@SymoneBeez Internships should start each year in college.

I started internships freshman year.

2-4 internships can lead to a promising full time career before or after graduation. Some companies offer students full time roles based on the internship performance.

Let us learn to be rich in a different way: more attentive to relationships, more intent on valuing the common good, more attached to the local area, more grateful in welcoming and integrating those who come to live with us.

Argentina is a country that makes you want to keep driving just to see what’s around the next corner.

One week you’re drinking wine beneath the Andes. The next you’re walking through glacier fields or sitting in a Buenos Aires cafe at midnight wondering why life can’t always feel like this.

My kind of place.

I attended two #Salesforce World Tour Nonprofit CIO Summits. I had different takeaways from the presenters.
The best part of these #Ohana events was running into other execs from our #GlobalGiving ecosystem also using Salesforce in their orgs, and friends old and new.

One year into cell phone bans, Dallas schools see 24% increase in library book checkouts.

👏👏👏

"Public school districts in Texas are almost one school year into the first statewide cellphone ban, and a North Texas school district is seeing positive impacts.

Dallas ISD officials said that, district-wide, they have seen a significant increase in library book checkouts, which they largely attribute to students no longer having cellphones with them during the school day.

"I started hearing, 'Oh, I'm so bored. I can't get on my phone after I do my work or during lunchtime,'" Hillcrest High School librarian Nina Canales said. "Once they lock into these stories, they don't seem to care about their phones at all."

From the first day of school to March 31, 2026, the district reported an increase of more than 200,000 additional books checked out compared to the previous year.

A look at the library checkouts for the previous year:

2025-2026 Total Circulation (1st day of school to March 31, 2026) – 1,084,837
2024-2025 Total circulation (1st day of school to March 31, 2025) – 872,430

Total library book checkout increase: 24.35%

At Dallas ISD's Hillcrest High, students are following this trend.

Canales said there were roughly 500 books checked out in the first nine weeks of the 2024-2025 school year. This school year, that number spiked to about 1,800 books.

"That floored me," Canales said. "I had to re-do the report again because I was like, 'What, are you kidding me?'"

Students felt the impact too.

"Now that I'm busy with a bunch of work and college, I don't find myself missing my phone that much, even at home," said Yamilet Jimenez, 9th grader."
