Episode #10: Open Conversation with High School Seniors


Listen Later

I really have no idea what I want to do after I graduate.  This statement is one of the most common I hear from students as a College Instructor.  This podcast discusses higher education, the benefits, and pitfalls, the idea of taking a GAP year to discover a future track, analyzing technical or vocational opportunities, as well as the military and options for the 'creative free-spirits.'  There are intense pressures applied to high school seniors from parents, peer groups, and even society to conform; however, if we are honest, a perfectly straight line from high school to choosing a major, to a degree, to career success, to retirement is, for nearly all in society, a pipe dream, a facade, and an unrealistic expectation.  This podcast puts in context options, things to consider, and a roadmap for each student to find their own path.
