'My colleagues and I are still in shock.' 32 majors marked for elimination at WVU

[ALBliberal]

31. I live in Albuquerque I'm a grad of UNM.

I think my DU name has some thinking I’m from Alabama.

Personally I had no choice but in state college and I was from a small NM town and earned a scholarship and had financial aid. And I worked. I consider myself lucky that I had choices and my parents emphasized a good education as a way to break a cycle of poverty.

I think kids should have lots of choices for advanced education whether it’s a two year technical degree or a four year college degree.

I guess this story makes me sad because it shows that the kids of WV as well as adult learners simply won’t have as many choices going forward.

And I think it can and will result in the State of WV being further impoverished.

Just my thoughts. Oh and I love NM. Originally from TX and I think the best thing my parents ever did for us as a very poor family was move us to NM.
