Just who are non-traditional students?
They're people like Claudia Rodriguez, an Iraq war vet trying to raise a family while balancing her job in the National Guard. Or Eric Patrick, trying to change his career at 40.
The U.S. Department of Education created a video of Claudia, Eric and a third non-trad student, Tia Marie Gwynn, a single mother trying hard to overcome obstacles. The video's idea is to illustrate just who is a non-traditional student.
They're people like you and me, lovers of learning who are older than 25.
