But she likes finance and economics, too, she says, and as a student at Weatherford College, she’s getting a taste of it all. “I’m just not sure what I want to do,” the Aledo High School graduate says. “I’m taking it day by day.” And Lindsay says her instructors are making it easy for her to explore all her options. “They’re all really awesome, really patient and helpful. It’s really been a boost to my confidence.” There’s also an added bonus her parents really enjoy as she is trying to make up her mind, Lindsay says. 225 COLLEGE PARK DRIVE “WC is a good bang for my dad’s buck, much less expensive than a big university.” Whatever Lindsay decides to study, WC can offer her the WEATHERFORD, TEXAS 76086 opportunities to pursue her interests and be prepared for the next step in her educational endeavors. www.wc.edu • 817-594-5471 Turn the page and discover what WC can offer YOU!
