Points to Ponder… Student demographics are shifting. Nontraditional/returning students have nontraditional needs and expectations. We have the chance to be trailblazers— offering a quality education to students who do not fit the traditional model of the college student. This growing student population should not be marginalized by for-profit institutions who offer questionable quality at supreme prices.
