What was your motivation for applying to and attending college?"I had always dreamed of attending college. It wasn't until after my divorce that I realized it wasn't too late. I wanted to show my children that it is always possible and to prove to myself that I was capable. So, at the age of 37, I became a college freshman. This fall, I will begin the pursuit of my MSW degree here through the IUPUI (now IU Indianapolis) School of Social Work."—Resource Coordinator, Division of Student Affairs
