Aunetria Arnold, RRT

Lemme tell you about MY nene. As one of our first generation college students, she wanted to show her baby sisters how to reach goals you set for yourself.

And she did!

Nene was my “napper”, working late night shifts and always nodding off. I would say NeeNee and she would open those eyes and repeat exactly what I had just taught that I “thought” she had slept thru. She was also chosen to receive the clinical award for her class which tells you she is a hard worker and a great therapist.

We are so proud of you and see you for all this means for you and for your family. Rest on a regular schedule now and go show out!!

Congrats !

4,000+ Enrollment ✅
Largest Graduating Class ✅
Leading the state in enrollment ✅

Students across West Tennessee are continuing to purse their education to achieve their dream careers. That choice has translated to the largest graduating class in our history and enrollment increases that lead the state.

“These numbers are the culmination of hard work by the team here at Jackson State,” said Dr. Carol A. Rothstein, President of JSCC. “From the smiling faces in the classroom to those helping make our campus such a great place to learn, our faculty and staff go to great lengths to see our students succeed, and these numbers continue to reinforce those efforts. We’re changing the lives of our neighbors to better our community, and that’s something I think we can all get behind.”
