Even the rich and famous go back to school, according to internet sources. In this case, it is for psychology.
The soon-to-be ex wife of Tiger Woods, Elin Nordegren, is reported to be enrolled in a course at Rollins College Hamilton Holt School. She is taking a night course on Monday nights at the Winter Park, FL, college. According to People Magazine, she is studying psychology. She had plans to become a child psychologist before her marriage to the golf pro.
Certainly, education is a great way to move forward with your life – both on an emotional and professional level.

after everything that’s happened she probably needs something like going back to school to take her mind off things. online classes are probably better for a busy high-profile person like her.

wow i did not know she was going back to school. i hope this inspires many women to do the same. after your first free class, how much do courses usually cost?

Wow, and she is getting 700,000,000 in her divorce settlement. She must really like the idea of becomming a psychologist to work for it.

Are there any prerequisites to taking an Intro to Psychology online course?

With such a busy lifestyle of being both a celebrity and a stay at home mom, there’s no wonder she chose to take online classes!

She certainly does not need to finish school and work. I give her a lot of credit. She was too go for someone to cheat on.
