What are you going to miss the most, and what are you looking forward to the most?

I am going to miss meeting up with my friends and picking a place on campus to hang out. I’m also gonna miss all the fun events. I’m looking forward to a bright future and seeing others be successful

Advice to Incoming Students

Don’t be afraid to get out of your comfort zone! Before I got to SCSU, I had no idea how many amazing organizations there were on campus and how much they could prepare you for the future. I met my best friends, did amazing things, and learned so much through those organizations. I would also say try to go to every event you can and see what’s out there for you.

To My Fellow Graduates. We did it! We can get the hell outta here! I hope you all savored every moment here at SCSU and made as many memories as possible. I know I did.


Favorite Time at SCSU

All my time here at SCSU is my favorite. Winning Ms. Heritage 23, getting to be SISTAS President, being a FACE model, making content for the SCSU Instagram and TikTok, going to Culture Fest, Homecoming, EVERYTHING!

Advice to Incoming Students

My advice is, DON'T STAY IN YOUR ROOM! Go outside, join a club, go to an event, and make new friends. Southern is so much because there's always something to do. Just go out and find it, because if you don't you will regret not making any memories.

As we stand at the threshold of a new chapter, let's reflect on the shared experiences, the bonds we've formed, and the growth we've undergone. As we step into the world beyond these walls, may our paths be illuminated by the lessons learned and the friendships forged. Congratulations to us, fellow graduates, on this momentous achievement. Here's to the journey ahead.


Favorite Time at SCSU

Even in an online setting, my favorite part of my time at SCSU was the strong sense of community among my fellow online learners and instructors. Despite being physically apart, I still felt connected through our shared dedication to learning and mutual support. The flexibility of online classes allowed me to balance my studies with my other responsibilities, making the learning experience both convenient and rewarding.

What are you going to miss the most, and what are you looking forward to the most?

As a mother of four, I'll cherish the sense of accomplishment that comes with balancing my studies alongside my responsibilities at home. While I'll miss the camaraderie of classmates and the guidance of professors, I'm excited to apply the knowledge and skills I've gained to enriching my family's life and contributing to my community. The journey ahead is filled with endless possibilities, and I'm eager to embrace every moment of it.

Advice to Incoming Students

Embrace every opportunity to learn, grow, and connect. Stay curious, be open to new experiences, and don't be afraid to ask for help when needed. Remember that challenges are opportunities in disguise, and perseverance is key. Most importantly, cherish the journey and the people you meet along the way. Your time as a student is precious, so make the most of it!
