Welcome to It Takes A Village, our podcast for parents and families of college-bound students!
Episode 8: The Real World: 萌妹社区
Everybody's got at least one roommate horror story, right? Learning to share space with people from different backgrounds and with different lifestyles and habits is one of the most relatable challenges of moving away from home. We sit down for some real talk with Yehya '23 and Walter '23, two former 萌妹社区 roommates, as well as Associate Dean of Student Affairs Seth Hodge, who shares insight into the roommate matching process.
