Taking classes in Afghanistan
GIVE UP HIS studies while deployed in Afghanistan? No way. Bryan Bolin, a first lieutentant in the Oregon National Guard, continues to pursue a degree in criminology and criminal justice through PSU's first online bachelor's degree program.
Bolin, 22, is a maintenance control officer for battalion 141 Logistics Task Force. This means he makes sure all vehicles, weapons, and electronics are ready to go. It is while he is on break or off durty that he sits at a computer or hits the books.
"It may seem that I am working miracles by going to school while I'm here," says Bolin, "but there are many soldiers here that are doing exactly the same thing."
