So many assignments, so little time! Time management and creating a healthy school-life balance can be overwhelming, especially when students have other responsibilities, such as work, family, or personal health issues.
In this final episode, Bri and Sam focus on student success and advocacy. Listen to 3 students' perspectives and their unique experiences with accommodations and support. Co-hosts discuss time as an equity issue and sit down with Alfred Ene, Manager of the Office of Student Community Relations at York, to learn about how advocacy and equity supports benefit student learning.

“I don’t know how to talk to professors” and “I don’t know how to network or make friends” are some of the questions we find ourselves asking as new students entering university. The thought of forming new relationships can be intimidating, and that makes total sense. It’s scary to think about going to a place with thousands of people and not knowing anyone.
Join Brianna and Sam as they break down the best networking techniques to create valuable connections and opportunities. Does all networking have to be in person? What does virtual networking look like? University student Lavarnan talks about how getting out of your comfort zone and connecting with others with shared interests can create spaces for advocacy and community building in physical and virtual environments.

What do you think the typical university student looks like? A lot of the time we don’t imagine ourselves as the ideal student, whether it be because we may not see ourselves on the same academic level or that we don’t see ourselves represented in media covering university experience.
This episode, Sam and Bri talk to current university students about their perceptions of “the typical university student”, where these stereotypes come from, and what supports exist for students from equity deserving groups.
