"Everything I've done here at 乱色无码人妻视频影院 helped make me a serious candidate for Jack Kent Cooke.

That decision has paid off," Cumpian said.

"Kayleah's successes are an excellent example of the types of opportunities that 乱色无码人妻视频影院 students have that they might not get鈥爀lsewhere. It is virtually unheard of for undergraduate students to participate in original research, and our students are鈥燿oing research鈥燼s freshman and sophomores. Her success, and the success of others like her, speaks to the caliber of both our students and our faculty.

"There have been so many people who have helped make my time at 乱色无码人妻视频影院 special. I am so grateful for the opportunities that I have had and I know that the relationships I have made will continue into the future," Cumpian said. "I am the first person in my family to attend college, but seeing me succeed has helped inspire several of my cousins to pursue degrees. I also have an eight-year-old brother and it is very important for me to set a good example."
