Palin Education
|
• In the fall of 1982, Sarah Palin attended Hawaii Pacific University in Honolulu but by the end of the freshman year she transferred out to North Idaho College, Coeur d'Alene in the spring of 1983
• According to a biography titled 'Sarah' by Kaylene Johnson, "Palin and three friends went to the University of Hawaii at Hilo after graduation from high school in Alaska in 1982. But they left after a few weeks because of the constant rain there."
• In the fall of 1984, she turned to University of Idaho in Moscow, leaving it for Matanuska-Susitna Community College in Palmer, Alaska during the fall of 1985. She later returned to the University of Idaho in 1986 where she received her Bachelor's degree in communications with an emphasis in journalism in 1987.
• Palin once said that her curiosity and love of writing made journalism a natural choice. "I was always asking everyone the questions, and I still am today."
• The Alumni Association of North Idaho College recently conferred upon her the Distinguished Alumni Achievement Award in June 2008.
• In an effort to finance her way through college, Palin entered beauty competitions in her early twenties, aiming for the Miss America title. She was titled Miss Wasilla in 1984 and finished third in the Miss Alaska pageant, winning the "Miss Congeniality" award and a college scholarship.
• In tune with her ambition to be a sport commentator and television presenter, soon after graduation Palin worked as a sportscaster for KTUU-TV in Anchorage and as sports reporter for the Mat-Su Valley Frontiersman.
