I don't want to focus on my year in this post, you can check out A Year in Review for that. I want to focus on the individuals who made my year special by accomplishing what I'm gearing up to achieve in a few months, graduating.

My tenure at The University of Alabama has been phenomenal. There is very little I can say I haven't done as a student. Most importantly, I'll be the first male in three generations to finish college.

College isn't a privilege. It isn't a given right. I have a lot of friends whose family members all went to college. To them, attending an institution is another inevitable step in life. They rarely realize for the majority of individuals, college is a limited secondary option. For the most underprivileged, it is only a dream.

I am blessed to say I had options. I had five or six schools offering full scholarships. I ended up choosing to go to Alabama to stay near my family. I didn't want to be too far from my younger siblings. I have some misgivings about my school, but I know I made the right choice. I wouldn't have stayed here for nearly four years if I didn't.

I know a lot of people who attended UA and didn't come back after the first semester. I know a lot of people who attended UA then transferred to another school. I know even more who couldn't handle the amount of money required to attend college and couldn't finish.
Charlsa Mitchell
I'm just happy to be where I am. I don't take my blessings for granted. There are so many people who wish they were in my position.
