By its own standards, the state’s public education system is faring poorly. Connecticut has dropped from first to fourth place among states with the highest number of college graduates. Less than a quarter of today’s ninth-graders will earn a college degree, according to the state Department of Higher Education.
Believing "no college" to be my destiny (oh, the power of a parent's words), I did not go back to college until my mid-30's! But after I did, I couldn't get enough. After getting a bachelor's degree I earned a master's, and now I'm in processes of getting a doctorate. And each step of the way I've seen a greater value in getting an education.
