@CQuintanaDC @JonBoeckenstedt The cringe level throughout the article was... high.

It's not an easy time to be, or raise, a teenager.

The good news: reaching out to teens, finding ways to connect with them, and working to see things from their perspective goes a long way toward supporting their mental health.

Holding ⁦@Harvard⁩ up as representative of #highereducation or ⁦@MIT⁩ as an exemplar for #collegeadmissions is like saying ⁦⁦@AlabamaFTBL⁩ represents all college football or all @MLB⁩ teams can/should emulate the ⁦@Yankees⁩. https://t.co/27HQScKmy4

Playing catch up on the to-read cue today. Martin Van Der Werf's (@Medium) five-part series on admissions observations from a parent perspective is note-worthy. Particularly resonate? The utter randomness and blandness of college marketing efforts. https://t.co/mGXabyVzwd

This is my annual reminder that, if you will see a high school senior over the holidays, please do not ask them where they are going to college next year.

They don't know right now and they don't need reminded of that.

Here's what you can ask instead:

Giving thanks for wisdom words from Charley @HillbrookSchool
“When I started to view the college process through the dual lenses of vulnerability and shame, I finally gained insight into the most difficult professional moments I’d experienced..."

Now available: FSA announces prototype for the 2024–25 FAFSA, offering the financial aid community an advanced opportunity to better understand the FAFSA user experience.

This is not a complete replica of the 2024–25 FAFSA form. https://t.co/gxMhu4kzGC

When @iamwesmoore said “I’m not in the room because someone sprinkled diversity; I’m in the room because the room is incomplete without me” I got shivers.

The message we need at this moment in time.

@JonBoeckenstedt There should be a social just for those who prefer to not be social. Folks can just chat data one-on-one, or read quietly in the same place ... over a craft beer. #checkonyourintrovertfriends

Teen: Have you seen your campus TikTok? Or the influencers who go here?
