Life U Blog—Jennifer is a 19-year-old freshman student in a Virginia college. She was one of the student interns who worked for Life U bringing the “A-Z course for personal and professional development” into being. She also writes articles for our ezine. Jenn will be posting her comments about college life in the blog—it’s rather like an ongoing journal. We’ll also post important news from Life U in the blog. Sometimes Zack will be posting to the blog. A high school senior, Zack is also one of the interns who worked on the Life U course and he writes for our ezines. You can interact with Jenn and Zack by posting replies.

The Life University Lessons online (all ten of them). You will notice they are much longer than your printed condensed guidebook.

The message board – Here you can post messages to other students. Do you have a question about freshman life in college? Post it on the message board. Do you have a question for the IABL staff or do you need information about something? You could always call us, send us an email, or you can just post your question on the message board. The board will be monitored to make sure it stays clear of offensive material, and to ensure timely answers to your questions.
