Yes, please do share your plans. We spend so much time preparing them for
college, many of them are woefully unprepared for life when they get there.

Hi Michele,

We have a loose collection of workshops that we offer seniors the last two
weeks of school. The topics depend on faculty interest. Last year there
was one on buying a used car. I did a workshop on college research and
libraries. We also had a panel of alums talk about their transition to
college.

Feel free to follow-up if we need more detail. And please share your
plans! We'd love to benefit from your research.

Thanks,

Hi all,

My school is implementing a program for second-semester seniors to help
prep them with real-life skills for college. We're in the brainstorming
stage at this point, and plan to cover things like laundry,
shopping/cooking, budgeting, changing a tire/basic car care, interviewing
skills, campus security awareness, etc.

Is anyone's school is already doing such a program, and if so, would you
be willing to share what you are doing, how it's going, best practices, and
any general words of wisdom?

Thanks so much!

Best,
