[quote=Anonymous]I had a low-income single mom and was elated to receive full financial aid to a slac with no professional programs. Always encouraged by profs, fellowship committees and peers to go into a helping/social justice profession. It appealed to my empathetic side, my peers were doing the same and I was frankly clueless about what a low salary really means long term because of upbringing. I will never be able to send my kids to the same slac I attended because I had kids late and am squarely in the donut hole. I absolutely made all the choices that led me to this place but I wish I understood the full ramifications at 18. All I can do now is be direct and informed with my children in the hopes their children have broader options. [/quote]
