Change of venue?

There is more than one way to skin a cat.
I’m looking into an education alternative.  I’m gathering some information with the intent of submitting an application to a different college for next semester.  I’m frustrated that I have invested 2.5 years of work with a slew of liberal arts credits that won’t do anything for [...]
