☀️ Build beautiful connections in a beautiful space this summer ☀️

What’s a REAL Team anyway?
A REAL Team is a committed group of students who support each other on what every matters to them most, whether that be social, personal or academic.

Your Team will be a space where you have the opportunity to share & ask for feedback from other Luminaries when encountering & navigating challenges and opportunities.

This will be a place for you to just be you, in an atmosphere of empathy, trust, reliability, honesty, & connection.

Your REAL Team meetings will be hosted by Mackenzie or Florence, but will be co-created by each group member!

Lastly, Teams are fun! This is a no-stress, let yourself be free kind of time! Students so far have loved their Team experience and we can’t wait to engage with you this summer!

Cohort 2019 Student

“Being on a REAL team this semester might have saved me from feeling burnt out. I think it really provided me with a place to just kind of ground myself, let everything go, and just be present with these people who are not judgmental of what I'll be saying - being people who will ask questions, people who will care, people that will just be present in a way that you don't really get any more from people in other settings.”

Cohort 2021 Student

“A lot of times we don't know what or how people think about you, but in these Teams, people are sharing how they feel about you. And I feel that's really valuable because they actually do care about you. I had not met anyone in person before, and a lot of times it was the first time I was talking to them. But I felt really comfortable sharing all my successes and challenges with them. I knew they were very supportive, which was really great. I really loved it, and I hope to do it more often in the future.”

“I can say with 10000000% certainty I was better off with having REAL Team sessions this semester! They allowed me to critically think about so many aspects of my life and I opened up to new ways of thinking when facing a problem or when feeling emotionally reactive.”
