Trying a Pilot Program at Our College

After teaching across the country for the past quarter century, I finally found myself at the college that I am teaching at today.  Originally, I had not liked the atmosphere of the college, but eventually it grew on me.  I figure that I will be teaching here until I retire, and I am happy to call the school home.

What I like the most about our college is that we are not afraid to try new pilot programs.  Though there have been some abysmal failures in the past, there have been some resounding successes too.  Needless to say, it has been a lot of fun trying out new things, and this year is no different.

You see, our college has elected to participate in a program with the mandate of teaching students how to save on the cost of college.  It may seem like the goal would be contradictory to what we are looking for in our students, but we feel that affording education shouldn’t have to be a luxury, but rather an option to everyone.

We will see how the program topic of how to save money on college goes over with the students - so far the response has been very good.
