At 5:45 last night a new chapter of my life began, as the
pages of college closed with the taking of my final in Psychology so did the
pages of the college chapter. As I drove
away from Western Technical College one last time as a student, I couldn’t help
but feel a swelling of pride and accomplishment. I got the opportunity to take the sales and
sales management program at WTC through some grant money and because of hard
work some scholarship dollars. My
college journey started after my son started with the program there, he really
enjoyed it, and was asking questions about homework, he got me hooked. This was a great experience, going back to
school as an adult showed me that I could do it. I even got to take a class with one of my
sons and tomorrow I graduate with another of my sons. I couldn’t be prouder of them. I did learn a lot about myself with this
schooling, I especially learned that I really enjoy learning and that if you
put your mind to it you can accomplish anything. For a guy that was a strong C student 30 plus
years ago in high school, I proved that if you do the work, read the chapters,
and take the tests that you can be an A student. Congratulations to all who are graduating
this weekend and if you are thinking about going back to school, and you need
the push to do it, please reach out. It
was worth it.
