Real Students. Real Stories.
This week, hear from Rhey Mesowski, an alum and current student pursuing her mathematics and sciences degree:
"Family is the most important thing in my life, second is education. Dr. McCaslin once told me, 'You are setting a good example for your child and your future children.' That keeps me going, that my child will know that whatever his goals are, if mom and dad can do anything, he too, can do anything."
