Alumni College: Living Strangerously: A Chance You (Know You) Want to Take

The need and ability to connect with other humans isn't just the basis for our exceptionally fast development as a species, it also feels pretty good—better, in fact, than most people think it will. So…what’s the hold up? For anyone who’s ever considered mixing and mingling at a reunion (or any social event full of people you’re “supposed to know” not to mention a bunch of complete strangers), with more than a little trepidation, this might not be a bad way to get started. We’ll talk about some of the obstacles to connecting with others, why it’s worth overcoming those obstacles, and how you can actually have fun doing just that over reunion weekend.
