'No Time is the Perfect Time to Begin' is the title of a chapter in the book, “This year I will…” by M. J. Ryan, in which she writes about taking the first step to make a life change.  Her point—and one that is just as true for starting college as it is for starting a diet—is that waiting for the perfect time to begin means not ever getting started.  As an adult thinking about attending college you owe it to yourself to take the first step.  Of course, we’d like you to choose the accelerated degree program in the School for Adult Learning, but no matter where you decide to attend college, it is important you take the first step.

We often wonder what factors are most important to adults in choosing an accelerated degree program.  Convenience, location, and availability of financial aid come to mind, but I was reminded again in a conversation with a group of our students that quality and academic reputation are important to these adults.  That’s good to know because it means our students chose us because they wanted an education, not just a piece of paper with the word diploma on it.  These students also admitted that though they like to complain about some of the general education courses, they appreciated the variety of courses available—some even said they liked the way those courses expanded their horizons.

Saturday May 3^rd UINDY held undergraduate commencement—the tenth since the School for Adult Learning (SAL) began offering accelerated programs.  In SAL the day began with induction of adult students into the honor society, Alpha Sigma Lambda, followed by a reception for graduates, their friends, and families.  What a crowd!   Graduates brought their parents, grandparents, children, grandchildren, aunts and uncles, and at least one great-grandchild.  The unbridled joy of the day justified all the hard work, long nights, and family sacrifice.  There were eighty SAL graduates in this year’s commencement—our largest class ever.  They showed once again that it can be done.  They also showed—once again—why we teach.

On Tuesday, May 13th, from 4:30 p.m.- 6:30 p.m. the University of Indianapolis School for Adult Learning will host their first "Meet the Advisors Night" in Esch Hall, Room 103.  This is an opportunity for anyone thinking about attending evening classes to meet individually with an advisor who will explain our accelerated bachelor degree program, review any transfer credits you might have, and help you begin your college career.
