“This is one that personally hits home for me because this was a student that I did work with…He had a lot of personal things going on, was unhoused, was living on the street…and he even had to support his mother and younger siblings…But nevertheless, he had a dream to go to college, and he did attend college. And he attended my alma mater, for which I wrote the letter of recommendation. And he graduated last year… He is the first person in his family to graduate high school.”
