I've gotten good enough that I can sit with almost any student and help them see a real path forward. But my caseload is four hundred kids, and I get maybe fifteen minutes with each before the next one's at the door. I know exactly how to change a life, and I grieve every day for the ones I only had time to wave at.
More people experience this than they realize.
You know how to change a student's path, but the caseload leaves you almost no time for any of them.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
