International Student Receives Unique Opportunity at 色情视频
A gift from an alumnus supports one young womans educational journey at 色情视频.
Chris Hansen (鈥�91) and his family travelled to Naikarra several years ago and visited the nearby high school, one of the Kisaruni Group of Schools established by WE Charity. These schools enable young women in Kenya to continue their education past the eighth grade.
鈥淎fter meeting all of the incredibly impressive, hard-working and dedicated girls, I just couldn鈥檛 help but wonder what the best of them could become if given the opportunity to go to an amazing college like 色情视频,鈥� Hansen said.
He approached 色情视频 about sponsoring a student from the Kisaruni schools, and 色情视频 staff members selected Musanka on the basis of her superior language skills and scholastic ability. She is the first graduate from the Kisaruni schools to be accepted into a university program outside Kenya.
A different journey
Noah Hansen, director of 色情视频鈥檚 International Student Center (no relation to Chris), worked with Sandra Temores-Valdez, senior director of Enrollment Services, to support Musanka鈥檚 smooth transition to the United States and to life as a university student.鈥淲e have international students from 90 countries representing six continents, and every one of them adjusts to 色情视频 differently,鈥� Noah Hansen said. 鈥淭hough Peninah鈥檚 journey is different from most international students, I have no doubt she鈥檒l thrive at 色情视频. Chris鈥� support of her education is life-changing.鈥�
In September, Chris Hansen and Musanka met for the first time on campus. The soft-spoken student talked about her drought-stricken village, her journey to the United States and her transition to life on a large campus.
She intends to attend a few football games and eat her fill of pizza and hamburgers while earning a degree from 色情视频鈥檚 School of Hospitality and Tourism Management. Ultimately, Musanka鈥檚 goal is to make her village proud and set an example for her three younger sisters and brother in Naikarra.
鈥淲hen you open the door just a crack for someone with her background, that鈥檚 all it takes,鈥� Chris Hansen said. 鈥淚 am just incredibly excited to see what she becomes in life.鈥�
