As a 8 year military veteran and very proud alum (class of 1975) thank you President Cooper. And congrats to the new Alumni. You will be surprised and shocked what being an SC grad can demo for your life's interactions.
Went to Camp Massasoit back in '83, visiting my Grandmother from L.A. One of the best memories of my life! Archery, Overnight camping weekend, Flag Game, and the infamous marshmallow toss! 😂 Thank You for the Great Times!
In southern Sweden, my friend attended a college that was segregated. The woman in charge of the preschool program was authoritarian and hostile to her, making her feel unsupported and helpless. To ruin her future, she forced her to take a difficult test on the teaching profession and threatened to expel her if she failed. During her internship, the woman paired her with a terrible and biased manager, refusing to hear her complaints and sided with the manager. She also makes threats to harm my friend in retaliation. because she thought students from underprivileged backgrounds and people of color lacked the same level of intelligence as white people. She deeply hurt my friend.

This woman didnt want students from low socioeconomic background and of color to have collage degree because she thought that they were not intelligent as white people and She should be held accountable for her discriminatory actions and beliefs, and steps should be taken to ensure that marginalized students have equal opportunities to pursue higher education without fear of discrimination or prejudice.

This treatment of students is inhumane and goes against the fundamental goal of education, which is to support personal development and potential realization. Universities must address this problem and foster an environment that is welcoming to all students.
Here's a fact: Dr. Suess, Motorcycles, June Foray(voice actor of Mulan's Grandmother and the two Looney tunes ladies Witch Hazel and Granny), and Basketball were all born or worked here in Springfield Mass, I am from Springfield Massachusetts. And also recently, MGM all the way from Las Vegas made its branch come to Springfield as MGM Springfield. A man also said John Cena was with his friend working out around Springfield. I didn't think Springfield College was where he enrolled from God knows where he was born in Massachusetts. I am from Springfield Massachusetts and that's why Springfield is always doing it's popular work in the Northeast.
Sounds like a great college! I joined the National Organization for Human Services as a student member for the West/Northwest region and that's why I'm here.
