I think that a career in psychology would be very rewarding, and it would be really cool if one of my children decided to go that route. There is a really nice school from which you can get your psychology degree while you are still working – their college was actually designed for working people! It is the Chicago School Online, and yes, you can do distance learning through them. That is a new part of their program that they have implemented this year. The school was started in 1979 by practicing psychologists who wanted to start a not-for-profit training center for those entering the field. The school has a large focus on diversity and multicultural studies, because, they believe that multicultural awareness is so important in psychological therapy. It sounds to me like a really great school and an even better community – and I would just love it if my kids, or one of them, wound up there!
