Roadtrip Nation

Roadtrip Nation was started when some recent college grads who had no idea what to do with their lives, decided to take a road trip across the country to figure it out. They bought an old RV and hit the road for 3 months to explore how other individuals found their roads in life. Along the way they interviewed over 80 people, including: the scientist who decoded the Human Genome, the director of Saturday Night Live, the stylist for Madonna, and the chairman of Starbucks.

Today, Roadtrip Nation has evolved into a PBS series, three books, an online community, and a student movement. They send people on the road who are interested in exploring the world outside their comfort zone, talking with individuals who chose to define their own road in life, and sharing their experiences with their generation.

Roadtrip Nation will be at USD to discuss how you can hit the road and interview your own list of leaders who have defined their paths in life. Look for the big green RV parked in front of the UC on Tuesday, September 30. There will also be an information sessions that afternoon, details are below.
