Adulting

Adulting is a program designed to support Mac students with events, resources and insights as they move through their Mac experience and approach graduation – such as finding a place to live, how to manage a budget, how to make friends after college, and more. The resources you will find at the links below were created and compiled by Macalester alumni, staff, and faculty with Mac students in mind. Please contact Andy Williams ([email protected]) with questions, suggestions or feedback.

2024-25 Adulting Programs are listed below. All sessions will take place in AC 102 in Janet Wallace, with food and beverage provided for all attendees.
