Student Support Services has announced Sherry Fowler as student of the month for March 2015. Sherry was chosen because she manages to be an honor student despite having to face many challenges. She is a sophomore at RMCC, working part-time, raising her granddaughter, and dealing with health issues, yet she finds time to assist her classmates. Sherry says, “I started RMCC in the spring semester of 2013 because I wanted to take a few classes in order to help my granddaughter with her lessons. I was a bit overwhelmed since I was fifty years old and had been out of school for a long time. With the encouragement of my advisor and teachers, plus all of the help from the SSS labs and the student tutor, I have been able to keep up with my lessons and grades. I am unsure at the moment what path I will take after graduation in May, but I know I will miss being at RMCC. Hopefully, I will be able to take a few follow-up courses.”
