My dad was an educator that started start-ed Little League here in Orem. He would have been so excited to see the baseball diamond there and the school becoming a university. It helps. I have two children attending UVSC. It's closer, it's a great school. We love it. What u$ed to be a gravel pit where they caught lizards, now we study there."

They may stop concurrent concur-rent enrollment programs for high school students, I've heard, and that wouldn't be good. With college costs going up so high plus the fact that high school is boring for some kids, it's important. It's possible my kids may go there though they are young and J have no idea where they'll go to college, you know. It will mean more opportunities for people to contribute to society." soci-ety."
