“I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Alanna, Chandra, Joshua, and Madison,” said Dr. Nicole Roades, President of Southern State Community College, “—four of our most outstanding students! On behalf of Southern State, we could not be more proud to have these fine individuals affiliated with our college. I am pleased to see them rewarded and honored for their academic commitment and personal discipline.” These top-performing students plan to transfer on to universities to complete their bachelor’s degree requirements or move directly into the workforce.
