College is hard, and no one really tells you that part. Let’s talk about it.

Join us for What I Wish I Knew, an Orbit Talk (think TED Talk–style event) where speakers and students share real stories about navigating college life while facing financial, emotional, and housing challenges.

This open and supportive space is all about connection, honesty, and growth, because your story matters, and someone else might need to hear it.

*Real Stories brings the unseen experiences of college students to light through art and spoken word, creating space for honest conversations about homelessness and hope.
