THE UNIVERSE: ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK FROM LIFE ON MARS Pro Tony Hoffman

Students, faculty, and staff welcomed speaker Tony Hoffman to campus in January as part of the Student Life Office’s Attention and Connection speaker series. On December 13, 2008, Mr. Hoffman was paroled by the California Department of Corrections after serving a two-year sentence for a drug-related robbery. While incarcerated, he set four goals: Race BMX professionally, go to the Olympics, start a non-profit called the Freewheel Project, and become a professional mental health and substance abuse speaker. Mr. Hoffman spoke about his experiences with mental health, substance abuse, and how he was able to overcome addiction and achieve his goals. The Attention and Connection speaker series aims to prioritize the emotional well-being of students with an emphasis on resilience, health, and flourishing. //
