Real Stories - Emma Fonke in her graduation garb, holding a CSM student maceThis week, HawkTalk features Emma Fonke ’25, student speaker for the School of STEM and Professional Studies:

"CSM didn’t just prepare me and my classmates academically; it has prepared us as people. We learned how to be independent, how to persevere, how to ask for help, and how to lift others up along the way. We became more than just students. We became leaders, thinkers, creators, and friends.”
