Mothers and Daughters Studying Together by Mart A. Olson Once we graduate from high school, we come across the opportunity to finally leave home and go to college. Julie Rattcliffe, a sports medicine junior, went to Las Vegas for her first two years of college. Just recently, has she come to the University of Arizona. When she start- ed classes, she was faced with having to join her mom, Linda, who is a fine arts junior, at the U. Having a parent attend school with you may seem like a problem to some, but Julie and Linda thought it would be exciting and fun. They no longer live together, but they often schedule classes together. Julie ' s mother, Linda, had been working before she decided to return to school for a Bachelor ' s degree. I started off slowly, taking only a humanities course, Linda said. Then I worked my way up taking more humanities courses. Everyone in her family was behind her. My kids thought it was neat and were definitely supportive. For Linda, school is looked at as something you want to do. With Julie, and many other young students, it is something we have to do. She definitely gets the A ' s, said Julie, who ' s a B- student. With a difference in the grades, one might think there a competition streak between the two. Never, said Linda. That would be the furthest thing from my mind. At this point, for the both of them, it ' s getting harder to schedule their classes together. Their majors are so different and their elective choices are running out. The nice thing about it is that they make time to see each other. Other than spending time with each other, some- thing that most students don ' t get a chance to do with their parents, they always make time for much more. It ' s a great way to meet guys, said Julie. The guys aren ' t threatened by her (Linda). I was in Julie ' s creative writing class in the fall, and the thing I ' ll always remember seeing was Linda come in during the class to give Julie a book that she had forgotten. I guess I was wishing that my mom would be able to do the same thing. For Julie, the best thing I hope she gets out of the situation is not missing her mom, who ' s just always a classroom away. 22 STUDENT LIFE
