\"Janine<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Janine Betts comes from a family of educated women, but she says choices that she made earlier in her life prevented her from earning a degree. When she decided that she was ready to go to college, an opportunity with Antioch University\u2019s Bridge Program helped her make her dream come true and even beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am grateful,\u201d said Betts, who earned her BA in Liberal Studies<\/strong><\/a> in 2017 and then her MA in Clinical Psychology<\/strong><\/a> in 2019, both from Antioch. She was chosen to serve as the student speaker for the MA in Clinical Psychology at the Commencement ceremony. \u201cI am really, really grateful for the people who believed in me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2012, at age 50, Betts began her journey with Antioch, starting with the Bridge program, which provides University level education for students who may not otherwise have access to higher education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
