Beyond the Brochure: Navigating College Realities

Navigating the Complexities of College Education

As we reflect on our own journeys, the five women of our team realize that our experiences with college education are as diverse as they are unique. From varying degrees to different institutions, our paths have been shaped by distinct choices and circumstances. Yet, despite these differences, we’ve all converged on the same team, working together to build a company that we never could have imagined on graduation day.

The Many Faces of College

Some of us pursued careers in media, while others never considered it an option. Some took a traditional route, while others forged their own paths. This diversity of experience has given us a rich perspective on the purpose of college and how to navigate its challenges. Our contributors, representing a wide range of identities and life choices, have valuable insights to share on this topic as well.

While I believe that a degree isn’t necessarily a requirement (I didn’t finish mine!), I acknowledge that it can make life easier. More importantly, it’s a choice that many people want to make. My goal is to empower individuals to make informed decisions that will set them up for success, rather than burdening them with unnecessary debt.
