Former first lady, Michelle Obama, is launching an IG series that will focus on four students going through the ups and downs of college.
The six-episode series is titled “A Year of First,” and is in partnership with ATTN and Obama’s Reach higher initiative. It is set to premier on the ending if this month and conclude in June.
The students are coming from different parts of the world and are going to be sharing the highs and lows of college and everything in between.
“The first year of college is exciting, but also a little nerve-racking. As a first-generation college student myself, I know how intimidating it can be to try to navigate through a new place and make new friends, all while trying to figure out who you are and who you want to be. That’s why I’m so excited that @reachhigher is teaming up with @attndotcom to share the stories of four first-year college students: Robert, Linette, Regan, and Haseeb. Can’t wait for you all to meet them and learn more about what taking that leap really feels like, day in and day out. Stay tuned!” Said Obama.
According to Time, the aim of the series is to inspire and empower students across the country, showing them that they are not alone in their experiences with higher education.
This is an exciting project that will provide students around the world with an Idea of what to expect in college.
