Summer is a time of freedom and hope, where students pause from the daily grind of studying to enjoy the sunshine and some carefree merrymaking but summer can also be a difficult time for college students with the bottom line looming and jobs sometimes scarce in a flooded marked.  What can college students do during the long summer days?  There's summer classes, but many students desire a break from the studies during the days of sunshine and warmth.  We have scoured the nation and found some of the most interesting and unique summer opportunities available, and many combine all the elements that make for a great summer break without the thought of falling behind. 

Nick Plato, the article's author, said this about the list:  "I was able to work at Summer Camps during my college years through a unique program at my school.  This enabled me to earn money, gain valuable experience, and do something meaningful during the summer months.  When I started researching opportunities for students during the summer, I was pleasantly surprised at just how many exceptional programs are available."
