Comments:
I really appreciate McNair for all it has done to me. It has made me realize the potential I have to be a strong voice in a world that doesn't want me to be. Thanks for all the networking, research opportunities, and counseling sessions (smile Karima). To the current and future scholars:It's not amazing that you were intelligent enough to be in the program, whats amazing is you ability to comprehend why you NEED a PhD and that by YOU attaining one, change will happen, and for the better. LOVE YOU ALL-TIANNA
