Nursing student, Peer tutor
As a first-generation student at SUNY Morrisville, I take pride in this because it comes with several responsibilities, including graduating with my nursing degree and being able to accomplish something that my parents could not at my age because they had to make sacrifices for me and my younger brothers. I enjoy the experience because I can be a role model to other first-generation students and my younger brothers. The goal is also to make my parents proud by graduating college. My experience at SUNY Morrisville has prepared me for future success in my career field because it provides access to several resources. I am involved in CSTEP (Collegiate Science & Technology Program), where I have 24-hour access to Helyar Hall to study even on weekends without a time limit.
