LAWTON, Okla_A Cameron grad
went back to school Friday, this time as an honored guest. 1995 graduate Brandy Peters
was a featured speaker at Friday's convocation, a ceremony held at the
beginning of each year to celebrate the university's dedication to academic
excellence.
"It is a chance
for us to recognize our honor students our scholarship recipients and let them
see each other and see the wide variety of academic excellence available on
this campus," Cameron Provost Dr. John MacArthur said.
Four Cameron
students were given the opportunity to share what the Aggie experience has
meant in their lives.
Duncan's Brandy Peters
was one of the four, she's already a Cameron grad and next year she will have
her Master's degree in educational leadership.
"Hopefully
one day become a principal, my aspiration is to actually teach at the college
level so maybe one of these days I'll be able to do that as well."
Brandy said Cameron
is not your typical college.
"Faculty
are so kind and caring, they're very committed to all of their students.
Everyone that I've encountered really takes the time to get to know you and
know your circumstances."
Getting more
than one degree from Cameron doesn't make Brandy as unique as you might think.
"We do
have a lot of repeat customers they have a good experience at Cameron get their
degree go on with their lives come back and realize more education would be
beneficial to next steps. We're pleased to have Brandy back, she did a great
job with us the first time through and she's going to do a great job again this
time," MacArthur said.
