Jones: I thought going back to school at this time in my life would be difficult, but I have enjoyed it so much. The staff here is very accommodating. They answer my questions in a timely fashion. I like the several different locations that you can take the classes at, and I also like the online classes. It is a great opportunity to further your education just by taking online classes. I plan to use my degree in Management and Leadership to move my career forward in my business. I could see myself being in Management and Leadership at a higher level, to learn how to manage the job but lead individuals as opposed to just have an undergraduate degree from another university.
