Settle in for a two-part conversation with Heather Snow, long-time friend and colleague of Dr. Shine.

In Part One, we will stroll down Memory Lane, remembering House of Shine when it was a blog and how she helped build this vibrant community. We’ll talk flip flops and curling ribbon, why I didn’t believe she had a boyfriend, and what makes her a magnet for people telling her their secrets.  

During the second half we’ll switch gears and discuss what she’s noticing about today’s college students in her role as Associate Vice President for Student Affairs. Heather will share insights about students arriving to college already burned out and the impact she’s seeing it have on their mental health. We’ll discuss what it means to be future-ready, not just college-ready and she’ll make a case for why trying to get ahead with things such as dual credits might ultimately set you back.
