The Same Frame

Topper — Tue, 26 May 2009 19:29:54 +0000

My roommates and I all got the same university diploma frame when we graduated from college last year. They were girls that I had lived with for four years and we had gone through a lot together. It was really easy to find a diploma frame that we all liked. As roommates, I guess we had all close to the same styles, too. It was a lot of fun to shop for the frames. It is amazing to me how many different university diploma frames there were to choose from. We really enjoyed shopping and deciding which frames would house our diplomas after we graduated.

The frames were really pretty. We got a frame that had a separate place for the picture that we took with each other on Graduation Day. We also got matching mattes for the diploma and picture. It made sense to match our university colors of crimson and gold. I know that each of us will be going our separate ways, some of us are going on to graduate school, one is getting married and another is going into the Peace Corps. The different paths will never stop us from being friends.

The Family Scholar

TSJ — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 21:03:04 +0000

Last year at a concert, the singer explained her daughter was in second grade, then she went on to explain when you have a child in second grade, you’re in grade school as well. As a non-traditional age college student, I wondered if my husband felt like an undergrad as well. A few months after we married I returned to school full time. A college education brings a lot of rewards and many sacrifices.

I attend a local college, but many of my friends are pursuing an online college degree. Either way the hours of study and completing assignments add up. My husband has been a real trooper over the past two years and I’m extremely grateful for his love and endurance. Especially since I’ve been eyeing master degree programs online.

I graduate this spring and my husband is already planning a small celebration vacation. We can’t go too far, for too long in this economy. My husband has talked about getting his online associate degree, and I wonder if I’ll be as good a sport as he has been. Through the college experience our new marriage has faced a few challenges. We missed quite a few date nights, and family events due to my school schedule. I hope if my husband returns to school I can offer the same support.

Saving Money With a Discount School Supply

Topper — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 21:33:27 +0000

Our school budget was cut this year because a manufacturing company, one of the major employers in the city, moved its headquarters to another state. They offered jobs to local workers who agreed to move there, and since there isn’t that much here in the same line of work, a lot of people left, taking their families with them. Our student enrollment fell, and with it, our budget. We also had to lay off some employees.

As a school administrator trying to cut costs, I was in charge of consolidating our purchases of classroom supplies. Also, since we have fewer staff now, I wanted to make sure that we weren’t dealing with companies which weren’t efficient or accounts that needed too much attention. I decided to close some of our school supply accounts and shift our order to other vendors that provided better service and prices.

Our experience with one discount school supply in particular has been great. I like their wholesale prices, regular discounts, ease of ordering, easy return policy, low price guarantee, rebates, free shipping for larger orders, and excellent customer service. I can also call them toll-free anytime if I need to. That’s one account I made sure to keep.

Protect America: Get a Homeland Security Associate Degree

Topper — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 23:57:23 +0000

September 11^th left an everlasting impression in the hearts and minds of Americans all over the nation. On that fateful day we lost our innocence and our sense of safety, however, the one thing we never lost, was our faith.

It is this faith that compels many Americans to look into obtaining a Homeland Security Associate degree.

With such a degree, a patriotic citizen of the United States could obtain a job in custom border protection, immigration, the coast guard, FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) or even the secret service — the list goes on and on.

These highly exciting and important jobs can allow a person who loves their country to protect all that is near and dear to them.

An associates degree in Homeland security will prepare that individual and provide him with the tools necessary to keep our nation’s borders safe. They will also learn what it takes to secure airports and oceanic areas where criminal activity and traffic can occur.

Albeit a somewhat dangerous career choice, a person would always be able to say they are doing their part to protect America from the scourge that caused September 11^th to happen.

Who knew that an online bachelor degree program could award a person the opportunity to not only serve his fellow man, but his country as well?

I Want My Wife Back

Topper — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 20:52:39 +0000

When my wife and I had our first child, I agreed to be a stay at home dad. And really, it’s turned out to be a pretty good deal. After all, she made a lot more money than I was making. After she graduated from college she landed a great job in information technology. That is what she is still doing, and her company not only pays well, but also has great benefits.

So you would think I would have nothing to complain about, right? Recently she started a CISSP training course. I know how important it is to her; and I realize that the CISSP certification is a great big deal in the IT industry. It’s just that anymore if she is not at work she is totally consumed by studying for the exam. Instead of spending any time with us, she is doing some kind of CISSP self study. She literally gets out of bed, gets ready goes to work, comes home and studies then goes to bed.

I am not saying that I am a spurned husband or anything like that. I’m just anxious to have her pass this test so we can get back to our lives. Fortunately that won’t be much longer since she will be testing soon. It’s a great opportunity for her; I’m proud of her!
