was the hiring manager. They picked him over folks from Ivies, Duke, and UVA because he was the hiring manager’s son best friend. Rich people also want to hang out with talented people. They are also very selective in who they want to be friends with because everyone wants something from them. OP’s kid must be a very kind and honest person to his roommate to reap those rewards.
