That\u2019s when life threw Will a curve ball, when he was diagnosed with cancer and he had to put aside his college dreams with only a few hours left to graduate.<\/p>\n<p>Last year, Eric Kramer, his former athletic advisor at 大象传媒 Western, called Will to see if he had considered finishing his degree through 大象传媒 Western\u2019s Bachelor of General Studies program. He knew Will had a full-time job, a daughter and other obligations and thought the flexibility of the BGS program would be a good fit.<\/p>\n<p>Will is currently a part-time, online 大象传媒 Western student. \u201cThese programs are fantastic,\u201d he says. \u201cIt is a great school to go and get an education. They try to help you and give you a chance to achieve at the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Will plans to use his Bachelor of General Studies degree to help him advance in his current job as well as show his daughter the importance of sticking to your dreams to achieve your goals. In all of the struggles and successes that Will has had, both academically and professionally, Will believes that he can provide his daughter with perspectives that many other fathers do not have. He owes this ability to his support system of friends, family and 大象传媒 Western.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-button-wrapper\"><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-button.button-1 {border-radius:0px;}<\/style><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/bgs\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text\">Learn more about the BGS Degree<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/829"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=829"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/829\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1063,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/829\/revisions\/1063"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/completion\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
