SCC Student of the Week Kirsten Sexton-Royer.

To honor some of our most tenacious students, our Student Recognition Retention Action Team has started a “Student of the Week” award.

Faculty members nominate students based on their tenacity, and the team selects one per week.

Congratulations to Kirsten Sexton-Royer, who's been named our "Student of the Week!"

Name: Kirsten Sexton-Royer
Program: Art and Psychology
Graduation: Fall 2019

What motivates you to continue and excel at SCC in spite of circumstances you may face?
My motivation is knowing the feeling of what its like being at rock bottom. And I don’t want to go back.

What advice would you give to future students who might face similar situations?
Advice would be even when life feels hard, it isn’t. It's still soft.  School is how you make it.  I take seven classes this semester and still work and have a social life.  Just smile and laugh. One can not succeed if they can not laugh.
