Suma Cum Laude

I have enjoyed every moment of my time at Southern. Classmates have become lifelong friends, and I would not have it any other way. Congratulations to all of the class of 2025, and may the best be in store for us in our future! Go OWLS!


Favorite Time at SCSU

Creating memories with my friends both inside and outside of the classroom! I have friendships that are international now all because of Southern, and that started sitting next to one another in class.

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

I am going to miss the people that I started my college career the most. Being an undergraduate student had its blessings, but I am looking forward to coming back as a graduate student in the fall!

Advice to Incoming Students

I would say to shoot for the stars. Take every opportunity, ask for new ones, push your boundaries because no one is going to do it for you. This is the time to start the path of your success, so do the things you thought you would never do because it may just turn out to be the thing that rewards you in the future.
