586: College is MUCH More Than Earning a Piece of Paper
Update: 2025-07-14
Description
Too often, college is reduced to “just get the degree.” But what truly shapes a student’s future isn’t only the diploma—it’s the experience.
In this mini-episode, we explore:
* Why atmosphere, culture, and community matter
* How challenges like roommate issues, homesickness, and self-management are part of the learning
* The value of personal growth that happens outside the classroom
* Why day-to-day experience should be a real factor in school selection
College is a major rite of passage. The degree matters, but so does who a student becomes in the process.
