Hello my little dorm room buddy 
In case you were too busy cramming for those exams, yesterday was Earth Day.
Of course, isn’t EVERY day Earth Day? :-0
Anyway, I thought I’d instill upon you some interesting fact regarding the “green economy” and how you can benefit from a “green job”.
Today, jobs with a green focus are growing faster than the average for all occupations.
OK - let me repeat that -
Jobs with a green focus are growing faster than the average for all occupations!!!
Want proof? OK - here’s what the US Department of Labor has to say about it:
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the employment of environmental scientists is predicted to increase by 25 percent from 2006 to 2016.
That’s HUGE…
The strongest growth is expected to be in private-sector consulting firms as more businesses realize the importance of going green.
So if you’re wonderin what kind of job you might be interested in or what your next major will be (assuming you’ve already got a major and will change it soon ) How about an online degree in environmental studies?
This is a rapidly growing industry that is constantly seeking knowledgeable and highly skilled professionals to lead the charge.
And you could be one of them…
…think about it…
You could pursue an online graduate programs in Environmental Management or get Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences.
And getting a “green” degree online verses on campus is an exercise in being green as well!
So help save the planet - in two ways…
Get your Environmental Management or Environmental Sciences degree, and get it ONLINE!
:-)

If you haven’t read the OCtober 16 issue of US News & World Report, you’re missing out, because
this is the annual issue of college rankings.
What’s really important to know is that they highlighted online learning in this year’s annual ranking
and one of the top ten largestest graduate programs on their list comes from Regis University.
They had three of their online programs make the top ten, which was measured by total enrollment number and other factors such as class size and technical support.
Out of 410 institutions across the U.S., Regis is the only Colorado-based university to be ranked.
The programs that were ranked where nursing, which ranked third, business, ranking seventh and education, which ranked eighth.
Regis is a Jesuit University and Allan Service, their provost, had this to say about the ranking:
“Our high quality and extremely successful programs in online learning are one of the latest applications of the tradition of innovation in Jesuit education. Our online degree programs nicely complement the other great work we are doing with 18 to 22-year old students in our classroom-based liberal arts and pre-professional programs. We’re very gratified by this recognition of Regis University’s continuing accomplishments. We will continue to seek new and innovating ways to server the learners and leaders of tomorrow.”

I saw an interested little snippet in USA Today.
It was a survey of adults who wanted to return to school and what their biggest challenge was.
Some the biggest challenges (according to this study) came down to these:
Number 5 - Attending classes regularly
Number 4 - Making a committment for how long it will take
Number 3 - Providing for a family while in school
Number 2 - Finding the money to pay for school
And Numero Uno on the list - managing other committments as well as attending school.
According to the study, 73% of adults wanting to return to school had this problem.
To me, these all sorta boil down to time and money. Mainly time.
So how do you overcome these roadblocks to getting a better education?
Well, that’s what this blog is about, and hopefully as I learn more about all the possiblities, I can impart some of this newfound wisdom to you.
Stay tuned,
Ben
