As Quansheeba Kennedy reviews her DCC
transcript in preparation to transfer to Salem College, she can hardly believe
she has a 3.3 g.p.a and that she was accepted into the prestigious private college
with a selective admission policy.
If took 2 false starts before the
22-year-old Thomasville resident found her true calling, elementary education,
and more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She
thought back to when she was only 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life.”
She had just graduated from high school when she was in a serious car accident.
“I almost killed myself, not by
drinking and driving, not by partying, but because I was living a life that was
overwhelming,” she said. One must work hard, but not waste time. Goofing off
during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for outstanding
success now and later.
