Listen "Don’t Ask this Question to High School Seniors"
Episode Synopsis
ASMSA Executive Director Corey Alderdice explores the hidden stress and anxiety high school seniors experience when asked about their college plans. While well-meaning, questions like "Where are you going to college?" can unintentionally add pressure, making students feel evaluated or uncertain about their future. We'll discuss why these questions are problematic, how they amplify existing stress, and offer more supportive alternatives for engaging seniors in conversations about their post-graduation plans. Tune in to learn how we can shift our focus and ease some of the pressure on students during this pivotal time in their lives.For additional thoughts from Corey, visit coreyalderdice.com.You can also follow him on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, BlueSky, YouTube, Instagram, and Threads.
