Should I Try Doing an Internship During the School year

I go to school at a state school that's about an hour from two major cities (Cincy and Dayton), would it be worth it to try and get an internship for during the school year. Basically since it would be a 2-hour round trip commute everyday it would be tough. Do you guys think it would be worth it?

Definitely not worth it for a 2 hour commute everyday. I don't even think you could squeeze in enough time to make your work there relevant either.

I'm sure there's something, if not small, in the city you live in. If not, you can always see about a part-time role as a research assistant for your finance department or something like that.
