Are you staying in Lincoln over the break? We have a list of suggestions for things you can do while around town.

Apply for jobs or internships. Summer is approaching quickly and will be here before you know it. Gain some work experience the break and make some extra money for the upcoming school year. Check out Husker Hire Link and InternNE for opportunities.

Take time to appreciate the arts. See photographs as a part of "The Great Plains: America's Lingering Wild" at the Great Plains Museum or listen to traditional Irish music at the Lied Center.

Catch up on your video games. Take some time to relax and do things you enjoy. Just as the break is great for catching up on work, it is also good for catching up on sleep.

Read. Enjoy the beautiful weather and the quiet campus while getting some reading done. It's a great time to start preparing for finals, and you can do so in a relaxed environment. Visit the library or even read outdoors.

Work on assignments. This is a great time to get some work done without having to stress about weekly deadlines. Catch up and avoid stress later on.

Visit the museums on campus. Have you been too busy to visit the museums? Then why not do so over break?

Look for a new apartment. Are you planning to move off campus or to another place? March is a great time to start looking for a place to move if you have not already done so.

Check out new restaurants and coffee shops in the Lincoln area. They will be more likely to be quiet over the break and will provide you with a great chance to get out and get some reading done or even to just relax and search the web.

Spend a day in Omaha. Go to the Zoo, the Durham Museum or walk around the Old Market.

Get started on learning a new programming language.

Register for summer courses. Spring Break will provide you with the time to look into course material and find out if it would be something of interest to you.
