A lot of the island students drag their feet about going off to college. It isn't that they don't want the education, it is that they wwere raised in an insulated fishbowl and know it. There are too many unknowns "away".<br /><br />Just this Summer I talked to two different girls who quit college their freshman year and ran home because living "off island" was overwhelming. They are now both returning to college (two years older and hopefully wiser) ready to try again. Maybe if more of them were better prepared when they left the first time, they wouldn't return home frightened and defeated.quillyhttp://quilldancer.comnoreply@blogger.com
