Georgia Tech students are busier than most. Brainy and driven, they often pack their schedules full with courses, extracurriculars, and side projects. Every minute matters. (You probably know exactly what we mean.) 

And for many students, certain moments in their day carry greater weight than others. These moments are the inflection points that not only represent where these students are at a single point in time, but speak to their most important values and future aspirations.

Below, we step into the shoes of six students during those critical junctures. They share with us where they are, what they're doing, and how they feel.

We hope these snapshots remind you of your own years at Tech—whether it was the joy of finding work that would drive you for a lifetime, the endless possibility that those years represented, or simply the nose-to-the-grindstone hustle that drives nearly every student on Tech’s campus.
