some are twenty-four, some are sixty-four...We are not straight out
of high school living four more years of playfulness...some of us
are in college to improve our future or the future of our children,
many of us are changing an academic legacy by being the first in
our families to graduate from college. Others are starting again
after military service or making a new path out of a dead-end job
or relationship....".".I was tired of having spaghetti every
night...sick of living in a dump of an apartment. The thought of
having children was out of the question. I couldn't believe this
was my life. An education was the only way to change
that..".".Hearing those phrases "It's a girl" and "You may now kiss
the bride" made me think, "I am now a wife and a mother...never
again a student."""The desks sure hadn't changed, but in the past
20 years, I sure had."Non-traditional students face challenges well
beyond academia. In this anthology, adult learners share their
personal journeys. Facing fears, overcoming obstacles, to
