My son was only two years old at the time. At first I went to night classes just to earn a college diploma. I already had 15 years’ work experience, including four years of being a magazine editor. But if I wanted to keep my job as editor, I had to obtain a diploma. When I first sat down in the terraced, 300-seat classroom and touched my new textbooks, I was full of a craving for knowledge.
