“I met so many amazing people as peers and professors that helped me to see myself through a different lens. College to career navigation challenged me to think differently and helped bring my deeper aspirations to the surface. I could leave so many influential names here that made my time at Jackson State such an incredible experience, but Karen Perrin, Emily Fortner, and Tommy Cepparulo encouraged and challenged me to bring my best self to class every day, and I did my best to deliver.”
William M. - Class of 2025
“My time at JSCC helped me blossom both academically and personally. I always received genuine support from all my professors and other JSCC staff. My criminal justice professor and advisor, Karen Perrin, made a special impact on me due to her intelligence, commitment, and leadership qualities.”
Donna K. - Class of 2018
“The respiratory therapy program was very hard and I had many times where I doubted my abilities as a student, but I had many peers and professors telling me to keep going and when I finally reached my end goal and became a registered therapist I was more than thankful for the experience I was able to have. To this day I still ask myself “what would Christie and Herb do” and it never fails to boost my confidence!”
