Idealist.org, the website that I’m many of you found your internships and jobs on (I know I did) is teaming up with the Young Nonprofit Professionals Network-DC for a happy hour tonight at James Hoban's Irish Restaurant. Although the bar isn't exactly one of the best spots in town ($10 bucks says it will be out of business before the summer ends) the happy hour should be a good opportunity to network with other young professionals and to learn about other cool things happening in DC. There's good specials too: $3 Off All Pub Menu Items, $1 Off Irish Drafts, $2 Off Domestic Draft & Bottles, and $5 Martinis & Cosmos.

The happy hour is actually a prelude to Idealist.org Graduate Degree Fair for the Public Good tomorrow, June 18th, at GW University.  The grad fair is a great opportunity for those interested in grad school to check out programs at universities throughout the country.  Who wants to think about school during the summer?  It’s not exactly my favorite thing to do, but it might make your mother happy and I’m sure you can score some cool, free key chains and maybe even some candy.  The grad fair is free, but be sure to register.
