My inner geekiness is telling me to share this site. Try some of the problems out and post your results here.
http://online-judge.uva.es/problemset/
The address above leads you to a site that contains numerous problems for you to solve. The great part about this is that there is an online automated judge that decides whether you pass or fail. Most of the problems are quite challenging, which is quite evident with the low success rates for each problems.
By the way, there is a time limit in which your program can execute. In other words, using "brute-force" algorithms is mostly frowned upon. You have to design your algorithms efficiently so make sure you use what you guys have learned in your Algorithms class (which, by the way, is a requirement in any "decent" Computer Science undergraduate program). Use greedy algorithms, divide and conquer algorithms, dynamic programming algorithms, etc. when solving the problems. Good luck and have fun!
