Most people think getting a PhD means putting your life on hold.

Alexa Hetzel decided to do it differently. 🎓

At 28, Alexa lives in Las Vegas, teaches public speaking at UNLV, works part-time for a PR firm, has a husband and a dog and is pursuing her PhD in Journalism and Strategic Media at the University of Memphis through UofM Global.

She originally planned to work in broadcast journalism. But while earning her master’s at UNLV, she discovered something she didn’t expect:

She loved teaching.

Now, Alexa hopes to become a professor and make an impact in the classroom.

Moving across the country for a PhD wasn’t an option, so she found another way forward.

Through UofM Global, Alexa can pursue her degree while continuing to live, work and teach in Nevada.

Her advice to other students?

💬 “Go at your own pace.”

There’s no one right timeline for education. Sometimes the best path is the one that fits the life you’ve already built.

Welcome to the University of Memphis, Alexa!

We’re glad you’re here. Online. On your time.💙

Congratulations to Toni Robison, University of Memphis Class of 2026! 🎓💙

After seeing family members and others in her community struggle with mental health, Toni knew she wanted to make a difference.

She saw firsthand how misunderstood mental illness can be, and how many people face those challenges without enough support or advocacy.

That passion led her to study psychology, even when the journey wasn’t easy.

Between working, caregiving, and managing her own health challenges, returning to school seemed out of reach for years.

Everything changed when she found UofM Global.

The flexibility of online learning allowed her to balance school with real-life responsibilities and finally pursue the future she envisioned.

One class that especially impacted her was Abnormal Psychology, which deepened her understanding of mental health and strengthened her passion for advocacy. A research paper on mental health stigma across cultures became a defining moment in shaping her goals.

Throughout her journey to graduation, Philippians 4:13 served as a daily reminder of her strength and faith: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

Now, at 50 years old, Toni is graduating and preparing for her next chapter...helping others through a career in the mental health field.

Her advice to others:

“Don’t count yourself out. You’re capable of more than you think.”

Congratulations, Toni!

Your perseverance, compassion, and dedication are truly inspiring.

🎓✨ Congratulations to Teresa Gervis, University of Memphis Class of 2026!

There are moments in life when finishing a degree can feel like something that’s just no longer possible.

Years away from school.
Busy careers.
Health challenges.
Life simply moving forward.

For many adults, going back to college can feel completely out of reach.

That was exactly where Teresa found herself...more than 30 years away from the classroom and unsure if returning was even realistic.

Then a single social media post led her to something unexpected: the University of Memphis Finish Line program.

Still uncertain, she reached out just to learn more.

What happened next changed everything.

After reviewing her transcripts, her advisor discovered something remarkable.

Teresa was much closer to graduation than she ever imagined.

Suddenly, what once felt impossible became achievable. 🎓

With the support of UofM Global,she was able to complete her degree fully online, a must while managing Rheumatoid Arthritis and osteoarthritis.

Studying from home meant she could keep going without the physical strain of returning to a traditional campus.

💡 What made the difference:
• Fully online classes that fit into real life
• Regular check-ins and encouragement through Microsoft Teams
• Faculty who gave thoughtful feedback and helped rebuild confidence

One of her biggest hurdles? Returning to academic writing after 33 years of mostly corporate emails.

But with steady guidance and encouragement, her confidence grew with every assignment.

💬 Her advice to anyone wondering if it’s “too late”:

“Contact the Finish Line program and let them review your transcript. You may be surprised at how little it takes to finish, and how much easier the process can be than you think.”

Congratulations, Teresa! 🎉

Your story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to finish what you started.
