Young women about to enter college will be glad to have one more item to pack: The Her Campus Guide to College Life: How to Manage Relationships, Stay Safe and Healthy, Handle Stress, and Have the Best Years of Your Life. Pubbed in April to coincide with the 2015 graduation season, it’s a fresh and savvy college girl’s survival guide compiled by the three cofounders of the popular website hercampus.com, the #1 global community for college women.
While Stephanie Kaplan Lewis, Windsor Hanger Western, and Annie Chandler Wang will not be present, visitors to the F+W booth (1339) can pick up goodie bags containing signed copies of the “collegiette”- centric book.
It was during their Harvard undergrad years that Lewis, Western, and Wang formed Her Campus Media to provide college women with resources to help them navigate their college years. Now, hercampus.com has six million monthly users, chapters at more than 250 colleges nationwide and in seven countries, and has been widely praised in the media.
Right now, the three are not only five years out of college, but each is newly married. That doesn’t affect the relevance of the site, Lewis points out. “The content is written by college women, and our staff is college women, so the site is still on the pulse.”
