What do you get when you google "going back to school at 40? 50?

I was curious to discover what Google would tell me about going back to school at a mid-life age.  Two articles among many are post-worthy and deal with issues in adult education.

The first link discusses the issue of financing your education.  This is not a surprise, because it's the same concern for traditional age school-goers. back-to-school-adult-education-student-loans

The second link is packed with individual testimonies answering the question, "Too old for school?"

It is easy to get sucked into the vortex of the internet!  For me, because I am insatiably curious, it's like a kid in a candy shop!

Hello!  The purpose of this blog is to document my journey through the next four classes toward my Master's Degree in Education.  The classes are in Adult Learning, and the first one is entitled, "Critical and Contemporary Issues in Adult Education".  My name is Wendy, and the on-line instructor is "Rog".  I hope you enjoy this work in progress.
