Why choose graduate school?
For Ashley Claas, it was turning Plan B into her greatest chapter. After undergrad, a graduate assistantship covered her tuition, her passion for fitness earned her Instructor of the Year and she went on to inspire 600+ students at a regional expo.
Now a Double Eagle with her Master's in Secondary Education, Ashley is hopping off the spin cycle and embarking on a new journey.
Her biggest takeaway? Embracing change is a natural part of self-discovery and you shouldn't be afraid to try new things! Read her full, inspiring story here: https://bit.ly/4fa5yVR
