Community College Success Story
[When I was a student], I had to make a decision between going to take my final or running out of gas, and let’s put it this way: I ran out of gas. So, there were real difficult times. … A girlfriend of mine who now has her doctorate degree… we used to … figure out who had the most gas in their car … She had this…green truck that was so old. And when I would sit in the passenger side, if I moved the… floormat, I could literally see the street. And I thought, y, Dios mío, I’m going to fall through the seat… That was a moment in time that is not my reality anymore. The only difference between that moment in time and this is that I went to school.”
