As the semester gets busy, always keep the long view in mind. You are taking this journey to gain the knowledge and skills to achieve personal goals and to be in service to others and the community. Your commitment to learning now will have a positive impact on your life and the lives of others.

I understand from experience that going back to school as an adult can be extremely challenging, so I wanted to give you a quick shout-out! After a multi-year hiatus from school, I completed my bachelor’s and then master’s degrees at SPCS, and it was a life-changing experience. You are the reason we do this work, so keep it up, we’re proud of you!
