Time for our throwback Thursday photo. We celebrate a state championship with Cameron Magee from 2012.

Get Real was held in the gym at the former UW-Richland campus on Thursday, March 19. Twenty-six Ithaca students from the Careers and Personal Finance classes attended the event, where they practiced making real-life financial decisions.
Before the event, students chose a career and researched both the average salary and the required education for that field. They were randomly assigned a credit score, marital status, and number of dependents. Volunteers then guided the students through decisions regarding housing, vehicles, insurance, banking, groceries, utilities, and even leisure activities.
Students practiced writing checks and balancing their registers. While some discovered the need for a second job to make ends meet, others realized how much their choices regarding housing or pets impacted their bottom line.
A few even received "Speeding Tickets" or "Crime Stopper Awards" from local law enforcement! It was a wonderful learning experience, and we sincerely appreciate the volunteers who made this event both fun and educational.
