Frame Your Degree
by Dr. Veronica Carey
Frame Your Degree is Dr. Veronica Carey’s practical and compassionate guide for students — particularly those from minoritized, marginalized, or first‑generation backgrounds — who are navigating the emotional, cultural, and academic challenges of higher education. Blending behavioral health insight, lived experience, and clear, actionable strategies, the book empowers students to move through college with confidence, clarity, and a strong sense of agency. Drawing on more than two decades of leadership in higher education, Dr. Carey offers tools to recognize the hidden pressures of university life, avoid unnecessary pain, and create environments where their identity and strengths can thrive, using personal stories, case studies, and accessible research to support their journey.
Recognize the emotional and behavioral challenges that often go unspoken in college settings
Build a sense of belonging and psychological safety
Navigate systems that may not have been designed with them in mind
Leverage their lived experience as a source of resilience and leadership
Advocate for themselves academically, socially, and culturally
At its core, Frame Your Degree teaches students how to “frame” their educational journey — not as something happening to them, but as something they can shape with intention, clarity, and support.
