About this listen
What does college look like when you’re not 18, living in a dorm, or figuring life out for the first time?
In this episode we talk to Mike, a veteran and parent, about what it was really like coming back to college for a second time. Mike talks about balancing family responsibilities, navigating classrooms full of younger students, and finding his place within a college culture that doesn’t always naturally align with nontraditional students, even when support systems exist.
We hear how his life and military experience shaped his approach to school, the ways professors and the university supported him, and what helped him feel like he truly belonged. So, whether you’re a veteran, a parent, or someone who once thought college had “passed you by", this episode is for you!
