S2E2. UConn Majors: ACES with Micah & Ashley

This week, we are kicking off a new series with our host Tomaso: Every other episode this season will focus on a major or college at UConn. To kick off this series, we felt it was only right to have guests Micah Heumann & Ashley Gospodarczyk talk to us from ACES: the Academic Center for Exploratory Students. Ashley was once a transfer student with Micah as her mentor, connected through his class, “Making Major Decisions.” Both Micah and Ashley emphasize some important takeaways about college majors in general with nuggets of wisdom from their own experiences, breaking down the common misconception that students who enter college looking to explore are at a disadvantage or can’t make up their minds. Be sure to tune in to listen to the ins and outs of the ACES program through a student and longtime Advisor perspective.

Listener Note: Conversations in this episode mention Suicidal Ideation and the Holocaust.
