Graduation statement:
” It is never too late to begin again! Age is just the year you began your journey. Now at age 55 I have reached a goal I strived and faught hard to accomplish.
Obtaining higher education is very important to me and with dedication, perseverance and determination I am on my way to higher heights. I give special thanks to my family and friends for all the love, support and encouragement to keeping going. I’d also like to thank the SWIC staff, program
coordinator and fellow students for believing in my dream with me and helping me to see it come true. Most of all I thank God for the FAITH – Foundation Accepted In Time & Heart to trust and believe the process. To all the graduates I say congratulations and keep moving forward to the next level. To Instructor, Carolyn Beal and Dean, Dr. Mary Ruettgers, thank you so much for the opportunity to
better myself as an Early Childhood Professional working in a Home-based Early Childhood Program. I am forever grateful. In moving forward, I say no matter where you are in your life’s journey you can always begin again. GRADUATION means Gradually Reaching After Dreams Using Affirmative Tools Indicative Of Negotiation. I now claim the Victory! Thank you.” – Duncan

Graduate statement:
“First and foremost I want to thank God for giving me the strength to finish this long journey. I want to thank my amazing husband, Jimmy Prather for giving me the push I needed, after being out of school for so long. My beautiful children Ayinde, Ashlyn and Jimaya (I wanted to be their greatest example of no matter the obstacle and what goes on in life to NEVER GIVE UP!)
I appreciate my parents, Jerry & Ruby Garrett for pushing the importance of having an education. Liberty Christian Church in Alton, IL, thank you for your prayers!
Last, but certainly not least, every Professor that pulled me through this degree, my hat is off to you! It wasn’t easy, in most cases, being the ONLY female and the ONLY African American in a male predominate field of construction, but I MADE IT!
And because of SWIC, I’ve landed a job with one of the top engineering companies in St. Louis! I love you all and be blessed!“
