Snowed In

When I first got to Cornell, I thought I was all about the environment because I studied environmental science in high school. Now, after four years of deciding on courses, stressing over internships, and lots of googling, I feel like I've finally figured out that I am into the environment and much more, namely sustainable development. Which is perfect because Cornell is one of the hosts for the annual All Ivy Environmental and Sustainable Development Career Fair. It takes place at Columbia University every year and Cornell offers round-trip transportation to the fair for $30. This year, however, there is the possibility of bad weather on Thursday & Friday which means that the trip may be canceled. Hopefully, it won't but the weather forecasts say that there is a 100% chance of snow on Thursday so if I can't make it to the fair in New York, I'll at least still have another career fair that I can go to.
In addition, I've been on Idealist.org 24/7 (Facebook stalking is proving to be quite the transferable skill) and I've found a ton of great job opportunities on that site. Idealist also lists non-profit organizations in Australia so if I end up in Australia (which is looking more and more possible since I can't find a job in the US) I'll have a reliable source to start my job search there as well.
