Cottey Demanded taking charge of your career preparaton. It's what you are in college for. As a result I have been able to be a mentor more so than I would have dreamed. I also can make good decisions. I have chosen to stay at home and raise my children and support my husband who travels weekly and is under high stress. I couldn't do this without having the background of becoming myself and being satisfied with my families needs and my choices. I also am currently able to juggle a new extremely flexible part time job. For me it's not about big bucks, although with my training I could be making that.

Also, when I transferred to my 4 year institution, I found that they graded on a curve and most of the sudents had no clue what some things were. The thought being that if everyone doesn't know it, it raises the grade for everyone. I want science students to know their stuff. most of their careers will be about humans in some way shape or form! I'm average, so I was surprised at the relaxed attitude of the profs of my new school. And, it made me reaize how much Cottey had helped me!
