What is your best memory of WSSU?
My best memory of WSSU would be Homecoming! All the support, love and positive energy from alumni, students, faculty and staff is amazing! Seeing thousands of people coming together, bring their kids and relatives to brag about how awesome WSSU is priceless. To celebrate this wonderful institution through donations, attendance at athletic events as well as fellowshipping on the yard is phenomenal!
What do you love about WSSU?
The one thing I love about WSSU is the family oriented vibe I receive from not only the faculty and staff, but also from the students? There is not a moment that goes by each and every day where I do not see the genuine vibe and care our students have for one another. Wither it is student leaders encouraging other students to get more involved with student activities or students coming together to walk to the football or basketball games to support athletics or senate meetings, together we act as one.
What do you plan on doing after you graduate?
My plans after graduation are to further my education to receive my masters in the field of education. With this goal I plan to teach at a Title 1 school in the Forsyth County region to help leave a legacy in the community of Winston Salem and embrace my love and the importance of my HBCU.
How has WSSU prepared you for the future?
Being that WSSU is a Liberal Arts Institution is has prepared me with the knowledge and skill set in different content areas where I will be able to use that background knowledge and the fundamental skill set to adapt to any job I come across in the future in life.
How has WSSU made a difference in your life?
WSSU has made a huge difference in my life. Getting involved in different organizations such as Greek Life, Housing and Resident Life and Student Government Association has taught me to believe in myself. Getting involved in campus life has developed my communication and social skills. It has taught me how important your personal brand is and taught me the importance of networking and getting out of my comfort zone. If I did not have individuals at this this institution to push and help motivate me, I would have never revealed my full potential. And for that I am proud to be an alum of the Winston Salem State University!

Kimberly Bryant and her daughter, Kai Bryant on the TEDxSanFrancisco 2019 stage.
"Between 2007 and 2013, a 13% decrease in black women in the STEM field. The scarcity of black women in tech begins long before career. Less than 1/3 of Computer Science degrees go to black women. [...] Even today, I'm thankful for mentors. Still experience failures, just like every other leader, and they can hit to the core, but I've learned that when these failures are encountered, you need to get up and challenge the tribe to provide a soft space to land, gather self, and move forward again."
After spending more than two decades in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries as an engineering manager at various Fortune 100 companies, Kimberly Bryant started Black Girls CODE to introduce young women of color to the field of technology and computer programming with a concentration on entrepreneurial concepts. Her non-profit aims to train 1 million young women to code by 2040. In 2013, Bryant was honored by the White House for her work in tech inclusion and her focus on bridging the digital divide for girls.
