Testimonial

Meghan Clark

My professors pushed me into getting involved in SGA, which led to getting involved in different clubs around the school and creating events that hold onto my beliefs and values. I also credit the Communication Club/program that gave me the family and support system that made me want to get out of bed every morning and come to class. If it wasn't for them, I would not have made as much of an impact here at Atlantic Cape.
