Anyone else in school???

I didn't know where else to put this, although being back in college after over twenty years is funny enough I suppose. My health has put me out of work since July, so I decided to go ahead and go back online because I was pretty stir crazy. I can say it has been interesting. I had no idea what kind of stupid was out there. I find it hard to believe these folks even have high school diplomas, but I know they must to be going to college.

Anyone else out there going back? Got anything to share?

I'm in college!

Not everyone has to have a high school degree to enroll in college, actually, some universities will accept students on an academic probation who have never completed high school/gotten their GED.

Very cool. Sounds like a lot of work though. Not that I would mind that, but whew.

After trying to get through A&P II twice, so that I could get into nursing school....I decided to just go back and finish my Masters in Accounting.

So I'm an "adult learner" back in school too. Will be done this time Spring 2011.
