Hopefully they have had some time to rest and decompress by now. They earned it after finals.
But summer does not last forever and there is still time to make it count.
Encourage them to touch base with their academic advisor before the new semester.
Help them look into a summer job, an internship or a volunteer opportunity in something they care about.
Have real conversations about where they are headed and what they need to get there.
You do not have to have all the answers. Showing up is enough.
The college kids who go back in the fall ready are almost always the ones who had someone at home paying attention.
That someone is you.
