Meet Deborah

My name is Deborah Femrite. I went to MACC because my two sons were going to Iraq for 18 months. I needed an outlet from the fear I felt about them going into a war. I had raised them, and they were on their own. My house was virtually an “empty nest”. So I decided it was time for me to do something for myself. It was time for me to get my
degree. I checked into MACC and found that the staff and teachers were friendly and eager to help me in any way.

I am 53 years old and soon to become a grandmother for the first time this fall. If someone would ask me if I would recommend MACC as an
alternative to going to a four year college, I would have to say yes. The experiences there can not be measured nor can anyone take them away. I will
soon finish and go on to another college to get
my BA in social work where I will fulfill my dream of helping people less fortunate than me.
