It was a meaningful and honest discussion with alumni talking about the impact TCS had on their lives.  The students, especially the seniors, were interested in the choices the alumni made after leaving the school and their experiences with college and career.

Thank you Kini Collins for your generous sharing of time and talent, and thank you Cheryl Fair for curating this series....
