going back to college

Posted in unca at 8:46 am by admin

I worked at Gerber Products here in Asheville for about 18 years. They shut down 10 years ago. I’ve been going to school off and on since then.  Education is the one thing that can not be taken from you. I am returning to UNCA this January to take a few classes and perhaps graduate this time around. I took a break for a couple of years. Anyway, I am a history major so that means I will be adding quite a few of my notes and essays to my history section.

NC Bill of rights

Posted in unca at 10:06 pm by admin

the original North Carolina bill of rights is on display at UNCA library this week. I don’t know how long it will be there though. It is touring the state. It was in Raleigh and Charlotte a while back. It was stolen a few years ago, but recently recovered. so, if your nearby, stop by to see this.

unca first day

Posted in unca at 2:16 pm by admin

I road with my son over to the UNCA campus today. He is a senior now. The college starts classes today. Parking is a real mess. I attended classes several years ago, working towards a degree in history. Traffic wasn’t that bad then. However, now they have construction going on which if I am not mistaken has taken some of the parking away while they work on whatever it is they are working on. Anyway, we drove around campus a couple of times before we were able to find a parking spot. UNCA is a good college to attend. Unlike many other universities, most classes are limited to about 25 students. So, you get more individual attention from both your advisor and your professors.
