About this event

Your Career. Your Family. Their Future. What Does Success Really Look Like?

Three upcoming GPS Parent Series conversations challenge the way we think about having it all, finding the right college and preparing young people for meaningful futures.

šŸ’™ OCTOBER 28 | A Glenbard Graduate Returns Home!

From Glenbard to the national stage—and now back home. Glen Ellyn native Dr. Corinne Low returns for a special presentation based on her book, Having It All: What Data Tells Us About Women’s Lives and Getting the Most Out of Yours.

Drawing on groundbreaking research, Low will explore how women navigate decisions about careers, family, relationships and personal fulfillment—and what the data reveals about creating a life that works for you.

šŸŽ¤ Don't miss this hometown opportunity! Join Dr. Low IN PERSON at noon at College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn, or participate virtually at noon or 7 p.m. CT.

✨ And that's just the beginning! November brings an incredible lineup of programs, including two special events as part of our GPS College and Career Discovery Series, designed to help students and families navigate the opportunities and decisions that shape life after high school.

šŸŽ“ NOVEMBER 5 | Is College the Finish Line—or Just the Beginning?
Bestselling author and educational consultant Ana Homayoun, joined by a distinguished panel, presents Purposeful Paths: Connecting College Opportunity and Career Discovery.

As students face increasing pressure to choose the ā€œrightā€ college and career, Homayoun challenges families to look beyond grades, prestige and traditional definitions of success. Discover how helping young people identify their strengths, interests and values can lead to more meaningful educational and career pathways.

šŸ’° COMING NOVEMBER 17 | The Real Cost of College—and How to Choose Wisely
The series continues with bestselling authors Ron Lieber and Jeff Selingo for Selecting and Paying for College: The Nuts, Bolts, and Secrets.

This third installment will help families look beyond college rankings to better understand affordability, value and how to make informed decisions about one of life's biggest investments.

Big Ideas. Trusted Experts. No Price Tag.

Whether you're a parent planning for your child's future, a professional navigating work-life decisions or a business leader supporting employees and families, these conversations offer something worth sharing.

No registration. No subscription. Free for everyone, everywhere!
