Don t ever think it s too late to go to college! If you have been in the workforce for a number of years and are now needing to either retrain for a different career or perhaps explore your educational options with a broader goal in mind such as, for example, to discover the meaning of life then read on! This volume is packed with sound, practical advice from college faculty who stand in classrooms just like the ones you ll be in. They see students of all ages every day. They ve heard the praises and the complaints of students, and they know their stories and their many struggles. Remember, too, that college faculty have all been students! They aren t from another planet, but they really do understand many of the situations adult learners bring to the classroom. One advantage you have over those students fresh out of high school is life experience. You ve been around the block a few times, and you have a lot to offer in the classroom. You ll have opportunities to share your own knowledge and expertise at appropriate times with your instructors and with other students. No doubt you have some pretty strong opinions about things, too, and in a college environment you ll discover that you have the wonderful opportunity to express your ideas in such a way that makes persuasive academic sense. The college classroom is a level playing field. This means, however, that the ideas and opinions of others should be respected, even if they re not widely agreed with. So just because you re older, you don t have the right to toss out the window those ideas that younger students have. Listen and learn, friend. Listen and learn! Take your time and don t waste your time. You re starting down an academic road later than a lot of other people have, so make good use of the tools and resources and opportunities that are available to you!
