Hitting Your Stride: Achieving Life / Study Balance at University - Paperback

by Nico Roselli (Author)

In Hitting Your Stride, University of British Columbia alumnus Nico Roselli offers a first-hand account of getting through the emotional challenges of higher education. Interspersing personal vignettes with lesson-book activities, Roselli lays out a path to college success by promoting social networking and campus place-making as grounding exercises, among many other actionable steps.

From registration and course selection to mental health and self-care, money management, studying, and graduation requirements, Roselli emphasizes the "transformative power of post-secondary education" to not only reach career goals but also develop social skills and self-esteem. By treating the college opportunity itself as a vehicle for self-development, he demonstrates how this experience helps one to grow into healthy adulthood.
