The Invisible String

While many view college as a great way to make friends and expand horizons, this may not be the experience for non-traditional students. Adult learners and online students may find themselves isolated, especially in comparison to their younger, on-campus peers. Finding just one other person that can make you feel less alone can make all the difference in the world, as Keiry Hernandez and Jasmin Moquete’s story will attest. Host Alicia Tucker interviews these close friends about their connection, from how they met at summer orientation to how they’ve supported each other through the semesters. Everything from rough assignments to the impact of federal elections, they leaned on each other and got through it together – truly showing that there is nothing you can’t do, if you’ve got just one good friend on your side.
