  • For Profit Schools Come Under Fire in the Obama Administration

    Are for profit colleges and universities in the gun sights of the Obama administration?  Some think so, me for one.  The new U.S. Dept. of Education, Deputy Undersecretary Robert Shireman looks like he will be looking into the various compensation and incentives for profit universities provide to their admissions and enrollment people at ...

  • My first disappointment....

    So, I have been at Ashford University and I can not say enough  amazing things about this school. Well, yesterday I got my first big disappointment When I transfered to Ashford University, I knew that since my previous college was on a different format than Ashford (I was taking a semester based curriculum), that not all my credits would ...

  • Reader Question: What is the biggest challenge I face with online education?

    So I got my first reader question and I wanted to make sure I responded quickly!  As anybody that goes to school either online or on campus, we all have something that we struggle with while we are pursuing this goal.  For me, I think that my main struggle is time management. It's not good that I struggle with this as I feel that ...

    Today on my way to work I was listening to AM talk radio, yeah I’m one of those people (sometimes).  Anyhow a less than, shall we say “enlightened” caller calls in to the talk show complaining about how every time a major business goes belly up the CEOs walk and the little guy loses his meager paycheck.  Fair enough, ...

  • Grass is not always greener on the other side.....

    I just started my current classes last week at Ashford University. On your first day, you are required to post an introduction about yourself. My introduction is much like the one that I have posted here at elearners.com. My introduction in my classes talked about how I am a stay at home mother and also how I am doubling up on classes. Usually, ...

  • Doubling up on Classes

    So I am currently taking two classes this term at Ashford University:  BUS311 Business Law I and ENG 125 Introduction to Literature. I am getting ready to end my 2ndweek, and so far, things have been really good. Business Law I is definitely a work load. This week I had 7 chapters to read. Luckily, the chapters are not that long and ...

  • Reader Questions about a Capstone Experience

    A reader asked me this week about the value of a capstone experience, its purpose and whether or not it will increase one’s marketability.  Well first I’ll share my experience, when I was working on my BS at Southwestern College they had a required capstone experience for all BS students studying online.  We kept hearing ...

  • A sea of MBAs at my new job

    Sorry to those who have asked, but I’ve not yet “officially” enrolled yet.  I get my performance plan at work tomorrow and I’m going to try and include my classes towards my degree in the plan in an effort to a.) get credit two different ways and b.) absolutely ensure the financial reimbursement which although already ...

    For those of you who have been keeping up with my blog you know that I have recently found out that my company has agreed to pay for another masters degree for me, which was great news because I’m a little overwhelmed and underprepared technologically in my new job.  I’m not hired to be a technical person, I was hired to be a ...

  • Western New Mexico University vs. Ashford University

    Okay I’ve had several people ask me if I liked WNMU better than Ashford University or vice versa.  The truth is I like them both but for entirely different reasons.  Comparing the two is difficult to say the least.  So in an effort to be fair I’ll just give everyone a pros and cons list. Ashford Pros: 1.) It’s very ...

  • Routines and Rhythms: The keys to your success

    I’ve said it before I’ll say it again, two things you need to be successful as an online student, especially one who is also professionally employed, is good scheduling and time management skills.  The thing that I use to meet the rigors of academia is routine.  That’s right, kind of like your grandparents, I have a ...

    Okay, a reader commented to me that I really didn’t tell anyone how I felt about the commencement ceremony.  I thought I had but anyhow, here it goes.  Upon arriving to Iowa I was excited to see the school primarily.  When I first saw it I thought it was really cool, kind of like stepping back in time with a nice, cozy, little ...

  • About the Ashford University Campus (pics)

    The Ashford University campus is located in the post card picturesque town of Clinton, Iowa very near the Mississippi River.  What struck me about the town was the historic nature of it.  The buildings were seemingly very well kept, but you could tell they were old (or more politically correct “vintage”).  Being from ...

    After a long, long 13 hour drive I’m back home in wonderful, less cold than Iowa, Texas.  Unfortunately rapid weather changes combined with very little sleep have resulted in my wife and I getting sick which isn’t good but overall the trip was well worth it.  Anyone attending Ashford University should attend the commencement ...
