How do I find mentors through my college courses that will help me find out what career I truly want to choose?

Are my professors mentors or are there other people/places around where I can find a mentor? #career-counseling

Ways to combine music and linguistics/foreign language?

I love piano; I also love languages, both learning to speak them and also learning about the more analytical/scientific aspect (i.e. linguistics). I wanted to know if there were any jobs that could combine the two? Entrepreneurship perhaps?
