Tarleton named among Texas best online colleges, universities
Stephenville Empire-Tribune
Tarleton State University has been named among Texas best online colleges and universities by www.edsmart.org. Online colleges in Texas offer different incentives, such as free textbooks for undergraduates or special tuition rates for active military and veterans, to ensure students have every opportunity to succeed, according to information posted on edsmart.org. The same faculty that teach on-campus often teach their subject’s online course as well, which means the virtual courses are just as comprehensive as they are accessible.

As we pass eleven months of a worldwide pandemic, perhaps you’re in a similar boat. Maybe you’ve been furloughed or laid off, and there’s this thing on your calendar staring a hole through your soul: Christmas! The day we celebrate God giving us our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Photo history and our professional training have taught us the key elements of making a great photo: lighting, timing and touch. We also have learned that the goal is to spend so much time with a subject that our presence is forgotten.
