We all know that simply getting good grades is not be enough to land your dream job or internship. Employers are looking for what you do outside the classroom. Contributing to a Spoon University chapter shows future employers you are involved, creative, and a team player.
2. Leadership Opportunities

The best part about writing for Spoon is getting the chance to be published nationally. Whether you have a great grilled cheese recipe you think everyone should have the chance to try, or you have a strong opinion on the Chipotle scandal, writing for Spoon gives you the chance to speak your mind and publish it for the world to see.
7. Creative Outlet

Along with getting your opinions nationally published, it can be nice to get a break from monotonous school work and get creative. Spoon allows writers a lot of freedom on article and photo choice, giving you an awesome chance to flex your creative muscles.
8. Show Off You Skills

What’s the point of doing something awesome if everyone can’t see it? Spoon writers are highly encouraged to brag to all their Facebook friends, Twitter followers, etc. Your article link will be all over the web for friends, family, and strangers to enjoy.
