All of these skills and experiences help students navigate personal and professional challenges at GT, abroad, and in their future careers.</p><p><strong>Dates</strong>: Sept. 2, 16, and 30, 2026 from 5:30-7:30pm in the John Lewis Student Center’s Piedmont Room.</p><p><a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.cloud.microsoft%2FPages%2FResponsePage.aspx%3Fid%3Du5ghSHuuJUuLem1_Mvqgg5ejaId3Io1ImhJaGC7XppRUMDNMN1M0MFpOR1ZWNFlZUDZGU1RJTENZWC4u&amp;data=05%7C02%7Clee.yarbrough%40oie.gatech.edu%7C9b3998c5091b4bc4e41108defc60e395%7C482198bbae7b4b258b7a6d7f32faa083%7C1%7C0%7C639225690218255931%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=QSauk10qeRNv8R8Lh0LOGwl7eC3INQsMu5R%2ByvsFLE0%3D&amp;reserved=0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Original URL: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=u5ghSHuuJUuLem1_Mvqgg5ejaId3Io1ImhJaGC7XppRUMDNMN1M0MFpOR1ZWNFlZUDZGU1RJTENZWC4u.

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
