Eddie Taylor, CEO for the United Way of Northern Santa Barbara County, weighed in on the Laurus College announcement, “It’s not a secret that people living in this area have limited options for pursuing higher education in their own communities.  We are anticipating a very positive impact from the Laurus College new Bachelor’s degree offerings, and are looking forward to seeing more of these kinds of opportunities develop down the road.”
