our Guidance Counselors were worthless...ours encouraged me to go to college. Period. No dialog on scholarships, etc. my folks did not have the $$ to send me to college. They did not go to college but they did not discourage us either but the bill would be ours. I had no clue on how to research opportunities. (1975) I paid my way thru community college while working full time. Worked 6 years ...for a 2 year associates. Completed my Bachelors at 36 thanks to tuition reimbursement from my employer.
