"Student Support Services has helped me in so many ways that I don't know where to begin. If I ever need to talk to someone, not only do I have Dr. Cobbs, my specialist, but also Dr. Burkett, and Mrs. Eason as well. They are like a home away from home; three mothers to supplement for my mother being two hundred miles away. I love being a part of SSS because it betters me as a person. I always felt I could teach myself without attending class, but due to SSS explaining the benefit of attending class, my grades have really improve. By attending class, I don't have to study as much anymore. SSS teaches me how to budget my finances and time a lot better. I've also received well-needed grants, as well as attended numerous activities through SSS. I love the program because I really feel a part of it. I have a voice. I get to share my ideas that I think will enhance the program for everyone. Overall Student Support Services is continuing to transform me into the responsible woman that I should be."

"I became involved in Student Support Services in 2007 and this organization has lived up to its title. I have been provided with financial support, academic help, and that place to go when I needed someone to talk to. The staff has 100% understanding for any situation and always has an open door policy for any student who needs to come in. Furthermore, Student Support Services have a series of events for student to participate in such as banquets. Also, Student Support Services sponsors students to go on various activities i.e., to the movies. There is nothing negative about the Student Support Services Program or the staff."

"My name is Courtney Johnson and I would like to say that Student Support Services has made my life much easier. I find it comforting to know that I have a counselor to meet with regularly who keeps me headed in a positive direction. It also allows me to voice my opinion in whether I need tutoring or any other type of assistance that they are generously providing. I hope to remain in the program until I receive my degree in Landscape Architecture."
