"My College Experience"

Karen Ward

• Degree/Major: BS Health Education
• Minor: Education
• Graduate Schools/Degrees: Add on degree from UTK in Exceptional Education, Gifted Endorsement from MTSU
• Extracurricular Activities: Greek - Phi Mu Fraternity (sorority), Tau Kappa Epsilon Little Sister
• Favorite college memories: Met my husband there. Favorite class/professor and why: Health Education classes, Dr. Bell and Dr. Miller; great advisors and told us exactly how it will be in the real world. Dr. Miller told us it would be pure hell some morning to stand up in front of those shiny little faces and he was right.
  What do you know now that you wish you had known then: That I could have studied more and not been as social.
  Best piece of advice for our current SDHS seniors: Go to class and don't be afraid to ask for help! Never quit on a bad day!
