When: Tuesday December 7, 2021 from 7:00 – 8:30 PM When virtual learning began, many students found themselves missing much of the college experience, and searched for new and innovative ways to find that community and connection. College Spaces, with the guidance and leadership of student ambassadors, was created to be that missing link during these times, and has featured meetings on a variety of college topics, brought new and old friends together, and provided a special place for blind and low-vision college students to socialize and have fun. As the year anniversary of our first gathering approaches, the College Spaces team wants to invite everyone to an evening of celebrating everything you all have accomplished and learned in the past 12 months. Join us for an evening of games, reflection, and looking toward the future. With questions or to RSVP contact Daisy at dsoto@lighthouse-sf.org or call 415-694-7328. Please RSVP by Friday, December 3 to receive the Zoom link. |
