Title: New Faces, New Rules, Same Dorm

This week on Hillman Rewind, Nichole and DJ Diggy explore the shakeups that come with change. The girls of Gilbert Hall face a new dorm director with a no-nonsense attitude, and suddenly, comfort zones are challenged. Meanwhile, a fresh face enters the mix and quickly becomes a symbol of what it means to lead with strength and grace.

We talk leadership, boundaries, and what it means to grow—even when it’s not your choice. From rule changes to role models, this episode is a love letter to all the lessons that come from the unexpected.

Title: Counseling, Crises & Cutting Corners

In this episode of Hillman Rewind, Nichole and DJ Diggy dive into the chaos of campus life when good intentions collide with finals pressure. Denise takes on a peer counseling role to dodge her own academic responsibilities—and it backfires fast. From juggling emotional labor to avoiding the inevitable, this episode brings all the lessons.

We unpack college study habits, boundaries, and the unspoken rules of campus beauty standards—yes, we’re talking about the scarf moment. Plus, we reflect on how we support others without losing ourselves, and how real growth means facing what we’re running from.

Episode 11: Florida A&M University

Title: Flirtation Flip: When the Game Gets Reversed

This week, we dive into a rarely explored angle—what happens when a woman makes the first move, and the guy isn’t into it? Dwayne gets unexpectedly pursued by classmate Peggy, and instead of honesty, he leans on a lie to escape the situation. Denise steps in to defend his right to have boundaries, and we talk all about emotional consent, reversed gender roles, and why honesty (with grace) still matters. We also explore dating older women, personal space, and what sisterhood looks like when your friend is in an uncomfortable spot.

🔁 We’re flipping the script—because vulnerability and boundaries aren’t just for one gender.

🎓 Hillman Homework: Have you ever had to turn someone down—or been turned down—and what did you learn from that experience? Or, tell us about a time you or a friend caught feelings for someone older. We want to hear your stories!
