I am pursuing a college education because I would like to become a teacher. I plan to major in history and take education courses to become a secondary teacher after graduation. After teaching approximately two or three years, I would like to begin my masters in education. At this time, I also plan to take classes in administration and guidance so that I can be an administrator or guidance counselor if the opportunity becomes available. …showed first 75 words of 200 total…

…showed last 75 words of 200 total…My hopes are to finance my education through scholarships and grants. However, if this is not possible, I plan to take out a student loan through MSU. While in college, I intend to earn extra income by serving as a student worker for MSU's history department. As of February 24, 2004, I have received one scholarship from Phi Delta Kappa totaling $250. I have also applied for several scholarships through Murray State University, but results are still pending.
