"PSC helped me build my confidence; the leader I am now can be traced back to the
student experience I had at Prairie State College. Serving as the president of the
Student Government Association, president of the Sustainability Club, and vice president
of the All-Latin Association, expedited my professional and leadership skills."

"Being at community college, I understand what it feels like when a professor cares
about me. When I transfer out, I will quickly be able to identify if a professor looks
at me like a number or a student."

"I'm in the Latin Alliance Club. I've met a lot of people who I can relate to in the
club and I know I'm going to be friends with the people in there for a long time.
Go for it. Don’t be scared. It has a bit of a negative connotation because you’re
not going straight to a four-year (institution). Once you’re here you realize it's
a more intimate community and you really get to know people."
