How would you describe your WSSU experience?

Amazingly interesting. From the people that I’ve met to the different experiences that I’ve had to the situations that I’ve been in and witnessed. But I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything.

 

What were some of your favorite parts of your college experience?

Connecting with like minded individuals, meeting new types of people, gaining life long friends, and unforgettable experiences.

 

Have you engaged in internships, research projects, study abroad, student leadership, community outreach, or other experiences that are enhancing your time at WSSU?

I participated in research during my first two years and summers at WSSU and then I had an internship Nationwide during my third summer. I also experienced student leadership and community outreach through Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. as I was Chapter President for an organization known for its service.

 

Did you face any obstacles while pursuing your degree?

The biggest obstacle was definitely speaking to people. I’ve never been the most outgoing person, and I’m still not, but I have come so far from when I first arrived at Winston.

 

What are your plans after graduation?

I’m honestly still trying to decide this myself. I’ve had a lot of good opportunities present themselves to me but what I’m leaning more towards right now is attending graduate school at A&T where I’ve been accepted into the Masters and PhD programs for Computer Science.

 

Are there any particular faculty, coaches, mentors, or staff that made a difference in your life?

I’ve had a lot who have definitely impacted me whether they know it or not. Of course my department chair, Dr. Elva Jones. The first professor I connected with and fraternity brother, Dr. Frederick Roundtree. My research mentor, Dr. Mustafa Atay. One of my favorite professors, someone I can always come talk to, and sor

In 2014 a handful of companies in Boulder thought, “wouldn’t it be cool if the whole town celebrated Computer Science Education Week and Hour of Code?”

 

And so they did just that! There was a week long, town-wide celebration of technology, innovation, and computer science educational fun for parents, kids, and teachers.

 

Programs were open to kids as young as 4 and as old as high school. Apps were made, robots were built, Scratch was learned, and a lot of families exclaimed that this kind of learning disguised as festive fun was just what they needed to help their kids explore CSED.
