20: Student Affairs Grad School Prep, part 1

20:Student AffairsGrad School Prep, part 1

WELCOME TO THE EDUPUNX PODCAST A few weeks ago, I reached out to the Millennials in Student Affairs Facebook Group and shared an old blog post that I wrote three years ago with some tips on navigating and researching graduate programs in Student Affairs in Higher Education. From the response this post always receives, I wanted to also ask if any of my recent graduates/new professionals were willing to chat with me about their experiences in grad school. The five folks I speak with on this episode are all FRESH in the field, with no one having more than 3 years of post-grad professional experience. Granted, not all experiences will be represented here, but there truly are some dynamic perspectives and critical critiques of the field as a whole. So I hope you enjoy this first part of the chat. And stay tuned for part two next week! THIS WEEK'S GUESTS ARE:

MUSIC NOTE:- You get to hear some tunes from the band, Neaux, which just released its debut LP, "Chain Up the Sun," through The Native Sound. Visit their bandcamp page here!- Neaux is the new fuzzy shoegaze band featuring former VersaEmerge, frontwoman, Sierra Kay. Neaux is a different direction than the former band, but I honestly prefer this direction and it perfectly fits the trope of The Native Sound.- Snag some physical copies of the new album - including an ultra clear and half pink/half white vinyl pressings - NOW!

ADVERTISING NOTE:- This week, I wanted to hype up my friend, Dustin Ramsdell's new podcast, the Higher Ed Geek Podcast!
