Magna Cum Laude
Favorite Time at SCSU
My favorite part was the community. Whether it was connecting with professors who genuinely cared, study sessions with friends, or simply walking across campus between classes, there was always a sense of support and belonging. SCSU gave me more than an education; it gave me memories, confidence, and people who inspired me to keep growing.
What are you going to miss the most, and what are you looking forward to the most?
I’ll really miss the meaningful connections: talking with professors like Professor Anand, who supported and challenged me. I’ll miss spending time with my friend Q, who was a true constant through it all. I’m looking forward to what’s next: growing, creating new opportunities, and continuing on a path I know is leading somewhere great. The sky isn’t the limit, it’s just where I begin.
Advice to Incoming Students
Take your time finding your rhythm; everyone moves at their own pace, and that’s okay. Don’t be afraid to connect with your professors; they can become your biggest supporters. And even if you only make one real friend, that’s enough. Focus on growth, stay true to yourself, and trust that you belong here.
