Ferguson earned an associate degree at Boise State before returning after his active duty to earn the online Bachelor of Business Administrationin Management, which is paying dividends in his career.

“I am dropping off a packet for officer candidate school,” he said. “Long-term, I plan to do something in the embroidery business or do something in operational management. I absolutely think having this degree will open up opportunities for me.

“I got good value out of the online Bachelor of Business Administration program at Boise State. I had another good experience there.”
