Academic Search Premier (EBSCO) is a great general and interdisciplinary database that searches all different types of articles.  So whether your instructor wants peer reviewed sources, or articles in Newsweek, this is a great resource to use for your general education classes.  Once in your classes for your major, you may want to speak with your Subject Librarian for more specific subject databases.  Another helpful tool are our subject LibGuides!
