Students will recognize that although normative expectations about the transition to adulthood exist, the experience of becoming an adult differs from person to person. Students will identify factors that influence the transition to adulthood, will examine what adulthood means to them personally, and will develop practical skills to ensure that they feel their own transitions to adulthood will be successful.
