Are game design companies constantly looking for interns?

I plan to go into Digital Media and Design in college so I can learn how to become a Video Game Developer. I was thinking that if I wanted to get a chance at joining a game company, an internship at one might be good for my resume. Are U.S. Game Design companies always open to hiring interns?...

How can colleges ask us to have an intended major when we are all 17 and 18?

Its a great big world out there, and making us decide what we want to be before we are ready. #insane #I am too young

What is the best way to manage time and stray from procrastination?

I am asking this question because I am one who has poor time management. I also suffer from laziness and procrastination, thus causing me to perform mediocrely rather than brilliantly. This also makes me afraid of college due to the responsibility of self-discipline and time management. #stressed
