To anyone who reads this, pick up the GED now.
I am an ex-convict who passed his GED at the age of 40. I am now enrolled at the University of Minnesota majoring in Human Resources. I was 18 years old in 1979 when I dropped out of high school. I want to finish my college degree in 2011. To anyone who reads this, pick up the GED now.

Shep, thanks for sharing your story. There are a lot of people who need encouragement to get their GED, who need to know that it’s possible and can lead to better things. Congratulations on everything you’ve done for your life!
