College Connection Program at Clark H.S.

On Friday, October 5th, I visited Clark High School here in San Antonio, and visited with three different classes of seniors about college admission and financial aid.  It was a fun afternoon answering questions about Northwest Vista College, and giving advice about higher education in general.  The experience took my back to my days in enrollment management back in the 80's & 90's.
