b'We\'re talking education this morning because I believe a quality education opens a world of opportunity, possibility and life sustaining careers.

First update - I\'m on week two of training for the AACR Philadelphia Marathon Weekend. I\'m running the 8k and why? because the American Association for Cancer research is responsible for supporting some of the biggest breakthroughs in cancer treatment. I have people I love in my life that are either in treatment, recovery or remission from cancer - so I feel some passion about supporting the AACR. You can do it too. go to www.aacr.org/runners for research and thank you.

I\\u2019ll be talking about a program that gives nontraditional students a life changing opportunity to get a college education by meeting them where they live. The program is also offering programs designed to support the higher education goals of young people who\\u2019ve aged out of the foster care system. I chat with David Castro, President and CEO, I-LEAD, Inc. (Institute for Leadership Education)
