Concerns about HOPE
After reading most of the September issue of the Six Mile Post, I think you and your staff are doing an excellent job with the newspaper. I thought the SMP was well-organized, informative, and interesting. I liked how the SMP deals with important issues, like the uncertain future of the HOPE scholarship. This is an issue that affects many students, including myself, here at Georgia Highlands College, and I think it was good for you to include some of the students' opinions on the issue in the paper. I also thought the article on changing Floyd's mascot was interesting. I did not know Floyd had a mascot!

Mascot, what mascot?
I just wanted to write and tell you that I enjoyed reading the article about the mascot change that is being considered at Georgia Highlands College. I never knew exactly what the school mascot was, or if we even had a school mascot. I believe that changing the mascot would be a benefit to Floyd as well. A �charger� just does not seem very fitting. Hopefully more students and faculty read the article as well and will do more to possibly change the mascot.

College offers second chance
Having a college education is a must today. I was a secretary and book-keeper for twenty years before selling my family business. I began searching for a new secretarial job only to find that a college degree was required. Instead of being discouraged, I chose to pursue a degree in Early Childhood Education. The West Georgia Education program being available at the Georgia Highlands College campus was a great influence in my desision. FLoyd College offers a flexible class schedule,conveince, and reasonably priced tuition. I sincerley hope that the high enrollment continues on all Georgia Highlands College campuses.
