Hello,

I think that we should talk about this. Trying to juggle work, family and school can be difficult, to say the least.

What are your biggest challenges? Have you figured out ways to overcome them?

What works for you?

Regards,

Cheryl Likins, Editor

Hi All,

Students have often told me about how difficult it is to work, take care of kids, do housework and still find time to learn.

How important has it been for you to have support from family or friends? Have you been able to go it alone? What tips would you give to other adult students trying to juggle an already busy life with college?

Hello!

I'd love to hear how you all are managing your lives when going to school as an adult. How do you manage to care for your kids and work on papers? Do you have a support system? How is it working for you?

Best,
Cheryl

Hi All,

Multitasking as usual. Story of my life and yours?

I was thinking about adults who have been out of the workplace for awhile.

The job market has changed and now it's likely that you will need new skills.

Have you considered a new direction? See my latest article about two-year degrees.

Share your ideas about possible majors and career paths.

Cheryl
