If LinkedIn is any guide, travel advisor is a smart career choice. The profession is once again among the platform’s fastest-growing careers in 2026. According to LinkedIn’s Jobs on the Rise 2026 report, which tracks the fastest-growing roles over the past three years, "travel advisor" ranked No. 18 in the US. While down from No. 5 last year, the role’s strong showing is notable in a year dominated by AI-focused jobs—AI engineers and consultants ranked No. 1 and No. 2, respectively. The annual report is based on millions of jobs started between 01JAN and 31JUL, 2025, and evaluates roles that show consistent growth, sufficient job postings, and expansion to a meaningful size. Travel advisor did not appear on LinkedIn’s list of Canada’s fastest-growing careers, which was limited to the top 15 professions. LinkedIn’s US data offers insight into who is entering the profession. The median prior experience for travel advisors is 5.3 years, with the most common prior roles including administrative assistant, salesperson, and customer service rep. The role spans multiple industries, led by travel arrangements, hospitality, and technology, with the highest concentration of US jobs in New York City, Miami, and Los Angeles. Flexibility looks to be part of the

When it comes to recognizing forms of musical greatness, there are titles so broad and grandiose that it seems impossible to bestow them on any single entity. (“The biggest band in the world,” “the king of rock ‘n’ roll,” etc.) At the opposite extreme, there are distinctions so specific they hardly seem notable. I am about to discuss an example of the latter, while also making a case for this particular distinction being especially notable. It concerns the southern California punk band Joyce Manor and how they have made two of the greatest 19-minute albums of all time. First, some pertinent context: Joyce Manor makes short albums. Hardcore fans will mention this within the first minute of explaining their interest in the band, and casual followers will bring it up in the first three seconds. It is the most well-known fact about them. In 2016, they put out an album called Cody that was precisely 24 minutes and 30 seconds, and that is their longest record to date. It’s like Joyce Manor’s Sandinista!, and it’s shorter than a typical episode of The Daily podcast. Joyce Manor’s commitment to putting out LPs that are typically classified as EPs by most “normal”

Doane alum Nick Kouma helps workshop attendees navigate LinkedIn. Photo by Mackenzie Pike | The Doane Owl On Thursday, Jan. 28, Doane alum Nick Kouma returned to host a workshop centered around the networking and employment site, LinkedIn. Kouma, who has over 500 connections and more than 10,000 followers, shared his expertise on how to build a strong profile, network efficiently and build a strong brand.  To begin, Kouma spoke highly of LinkedIn as a way to connect with others. He finds it to be a place where one can be their authentic self. Kouma acknowledged that his mental health advocacy might alienate some of his audience, but especially as a man in the tech industry, such conversations are important to him. Thus, his first main point is setting intention and building your content “why.”  He explains that posts on LinkedIn should operate like a round-table discussion, not putting a letter in the mail. “If you aren’t thinking about your message anymore, why should others?” said Kouma. To encourage engagement, he suggested creating posts that invite responses. One student in the audience, senior Violet Ahrens, applied this advice by crafting a post that reflected on their own “why” statement and prompted

Feb. 3, 2026, 6:01 a.m. ET Madelyn Varela is a Heinen's cheesemonger and social media influencer who's traveled around the world with a goal to make cheese more approachable. Varela began creating short-form videos about what was in the cheese case at Old Brooklyn to help customers who were overwhelmed or had social anxiety around asking questions. Looking forward, she plans to continue growing her platform and become more involved in the American Cheese Society. Growing up, Madelyn Varela got the impression that not much was expected of her. Teachers believed her dyslexia and dyscalculia diagnoses weren’t real. Some called her stupid and claimed she wouldn’t amount to much because of her autism spectrum disorder. At 15 years old, she was reading at a third grade level. Family members worried that on her current trajectory, she would never leave home. No one could’ve imagined that a decade later, Varela would be a cheesemonger and social media influencer who's traveled around the world with a goal to make cheese more approachable. “A lot of my adult life has been forged out of spite and a desire to prove people wrong,” she said. Cheesy Talk with Madelyn Varela Varela showcases lesser-known and

Skip to content 3 Feb 2026 The ban on under-16s in Australia has led to mass Snapchat account removals, while platforms caution that current age-assurance tools remain unreliable and open to circumvention. Snapchat has blocked more than 415,000 Australian accounts after the national ban on under-16s began, marking a rapid escalation in the country’s effort to restrict children’s access to major platforms. The company relied on a mix of self-reported ages and age-detection technologies to identify users who appeared to be under 16. The platform warned that age verification still faces serious shortcomings, leaving room for teenagers to bypass safeguards rather than supporting reliable compliance. Facial estimation tools remain accurate only within a narrow range, meaning some young people may slip through while older users risk losing access. Snapchat also noted the likelihood that teenagers will shift towards less regulated messaging apps. The eSafety commissioner has focused regulatory pressure on the 10 largest platforms, although all services with Australian users are expected to assess whether they fall under the new requirements. Officials have acknowledged that the technology needs improvement and that reliability issues, such as the absence of a liveness check, contributed to false results. More than 4.7 million accounts

The Illini Republicans club at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is facing backlash after posting an illustration on social media of a masked gunman holding a weapon to a kneeling man’s head — alongside the caption, “Only traitors help invaders.” The Instagram post, published Friday, also says Alex Pretti and Renée Good — who were both fatally shot by federal agents in Minneapolis last month — had “voided their liberties the moment they decided they were above the law.” “Our nation has come under invasion from the masses of the third world and those incompatible with Western civilization,” the post says. “Now, the current administration, as duly elected by its people to do so, has taken a stand against this invasion.” The illustration was later deleted from the post, as first reported by the Daily Illini. But it prompted a complaint to the university’s Title VI Office, and drew a slew of criticism from U. of I. students online, who argue that it glorified the deaths of Pretti and Good as well as the unrest engulfing Minnesota. “My first initial reaction was just disgust, horror and nausea,” said sophomore Rylee Graves, 19, a member of Illini Democrats. “For them
