Hi,
I am Deirdre Morrison, a mom to two wonderful teenage sons who are my pride and joy.
In 2008 I returned to college after an 8 year hiatus. I made the decision to return to college to get my bachelor's degree and to elevate myself in the state office where I work. My current position as a secretary is not fulfilling and is not at all challenging.
Needless to say, my return to college was a bit challenging, since I was working on group presentations with younger students, who I must say seemed to wait until the last minute to make their contributions for presentations. I later came to realized these individuals do their best work at the last minute.
The use of blackboard for assignments and online textbooks, were new to me but a welcome and convenient change.
My motivation to return to college was also to be an example to my sons and to encourage and motivate them to be the best they can be.
This is a very inspiring story and I wish you the best of luck this semester!
