He chose Middle Georgia State University because … “One reason was all of the positive experiences that many friends have shared with me about their time spent on campus. Another reason was due to the size of the campus and the welcoming environment. Everyone was very patient and understanding of me as I was attempting to navigate the admissions process as an older, non-traditional student.”
The greatest thing he discovered about Middle Georgia State was … “The willingness of all of the advisors and professors to ensure my academic success. My experiences with all of my advisors and professors have been excellent. I am inquisitive by nature and ask questions to gain knowledge from them. The knowledge that they share often goes beyond textbook answers. They share relevant, real-life perspectives that will further enhance my understanding as I progress through my academic and professional career.”
His greatest academic experience as a Middle Georgia State student has been … “The relationships that I have developed with my classmates. I have found that It is important to learn to network others in any setting, even in the classroom setting. The relationships that I have made thus far at Middle Georgia State will last a lifetime, I am sure.”
To him, greatness means … “Many things, but most importantly to me greatness means to become proficient in anything that you are desiring to accomplish. It is my goal to become proficient academically, professionally, and personally to be able to make a lasting impact in the lives of people I encounter.”
In five years … “I would like to continue to work with at-risk youth in a counseling capacity. I would like work within a school system as a social worker, as well as working with youth and their families in my local community to help give them the skills and tools to help to reach their goals in life.”
