I needed a tissue. Some very honest and powerful stories.

Yes, I teared up a bit on some of the stories too. Struggles with injury, depression, death of a loved one, racism. Also many reminders of how hard it is to go from being one of the best students ever at your high school to just one of the crowd, or even one who needs extra help, at a top university.
