Interactive discussion (you will be made to talk to people!). How are we adjusting to life 15 years out from college: marriage, divorce, parenthood, career changes, caregiving, health challenges, loss? This facilitated, semi-structured session is focused on creating a space to connect, swap stories, and reflect together. Worried about this being awkward? Us too. Bring your open, authentic self.

Building and Maintaining Community
Paine Music Hall
Research shows that strong social ties are a key determinant of health. And yet, reported feelings of loneliness continue to increase worldwide. In this moderated panel discussion, we will hear from classmates who have developed their communities in person, virtually, institutionally, or through shared interests or affinities. Together, we'll explore the challenges, practices, and rewards of creating and nurturing these -- and our own -- connections.
