It's graduation season! This is usually a time of great excitement, a time to celebrate years of hard work. However, the current situation around the world is leaving graduates with so many questions:
How can I stay healthy and help keep my loved ones healthy?
When will I be able to attend graduation?
Will I be able to find work?
How will I pay off loans?
What do I do now that my plans for after graduation are on hold?
What happens next?
What now?
Instead of being able to enjoy this particular milestone, many are left with feelings of confusion, anxiety, and even more questions.
To get a sense of what graduates are faced with during this very unique time, here is a collection of articles:
