LU meets the needs of all people in society, especially the working class. Life/Work experience is far better training than one could ever get from sitting in a classroom.

After putting college aside to raise a family, it was hard to go back to school. After working 40 hours per week, I had NO time to sit in a classroom at night. Lacrosse offered an alternative.
