“The more that I learn, the better I’ll become as a person. That simple fact keeps me going.”

“Partially it’s my parents motivating me, but it’s also that I look forward to different careers and opportunities. I want to continue my education, so I can reach those opportunities. Without education, I won’t be able to.”

“My parents. Also, thinking about my future and how I will support my family.”

 

Umar Muhammad

“I came back to school just before the pandemic. For me, just knowing I can (get my associates) and pushing through to get it done. It’s been challenging but I want to prove to myself I can do it.”

“Looking forward to the future and having something I can do later on.”
