COD Students Learn About Real-Life Finance at Recent 'Life Happens'
The Office of Student Financial Assistance recently hosted an interactive event called "Life Happens!" During the free program, nearly 120 students completed interactive activities mirroring the ups and downs of real-life financial situations, including the selection of careers, marital status, children and lifestyle choices (whether to shop at thrift stores vs. shopping brand-names or using public transportation vs. buying a 2015 BMW 3 Series car). At the end of the series of events, students then analyzed the consequences of these life occurrences and decisions. Click here for more images.
