This podcast takes a look at a more underground faction of the collegiate experience: secret societies.

They are so thankful for your time!

College students have the choice to either go to Cabo or on a cruise for their break, but these students decided to take a completely different route. Students and staff share their experiences of alternative breaks and how it impacted their time in college. The stories that were shared in the podcast emphasize the importance to have college students and Student Affairs professionals participate in an Alternative Break Program.
