How to Get the Most Out of this Class
Be supportive. Your fellow students are here to learn, not to be critiqued. Encouragement goes a long way — save the criticism and unsolicited advice for somewhere else.
Share openly. Your experiences and stories have value. What you've lived through might be exactly what someone else needs to hear today.
Think constructively. Help each other see bigger possibilities, reframe obstacles, and stay curious. We're here to lift each other up.
Keep it genuine. This space exists for learning. Spam, self-promotion, and trolling have no place here.
