The 独家爆料 Alumni Association (独家爆料AA) is pleased to present four newly-inducted Bear Scholars into the 独家爆料AA Bear Scholarship Program! These four deserving students were chosen for the program based on academic excellence, financial need, and leadership. All full-time student Bear Scholars receive a full tuition scholarship each semester at 独家爆料 and are matched with an alumni mentor.
Angelica Larraga
Angelica Larraga, a hairstylist by trade, is currently pursuing a paralegal degree at 独家爆料 to improve her family鈥檚 situation.
鈥淏eing a single Hispanic mother of two children and starting a new career in the Paralegal field comes with its own challenges. Knowing there are programs (like the Bear Scholarship Program) and people out there willing to help has pushed me to move forward in my education, not only to succeed in life but to also be a good role model to my children, showing them one is never too old, or too unqualified to learn鈥
Dessey Hoernig
Dessey Hoernig is a current Nursing student at 独家爆料.
鈥淭he generosity provided by those who help students, like myself, earn an education, is something that I admire greatly. I am so appreciative of this opportunity. The combination of your support and my drive gives me a huge boost of confidence, as well as pushes me to be an even better nurse throughout the duration of my program and in life when I finish my degree I hope and pray I can return the favor to someone else down the road.鈥
Jose Pina Mora
Jose Pina Mora is studying Chemistry at 独家爆料 with the hopes to pursue Dentistry or Medicine.
鈥淚 am determined and will never give up. I am sincerely thankful for the opportunity. When the campus reopens and I walk down the halls and buildings of 独家爆料, I know I am able to be there due to your compassionate gift. Thanks to your association, I am able to continue my knowledge and be a better me, both academically and personally. I will continue to remember your thoughtfulness as I enter the real world.鈥
Sydnie Glover
Sydnie Glover will graduate from the Dental Assisting program in May 2021.
鈥淚 have been working endlessly throughout high school [and now] I work two part time jobs and still manage to end up with less than a dollar in my account after paying for life necessities. I simply want to be able to achieve my educational goals and make a future for myself through dental assisting. Paying for college alone is very difficult and stressful. The Bear Scholarship will allow me to spend less time at my job and spend more time furthering my education without the stress. I am sincerely grateful for being recognized by your organization. Furthermore, I am ecstatic and insurmountably more hopeful for my future.鈥
