About this Podcast

In my podcast, I decided to sit down and talk with a close friend of mine who is currently in his second year attending SF State. I wanted to ask him about how to prepare for college and what is different from the things we are told in high school.

Kieran Ward

During the time we overlapped in highschool Kieran was well known in the theatrical department. He was VP of the QSA (a role I usurped when he left), and a dedicated student. He graduated in 2018 and is currently pursuing a Communications degree. He’s the coolest dork you ever knew and the perfect person for an honest discussion about mislead administrations and student sacrifice.

Why this Podcast?

I wanted to talk about this topic not only to prepare me for college, but to give other students more realistic expectations. My goal is to figure out whether our anxieties about college are appropriate, or have teachers and counselors misled us? This is the reason why it was important for me to find an honest student perspective of someone I trust.

Reflection

I’m glad I got to do this project because I love listening to podcasts and this was fun to produce. I just wish I had a little bit more time to finish it and make it perfect.
