Can College Equine Programs Do a Flying Lead Change?

       The only constant is change!

It wasn’t too many years ago that only a young woman from a wealthy family could attend a “private college” which offered “equine activities” while she studied English literature.

A degree in Equine Studies was nonexistent.

But by the early 1970s, innovators such as Meredith Manor and Pacific Horse Center had recognized that young women wanted horse careers as trainers, riding instructors and competitors.  These “vocational schools” brought about changes at colleges, such as Salem in West Virginia where a young woman could earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Equestrian Studies.  Post College in Waterbury, Connecticut, began offering an Associate Degree in “horsemanship”, as did Findlay College in Ohio.  Other colleges saw the opportunities and “horse schools” went “public.”

Once in the herd, colleges soon had to decide where they “fit.”  Old established private schools often had the land and the facilities to allow students to bring their horses to college.  Such schools were both exclusive and expensive…they still are today.

We choose which professional field to work in or in other words decide our future for ourselves. One can add various arguments like we too fall in the rat race to earn a living, in order to be alive we fulfill the basic need, that’s why we study hard and choose a profession and other arguments. But the question that such people raising such questions need to ask is: what is the difference between a kid going to school and a kid working at food stall or begging?  Read more...
