Welcome to Spring Semester!

Welcome to your new classes - SEM II or Personal Finance!

Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with your syllabus and class rules, and to bookmark this class website.  It is your responsibility to check this website daily for updates and news.  If we have inclement weather or some out-of-the-blue change to our routine, instructions will be posted here.

I'm so glad that each of you are here!  It is my goal that you will learn useful information that you carry with you in the future.  From helping narrow down career goals, learning to budget, obtaining tips and hints, and developing a nack for reading the news and the stock ticker... 

Furthermore, please let me know if you have questions throughout the semester.  I won't know what you need assistance with if you don't advocate for yourself.  And as a final note: procrastination is Not your friend.  It's not a healthy habit to develop now, or for the future.

Applications are now LIVE for the 2019 Health Careers Summer Camp. This residential camp will be held June 23rd – 26th in Asheville with students housed at UNCA. There will be daily workshops, networking opportunities and presentations at UNCA and MAHEC centered on healthcare careers. This camp is for rising juniors and seniors.

Students will experience MAHEC’s new State-of-the-Art Simulation Center and deliver a baby, practice CPR and intubation, push medications, monitor “real” patients, and MORE! They will shadow in MAHEC Family Medicine, Ob/Gyn and/or Sports Medicine. They will see REAL patients and work with REAL physicians. They will dissect a heart with an experienced Cardiac Care practitioner. We will have local physicians, residents and professional students meet with our high schoolers to discuss their own career path and the beauties of practicing medicine in Western North Carolina. We will have fun activities for students in the evening, including swimming, games, a night at the Trampoline Park, AND MORE!

The best part—It’s all FREE! There is no cost to the student to attend this camp.
