Topic: Explain that you’re going to explain community college transfer plans.
Ice Breaker - Think about three unique statements about yourself—two which are true and one which is false. It is up to your fellow classmates to see how convincing you are and how much they know about you by guessing which one of your statements is false. I will go first by giving you three statements about myself… (Each CPA/AC must participate in the ice breaker.)
