鈥淚t has been over 20 years since I graduated from high school, so I was initially intimidated to go back to school,鈥 said the Communication Studies major. 鈥淎fter touring the 大发六合彩campus and observing the age diversity among the College鈥檚 students, I felt reassured that it is never too late to return!鈥

I hope to someday work in a corporate setting where I can enjoy a traditional work schedule, receive paid time off and save for retirement. It is important to me to find a career that challenges me and provides benefits that will affect my future in positive ways. I am most proud of the example I am setting for my boys鈥攖hat it is never too late to pursue your dreams, and that with hard work you can achieve anything you set your mind to!鈥澛
