We continue the conversation around "The Value of Higher Education in Building Your Career" in today's episode with David Vernon, the Associate Vice President of the Wasatch Region for Utah State University's Statewide Campuses and Jennifer McGaughey, the Assistant Director of Counseling in the Student Financial Support Department here at Utah State University. In this episode we explore barriers to college, specifically zooming in on various ways students can afford their degrees.
David came to the USU Salt Lake Center as a post traditional student pursuing a master of education, and now he runs the whole region. David leads his team to serve students who, just like him, have a hope for a better future. Jennifer has more than 25 years of experience in the federal financial aid field. She has spent her career helping potential and current students in navigating and discovering avenues to fund their college education.
