Student-Athletes and JUCOs Could Be a Winning MatchStudent-athletes have their eyes on the grand prize, and that usually means a D1, four-year school. But what if your student is an athlete whose chances of playing a sport in college are slim or still needs some more time on the field or court than they are liable to receive in a larger program? For this type of student, a JUCO (junior college) may be the best route. (And guess what, they even offer scholarships!) Find out more here.

Helping Students Feather Their Own Nests Once They Leave Yours
No one can deny that making friends and connecting with peers on a social level is one of the best parts of college.
Some of the friends you make during that period can last a lifetime.
Another connection that could have a huge impact on a student's life is the one they make with a mentor; someone who can help them develop interests, talents, support systems, even their path forward once they leave your “nest.”
More about that here.

OCM Item of the Week
This past week, we held a Zoom event featuring seven OCM Student Ambassadors who dished about all things having to do with life on campus.
You can watch it here.
They were awesome!
Among some of the things they discussed were move-in essentials, dorm necessities, how to deal with living away from home, and how to handle roommates.
A must-have item that got a thumbs up from each student was OCM's Showaflops: Anti-Microbial Flip Flops for the shower that have holes in the bottom so the water can run through. (Spoiler Alert: College dorm showers can get grungy.)
Check them out here.
And here they are included in a great shower bundle.
