Closing Reflections Entering the Online Educational Leadership Program at Arkansas State University at Jonesboro is one of the most preeminent decisions I have made in my life. Before I began this program, I had put off going back to school for a number of years. I have always made an excuse not to go, however I have always wanted to be in a leadership position.
