The advice I鈥檇 give myself as a new graduate 鈥 is the same advice that I give today's students. Stay connected with your classmates and make friends with as many good peers and colleagues as you can. You are going to be working with these people for the next 30-plus years and dealing with a friend is better than dealing with a stranger or an adversary.
