Michelle Obama to Release YouTube Series to Help Prepare Students for College
“Years ago, Obama was one of those freshman students that found adjusting to college difficult at times.”
I have a feeling we will be posting some of these videos here in the future.
Newsweek reports:
Michelle Obama to Help Get Students Ready for First Year of College in Youtube Series
Former first lady Michelle Obama will offer advice for first-year college students as part of an original YouTube series.
Obama and her education initiative, Reach Higher, partnered with NowThis and YouTube to create a 10-episode “crash course” for college students. Titled, “A Students’ Guide to Your First Year of College,” the learning playlist is set to debut in September.
News of the collaborative effort came about a week after Obama hosted her annual Beating the Odds Summit at Howard University in Washington, D.C. Obama started the event in 2014 as a roundtable with a small group of students and has used it to give first-generation college-bound students tools to succeed at school.
A first-generation college graduate herself, Obama advised students at this year’s summit to major in something that excites them, reach out if they’re struggling and be patient when it comes to making friends. Regardless of the topic of the question, the former first lady’s advice largely centered on ensuring students knew they weren’t alone. That freshmen students were generally experiencing the same difficulties even if it might feel as if everyone had it together.
Years ago, Obama was one of those freshman students that found adjusting to college difficult at times.
“When my dad dropped me off at college, I remember feeling overwhelmed and I have a feeling that some of you might know what I’m talking about,” Obama said in a trailer for the YouTube series. “You’re not the only ones.”

Will she explain how to properly smoke Marijuana?
0bolo has a special chapter on choomin’.
I doubt that she is smart enough to give anyone advice about college unless it is to a all black school where there are no standards. On second thought most schools have no standards so she will fit right in.
Her whole point is to catch them early, and make good Democrats out of them.
Her first piece of advice is, Trump’s a racist and white nationalist. White conservatives are bad, and all are racist. Dr. Barack Hussein Obama, noted Endocrinologist and DNA specialist told us so.
Also, leave your bibles home and Christian beliefs home. If you have a Quran, by all means bring it. Abu Bakar Obama will provide video lessons on the truth of the Quran and that all non-islamists are the enemy. Finally, anything you ever learned about truth, justice and the American way. fagetaboutit.
