Forum for college age travelers?

My daughter is looking for a forum to chat with other college age kids that enjoy travel.
Anyone know of a Fodors type board that caters to this crowd?
She specifically wants to get recommendations regarding a summer European trip.

Another vote for the Thorn Tree at Lonely Planet, go to the Western Europe branch. It's a great resource!

Also Rick Steves, not necessarily aimed for the young, and their BB isn't as active, but there's some really good basic advice to be had easily at that site re packing, getting into town without a reservation, safety, etc.
