Alternatives to Typical Path as a result of Crisis

I imagine this topic was posted at some point in time, but I was unable to find anything on it. I, like many undergraduates, was and still am aspiring to work in the investment banking division for a BB bank. However, now that a few of the biggest players are gone,and with citi hanging on for dear life, I have come to the realization that getting a job with the remaining BB banks will be nearly impossible. I am still interested in the field and hope to enter it as soon as I am accepted. In the meanwhile, I was curious if people had any ideas for alternatives for summer internships that are related to the field and could help down the line. I thought working for the Fed would be a cool and interesting alternative, but was hoping people could shed some light on this for me. Thanks, much appreciated.
