I had the conversation with a radio personality the other day who started their Mass Communication degree but did not finish their degree.  The difference between high school graduation and a four-year degree could be well above a million dollars in life-time earnings.

I want to welcome those to this new blog within Wichita Falls 360.  I actually grew up in Henrietta, Texas and finished up at Midwestern State University in 1991 with a bachelors in English and a minor in Philosophy.

I was the first in our family to get a post-high school degree, and it has changed my life, how a live and has given me a deep appreciation for the training my dad received from the old carpenters union on Jacksboro Hwy, if I remember correctly.  By getting the skills in carpentry, he was able to provide for our family of four.  My how times have changed.  The union, I think, is dissolved but there are many training programs in this area in which one may get skills.  My point is this, the one thing that has not changed is that you need skills during and after high school to make a decent living.
