AZUZ: How do you choose a college? Some of you might choose a school based on the courses that it offers. Some might choose one that's close to home, or really far away. But how about for a money-back guarantee? Lansing Community College in Michigan is offering that deal to some students. If you take certain classes, and if you don't get a job within one year after you finish, you can get your money back! There is some fine print to this. You can't miss any classes, you have to do all your assignments, and you have to prove that you've been looking for a job. It's an interesting idea, especially in a city whose unemployment rate is nearly 12 percent.

 

AZUZ: This very idea got us talking in today's staff meeting about what people expect to get out of college. I know that some of you are planning to go this fall; others are starting to look at schools. What is the most important thing you hope to take away when you leave with your college degree? Tell us on our blog; you can find that at CNNStudentNews.com.

 

AZUZ: Before we go, how well do you know your neighbors? Tommy and Stephen lived on the same street for two years before they found out they're brothers! It's totally true. They were adopted by different families when they were kids and grew up apart. They had both been trying to track down their biological families for a while, not having any luck. Turns out, all they needed to do was walk out their front doors!

 

AZUZ: And now they can hang out under the same family tree. We should leaf that one alone. We hope you have a good weekend, and over the weekend, head to Facebook.com/CNNStudentNews. You're gonna see some new pictures about how yours truly looked when he was in high school. It's scary. Check it out. Facebook.com/CNNStudentNews.
