11. After working in a mill for almost 15 years, I searched for the opportunity to go from having a job to having a career . So when I returned to college, I chose the Adult Degree Program at UW-Green Bay. My academic experience with UW-Green Bay was instrumental in opening that career door for me at Kimberly-Clark. The pinnacle of my academic career finally came in 2007 when I graduated cum laude with my Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I believe that UWGB’s Adult Degree Program is “hands down” the best for quality, flexibility, and staff support. Without the unwavering support of my advisor I’m sure I would not be telling my story today. John Stilp
12. What is the “Area of Emphasis?” The Area of Emphasis serves as the main focus of your degree. The Self-Directed Emphasis will provide you with the opportunity to select 12 credits (four courses) of upper-level coursework that is specific to your area of interest. This flexibility will allow you to create the emphasis that is specifically tailored to your needs or to those of your employer.

17. Without this program I wouldn’t be the person I am today either in my personal or professional life. The courses I took allowed me to open my mind to new ideas and to not be afraid to take on new challenges. Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “Most of us go to our graves with our music still inside of us.” I’m thankful to the Adult Degree Program and to UW-Green Bay for assisting me in getting some of my music out.
