Baby Boomer Reboot Series: A Fifty-Something’s Return to College: Personal anecdotes along with educational and social survival tips

By Sara Kras

The old saying, "I felt like a fish out of water," is probably the best way to describe what it's like to go back to school during mid-life. It's awkward and weird, yet mentally invigorating and exciting. As a young student, I left college after one year and never imagined myself going back to school. But now, many years later, because my husband was retiring, I wanted to develop job skills that could be used overseas so we could travel. This would require getting a bachelor's degree. I jumped into this adventure spontaneously and found myself on a wild ride with many lessons to learn.If you are considering going back to college, this book will put you miles ahead of where I was when I started. You will learn from my mistakes and discover how to survive socially and academically in your new environment. Even if you aren't planning on going back to college or you already have your degree, I think you will enjoy reading about my adventures as you join me in my journey to becoming a college graduate.
