Schools with Nontraditional Student Support
Eastern Kentucky
University in Richmond, Kentucky has
a group called Older Wiser Learners (OWLS). They also
have a Nontraditional Student Council, which is a branch of
the SGA there. Eastern has a new
website for OWLS here. The page is maintained by students.
The page features helpful links, photos, and more.
My thanks
go out to Amanda King, current President of the OWLS group,
who helped to update this information. Thank you so much!
Kentucky State University in Frankfort, Kentucky offers
a group on its website called friends to help
non-traditional students navigate the school. The website is here.
They offer support, plus a quiet study room and more. It is
run by the school.
"Our purpose is to connect non-traditional students
for fun, sharing, and encouragement."
Here is more information from the website:

Western Kentucky University's South Campus in Bowling
Green, Kentucky has an active group called Women
in Transition.
Their motto is "Helping Women Expand Their Horizons."
This group helps female students and has its own lounge complete
with couches, chairs, and computers. They have two faculty advisors.
You can find out more about this group online. Here is their
web page:
This WKU group is currently inactive (2007-2008).
They once had a chapter at the Main Campus, and one at the South
Campus as well. Below is the link to the WKU Non-Traditional
Student Information Page:
Attn: some links on the WKU Non-trads page
are no longer current. However, you can still find valuable
information here.
I was in the NTSO, or Non-Traditional Student
Organization, while I was at Western a few years ago. The last I heard, the NTSO group is not meeting at the campus,
but hopefully soon they will start up again.
If you are a WKU student, and are interested,
you can start a new group (such as a Nontraditional Student group) anytime. Contact the Student Activities
office for more information. at 270-745-2459.
