Eleanor Hillock

 
Eleanor grew up in the 60’s, the dawn of the women’s movement, when men and women had definite roles in society which were rarely challenged. It was a time when most men and women shared very conservative ideas. Her mother and father were no exception. In 1965, when she graduated from high school, it was just assumed that their hard-earned money would be spent on college for her brother, the future breadwinner. Although she had an academic diploma and high grades, she was encouraged to go to secretarial school for one year. She would work for a few years, find a husband and raise a family. And so she did. For years, Eleanor was a housewife, mother and daughter taking care of her elderly mother and father until they passed on.  
Then one day she remembered a quote from Walt Disney, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”  At the time, she did not realize how these simple words would influence and impact her life.  Eleanor had a thirst for knowledge. She decided to pursue her dream – to go to college.  …Read More About Eleanor Hillock
