What does Commencement/graduation mean to you?

Graduation is a time of celebration. It means that all my hard work, self motivation from deep down inside, to my senior year tears have paid off. 

Did you have to overcome any difficult challenges during your education to make it to graduation? If so, what were they?

My biggest difficulty would be self motivation. 

What has your experience at NLU been like?

I have enjoyed my time at NLU and have met some of the nicest staff and educators. 

What are your plans for the future?

I say I want a break from schooling and focus on being a teacher but I want to go back for my Masters in Education.
