Sport Management

To my fellow graduates: no matter how different our journeys looked, we all made it here! Be proud of yourself for every setback you pushed through to reach this moment. Four years ago, we had no idea where life would take us, and now we leave Southern stronger, wiser, and ready for whatever comes next. Go Owls 💙🦉


Favorite Time at SCSU

My favorite part of my time at SCSU was the people and memories that made Southern feel like home. From being part of FLEX from my very first day on campus, to late nights laughing in West Campus with my friends, to the energy and school pride at every Homecoming game, some of my best college memories were made here.

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

I already miss the sense of community that came with living on campus. Some of my favorite memories were the late nights spent laughing with friends, having deep conversations, and always being surrounded by people who supported each other through everything. What I’m looking forward to most is continuing my career in the sports industry. Southern’s Sport Management program gave me incredible opportunities, connections, and guidance that helped me land my dream role with the Hartford Yard Goats as a Marketing and Promotions Associate and Social Media Manager. I’m excited to see where this next chapter takes me!

Advice to Incoming Students

GET INVOLVED. Seriously, take advantage of everything Southern has to offer. Join FLEX, participate in leadership programs, go to the events your residence hall hosts, and say yes to new opportunities even when they feel outside your comfort zone. Some of the best parts of my college experience came from simply showing up, and that’s where I met some of the most amazing people who became lifelong friends.
