Failure as Fuel: Building Academic Resilience in Year 1 with Dr. Stacy O'Reilly

It's not if, but WHEN, you'll struggle academically in your first-year. Chemistry professor, Dr. Stacy O'Reilly, shares how academic failure creates opportunities for students to grow in new ways. The purpose of this podcast is to reinforce that while the transition to college isn’t easy, everyone has individual struggles to navigate–despite what students may see and feel around them. Whether it be making friends, academic resilience, learning how to be alone, adjusting to a PWI, Imposter Syndrome, etc., first-year students have moments of transition each and every day. But within the transition, lies an opportunity for transformation.
