Been a really fun season this year friends and I'm already looking forward to 2018!!
Very off-track here, but I have a daughter who is a senior at The University of Wisconsin who will be graduating in May with a degree in Biology and plans to become a physical therapist, which will require another 3 years to get her doctorate in physical therapy in Med School.
Before she continues her education, she plans to take a "Gap Year", which was really sort of baffling to me after paying for her undergraduate education....I'm 52 and when I graduated from Penn State ('87-Smeal Business) it was expected that I would find a job and not travel around the country (and perhaps world) before either continuing my education and/or profession.
Anyone have any similar experiences or are the "Gap Years" now commonplace with todays students post graduation?
