    I thought about going to this school but would be in debt for a long time. Good for those that can afford it, though.

    Now it’s over $16,000 a semester. I was just approved in state tuition for Chadron State and it’ll cost about five grand for two semesters if I don’t get additional scholarships.

    well if you dont find what you need there we have a unique situation here!
    there is over 9000 acres of blown down timber from a storm that hit here a year ago and most of the work is in areas that cant be worked by machines!
    I need good people that are willing to learn and or all ready trained in this line of work if you would like to talk further email me at jak10860@yahoo.com and leave phone no. I will call you back! Tim
