Got my BS and then went into Air Force who sent me back after two years to get my MS. Was being paid to go to school and it made for a totally different experience. Was also married. Absolutely love the school, the campus but South Bend not so much. We lived in apartment complex about 2 miles NE of campus and that area was pretty nice. Wish we lived closer and could get back more often.
