hey Josh, its Chancellor Whitney, great talk.

Who are your allies on campus?

Write a letter to the future you.

Is your first year of college like the 5th year of high school?

How are you taking care of yourself ?

Have you connected with a Staff or Faculty member on campus?

YES, we did lunch at my previous job with first gen students. it was great

Yes! the trust is a big factor in students opening up about things that they may have kept to themselves! Great point Josh!

Make a budget sheet!

Find the lowest cost options.

Having a savings account and checking to put aside a little bit each pay check into my savings account. Finding sales, promotions and coupons.

keep a record of your spending then make adjustments

Set Priorities (I.e. pay myself first in savings, bills, social and eating out $$)

Good job Josh!

I’ve noticed how much you emphasized joining clubs and getting involved. Do you ever think of or see yourself at some point in time creating your own RSO geared towards first generation students on your campus?

Nice job, Josh!

Amazing job Josh!
