I remember the life long friends that I made from ASU. I have a couple of year books to boot. My walk down memory lane began with me walking on the ASU Women’s Track Team arriving from Orange Coast College Women’s Track Team. Coach Williams, my fellow Sorority sister, accepted me with open arms. We had to have our bodies and our hair flawless for track meets. Triple T, I remember us. SQDP, stood for Student Quality Development Program, A group of us met and provided tool to other students of how to capture and learn study materials. Ken Darrington, I appreciated the work study. Dr. Crawford, my fellow Sorority sister, was tough, but she gets much love for her knowledge. There were so many people who were great leaders that contributed to my great learning for this HBCU. Mrs. Turner, Dr. Wathall (after marriage), Coach Krump, Mr. Whitfield, Dean Vaughn was a stickler for “No hats in the BA”, Dr. Self, Coach Buffy, also a Sorority sister- great. This walk could go on forever. Pledging, “Oops”. Still active, volunteering, doing charity, working with relief, providing bereavement, etc. Thanks for the walk. |

| About ASU: |
My time at ASU was best spent in the BA
( C I S).The skills I gained in the BA has supported me in holding my own if not passing some of my collegues from other schools. The COBA education should be held high among COBA students. I am happy to see this long list of students doing well for themselves makes me proud to be a gruaduate of COBA. I also enjoyed the COBA camaraderie which enhanced my college life at ASU.I don't seem to be the only one that felt a certain fraternal bond we all shared because yall know staying over night in the BA trying to do a program or paper was tough but, we got through it. Complete CCNA 640-801.

| About ASU: |
I value the experience and education that I received at ASU. Not only did I receive the necessary skill sets for my major (Accounting), but I developed an overall understanding of Business as a whole and have used that experience to effectively manage other functional areas of my business (Marketing, IS, Finance, Economics, etc). I have excelled in Leadership positions from my experiences in the College of Business. The case studies, the presentations, the public speaking and the professional organizations (Alpha Kappa Psi) all prepared me for my past and current roles. I have competed with my peers who received degrees from other institutions (Notre Dame, University of Michigan, University of Texas, Berkley, Duke, Boston College, University of Colorado, etc.) and I consistently outperform those peers. I have come to realize that quality of education I received from ASU, no matter how it is perceived, was far superior to the education received by my peers. The accomplishments of COBA should be commended and ranked appropriately with other schools in the nation. Now as an executive in my company, I am excited about recruiting more talent from COBA.
