Summary
Get ready, because class is almost in session. Welcome to the TBG University podcast, tailored for the 20-something who’s packing for a new year on campus, thinking through their gap year, enrolling in a community college, grabbing their stoles for graduation, and everything in between.
The most exciting time of an undergraduate’s school year is almost here ya’ll, and no, we're not talking about Halloween or the end of midterms. It’s almost Homecoming Season! — a time for tailgates, parties, special performances, yard shows, and of course for post-grads, the chance to reconnect with all of your besties from undergrad. When it comes to Homecoming, there’s soooo much to talk about — whether it be the dos and don’ts of networking with alumni, the importance of staying safe when hopping from after party to after party, and even how to afford all of the events that are occurring.
AFFIRMATIONS
- Homecoming is meant to be fun! I can use this time to do things that uplift me without worrying about outside stressors.
- I embrace this opportunity to engage in activities that bring my joy and interact with people who nourish my spirit.
- I have the agency to tailor my homecoming experience according to my personal desires, even if that means skipping the events my friends are going to.
