For Gerald and Cindy Fyfe and their four sons, Lethbridge College is like a second home. When Gerald wanted to pursue further education in the late 1980s, he turned to the college. Cindy started taking courses not long after and says the college was a perfect fit for them because it offered what they needed in their own community.
There were a lot more night classes when she was a student, Cindy Fyfe recalls, and she found these to be convenient as she raised their family. Their sons Stephen, Darcy, Bryan and Daniel ended up attending the college for similar reasons.
“I guess you could say that Lethbridge College has become a family tradition,” she says. “With nine young grandchildren and more on the way, who knows how many Fyfes will ultimately graduate from Lethbridge College.”
