Business Operations Analyst Chantal Sosa shares how she balances undergraduate studies at GGU with work and family demands during Covid-19.

“When I complete my classes this summer semester while working remotely and raising a family, I will realize a goal I’ve held since 2012 when I first registered for classes to earn my associates’ degree. This journey has not been easy! But when I reach the finish line it will be all the sweeter.

Meanwhile, I choose to view the shelter-in-place order as a time for my family to extend grace to each other, staying flexible and grateful. I aim to focus not on what we are losing now but how sweet life will be after covid-19. Both me and my older son would have had graduation ceremonies this year. I see his graduation day as an opportunity to express how proud we are of his accomplishments and to reassure him that this will not last forever! With my college-age son, we talk about issues he's facing: transferring, non-campus living, anything to get him talking. With my second grader, we talk about his upcoming day, create a to-do list, and print out his weekly school schedule. At the close of each day, we share our gratitude, a positive thought, song, or joke – anything to get us smiling.

I know that I serve as a living example to my children that it is never too late to earn your degree! At a time when many people are facing job losses, it’s more important than ever to achieve educational goals, so that we have the ability to knock on the doors to our future.”

We have a couple of great shows on tap with our GGU Presents programming next week. On Tuesday, we talk with Dr. Siamak Zadeh of GGU about the roles that big data and artificial intelligence are playing in the tracking, monitoring, and containment of COVID-19.

Then on Wednesday, for the legal minds in the house, we are thrilled to debut our McCarthy Institute Series video podcast. David Franklyn hosts Mark Puzella and Sheryl Garko from law firm Orrick for an in-depth look at the Romag Fasteners case, on which the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling in a trademark-infringement matter last month. The ruling immediately raises the stakes for trademark infringement suits.

Two great shows in one week, both free, and a reminder that GGU is a hub of big thinkers and big ideas.

"GGU offers a wonderful program. They understand the working adult who is going back to finish a degree and they have a platform to support that. When I had to be away for four weeks for work, I reached out to my professors and they were so accommodating. I devised a schedule for one of my courses that would allow me complete assignments around work demands, and my professors provided wonderful support. It was a great partnership."

- Outstanding Student Award Winner Krista Zunino, BA Business '20

Meet Jeffrey D. Yergler, Ph.D., Professor and Chair of the Undergraduate Management Department at Golden Gate University.

"During my college years, I was driven by the question of what does it mean to be a human being? How can I help people feel esteemed, valued, confident, equipped, and empowered? That question was always important to me. Today, I'm thrilled that we've launched the BA in Organizational Leadership and Human Skills Development (OLHSD), as well as our two new undergraduate certificates exploring topics in change management and managing business relationships. These programs are designed to provide our adult learners with the leadership and relational skills they need to excel in their careers.

Because we know that employers are seeking applicants with skills and knowledge in such areas as emotional intelligence, adaptability, conflict resolution, critical thinking, and teamwork, our OLHSD programs are targeted to provide exactly what employers are looking for."

GGU's summer term is 100% online. Learn more about our OLHSD degrees and certificates:
