HCC's growing online courses educating those who otherwise couldn't enroll - ANDREW WIND, Courier
Michelle Rowell's life is a balancing act. The two children she watches every other week in her home-based day care arrive at 5:45 a.m. While caring for them, the single mother makes sure her son and twin daughters wake up and get ready. A little girl arrives after Rowell has sent off the other five children to school. When the kids return, she still is watching the preschooler. Once parents have picked up the children, she stays busy preparing supper and spending time with her kids. It is not until they are tucked into bed that Rowell can get to her Hawkeye Community College classes. Fortunately, all she has to do is log on to the Internet and click the mouse. She is among a growing number of HCC students taking classes online. The college is offering them for the third year.
