"I
can think of no greater time to be in this profession thanks to the
diverse employment choices. My education will enhance my career possibilities
and pave the way for my retirement. If I choose to relocate to another
state, I will always find a job.
Getting
my education at SUNY Upstate couldn't have been easier. For the past
five years I've taken courses in the evening or on my day off. I'll
complete my master's in May '05 and it never disrupted my work schedule.
I had an
added bonus—
my daughter went through the program with me. It's often difficult
to spend time with adult children, so we enjoyed the opportunity to
study together. We agreed that professors were friendly, helpful and
understanding of family obligations."
