New college graduates are having a harder time finding work, and as a result, some of them could see their careers and earnings take a hit for years. Meaning that recent college graduates have been more likely to be unemployed than the broader population. This new normal has worked out OK for some Americans, but it's been particularly tough on new college graduates. While the tough job market could temporarily hurt some young graduates' earnings, there's reason to be optimistic that their finances could eventually recover. But if the job market continues to prove frustrating, some of them may begin to wonder.

Carolina Williams went viral in 2017 for her unique Papa Johns-inspired essay that earned the teen admission into Yale University. The first member of her family to go to college, Williams didn't necessarily have her heart set on an Ivy League education. She loved both Yale and Auburn's campuses and could see herself as a member of either student body. But Auburn's analytics program, along with its much closer proximity to her home and family in Tennessee, won Williams over. Here's why she skipped the Ivy League and how it's worked out for her post-grad.

Larock's experience comes at a time when, at least on the surface, the jobs market has continued to glide along. But worries are growing that the labor market is beginning to show cracks. Welcome to the good news-bad news labor market, where the collective experience is positive but not as much for individuals in particular groups. "But the bad news is that new entrants to the labor market are faring less well," Peng added. While Peng characterized the jobs market as "strong overall," she said there are "soft soft spots" that are particularly hitting "new entrants to the workforce."

But there was one thing I was certain about: my kids would be bilingual in English and Spanish. My approach was to speak to my kids in Spanish and see what happened. When they started talking, people couldn't understand what they saidWhen all my kids started speaking their first words, only my husband and I could understand what they were saying because they would mix both languages in a sentence. AdvertisementAt first, I didn't think they were fully fluent in Spanish since they would also speak to me in English despite me asking questions in Spanish. But when my parents — who don't speak English — are visiting, my kids can talk to them in perfect, fully-formed sentences in Spanish.

Federal graduate school loans are more expensive, too, with higher interest rates than loans for undergraduate studies. On top of that, 55% of master's degree-holders have debt from both their undergraduate and graduate studies, owing an average total of over $69,000. Similar to undergraduate degrees, science, technology, engineering and math-related master's degrees tend to lead to higher-paying salaries compared with degrees in the arts and humanities. That said, these are the 10 master's degrees with the highest average starting salaries for the class of 2022, according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers. In fact, fewer than 60% of master's degree programs deliver a positive return on investment, according to a recent study by The Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity.

Before co-founding Netflix, Reed Hastings thought another of his business ideas would become a household name. Specifically, it was a "foot mouse" — where users could control a computer cursor with their feet, Hastings said at a recent Stanford Graduate School of Business event. "It was a terrible idea, but I was equally committed to that terrible idea as I was to Netflix," he said. In the case of the foot mouse, Hastings was a Stanford graduate student at the time, working toward his master's in computer science. He even hired a mechanical engineering graduate student to mockup a prototype.

"The fact remains that the job market has remained more robust and resilient than had been expected," he added. And yet, there are a few things that young adults entering the job market aren't willing to compromise on, especially when it comes to work-life balance. Going forward, however, there may be fewer remote options for those just starting out. Where new grads get the best bang for their buckCompanies with remote work opportunities will allow job seekers to cast a wider net, Salemi said. After years of high inflation, new grads must also contend with elevated food, transportation and housing costs, depending on where they go.

Dice snakes can fake their own death when being attacked by predators, putting on a theatrical display that includes smearing themselves with their own poop and letting blood ooze from their mouths. To test this, the researchers traveled to Golem Grad, an island in a lake in North Macedonia, where the snakes are common. They observed that some snakes played dead by leaving their mouth wide open, some smeared themselves with poop and others oozed blood from their mouth, too. Overall, the snakes spent between about six and 24 seconds playing dead. While the snakes don’t squirt blood directly at their predators, like horned lizards do, bleeding from the mouth signals their apparent death to the predator.
