Tiffany Williams – 2017 That was the challenge wrapped in encouragement given to Tiffany Williams, ASU Mid-South’s 2017 Academic All-Star, by her two college-aged daughters when she expressed doubts about returning to school. “It was very scary. Just walking in to register was hard and the first week of classes, I was terrified. But the first ice-breaker for me was when I saw my daughter in the hall during that first week. I didn’t want her to be embarrassed that she was going to college with her mother. So I was going to turn and go a different way. But she yelled ‘Hey, Mom. Come meet my friends!’ |
