Graduate Success Stories
“I immediately knew Hodges was the perfect place to balance my unique life and education. I found accommodating schedules, small classrooms, a dynamic curriculum, and a supportive administration. I was impressed how a small institution could offer everything I needed. The biggest challenge was finding a balance between being a full-time parent, full-time employee and being able to add a full-time academic agenda. However, the most rewarding part was befriending many students whose lives mirrored mine. They, too, had a full agenda, and they, too, had the same challenges; this became my source of strength and ultimately my support system,” Amelia Vasquez – Business Administration Three-Time Graduate
