               <span class="item_body"><HTML> <HEAD> <META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft DHTML Editing Control"> <TITLE></TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <P>We recently hosted a workshop for women who had  interrupted their college educations at a point in their lives&nbsp; --&nbsp; not an uncommon phenomenon--  to raise children, take care of an ailing family member or pursue a career. I  sat amongst women ranging in age from their early 30s to their early 50's. I  listened to their stories and I felt their angst. They were scared, nervous, anxious...and unknowing.  When you leave something for a period of&nbsp;time, then attempt to go  back, you become acutely aware that the passage of time effects change. It's hard  to go back.&nbsp;But, if you have enough information, if you know what to expect, the  return is much less difficult.</P> <P> My hope is to help&nbsp;you, male or female, at whatever age, feel&nbsp; more empowered toward an education that  fulfills you in spirit and mind.</P></BODY></HTML>  </span></p>
