My guest this episode is the lovely Kennedy Kilgore. We met
a few years ago in 2021 and she is a 2023 high school graduate. She was a bright-eyed junior making a name for herself, and I was navigating life with about 8 months of experience within the district under my counseling belt. She had dreams of being a Red Raider. For those of you not familiar with this learning institution, I am referring to none other than the Red Raiders of
Texas Tech. Tech is in Lubbock, so approximately 299 miles away from PSHS.
On campus Kennedy is a Dean Student Ambassador within the college of Media and Communications. Ms. Kilgore is also an Advertising major.
Things to note about Texas Tech:
What Makes the Texas Tech Experience Different?
While being assertive and confident about our university,
Red Raiders also celebrate Texas Tech's West Texas roots. As the university's first president, Paul W. Horn, said, “Everything that is done on these West Texas Plains ought to be done on a big scale.”
You know that slogan, Everything is bigger in TX? This holds up to it.
Tech, as us Texas refer to it, goes out of their way to “embrace
our distinct sense of place and our identity, recognizing them as formidable forces that shape tomorrow.” With focuses that lie, “in showcasing the potential and the achievements of our community, fueled by a pioneering spirit.”
So Kennedy is back to chat with her favorite school
counselor (my words, not hers 😊) and we are just going to see how life has treated her since she departed Senior 18 or so month ago.
