WESLEY HARPER
I was a non-traditional student at Allegany College of Maryland
from the fall 2010 semester until the fall of 2013. My major
course of study was Human Services, and I was the first student
selected to the Pathways For Success program. The people
running this program are wonderful and will go out of their way
to help you succeed. Personally, I owe a great deal of my
success to Maggie, Debby, and Tara, but especially Maggie, who
tutored me in Math. Without her, I would not have graduated; so,
thank you! In December, I graduated with honors (Cum Laude),
and I was also selected to the National Who’s Who for Junior
Colleges. In addition, I was co-winner of the most outstanding
clinical student for the Human Service program. I am very
grateful to Cherie Snyder and Tim Rowan for allowing me to
participate in the program. Both Cherie and Tim kept me
grounded and focused on my goals.
I am currently training and orienting at Maryland Salem’s
Children’s Trust, where I hope to make a difference in some
child’s life in the near future. I would like to thank all of the
professors and staff at ACM for providing me with an excellent
educational base. Thanks to everyone, and I hope to see you all
very soon.
I would also like to thank all of my classmates in the Human
Service program. They were my support when things were
hectic. They were like my extended family.
