___I nominate Karrie Clark for this award. Not long after our program started, she gave birth to a sweet baby. While raising her baby and her older child, she also worked full-time and put full efforts into school. If anyone understands balance, it is
Karrie.
Of all my classmates, I would say that Curtis Sanders best fits the definition of academic excellence. He has already mapped out the next step to his education at the beginning of our program. He has well established goals and the drive to achieve his dreams. _
