Bryana Henley

1.      Give a brief introduction of yourself:

My name is Bryana Henley. I am twenty two years old. I am a mother of two, and I am in my fourth semester here at ÐÓ°ÉPro.

2.      What attracted you to ÐÓ°ÉPro?

I was attracted to ÐÓ°ÉPro because of how affordable it was, and because it was local.

3.      What do you study at ÐÓ°ÉPro? When will you graduate?

I am getting my Associates of Science, and I will graduate in May 2020. 

4.      If you had to choose, what is your best experience at ÐÓ°ÉPro?

My best experience was being able to experience the different classroom settings and meeting new people. My favorite subject was definitely Biology with Professor Martinez. She is a great professor. 

5.      Do you consider that your experience at ÐÓ°ÉPro has enhanced your abilities and qualities on a personal and professional level?

Yes, definitely. Every class has shaped me and helped me to become the person I am today.

6.      Will you continue your education after graduating from ÐÓ°ÉPro? If yes, where?

I do plan on continuing my education. I hope to transfer to Texas Tech University, where I want to major in Plant and Soil Science. I wanted to go into a Horticultural program, and I plan to eventually go on and get my masters in Botany. [With that type of degree,] I will be able to work at a Botanical Garden or open my own vineyard. There are a lot of things I could do with a degree in Botany.

7.      Did you find it easy to make friends on campus at ÐÓ°ÉPro?

Making friends was very easy for me. I met a lot of great people and they vary in ages. There were so many students from different countries and people with all different personalities. 

8.      What would you tell a student that is considering ÐÓ°ÉPro, or your specific program of study, as an option?

I would tell them about the experiences I’ve had while attending, about the classroom atmosphere, how it is always welcoming and fun. The professors were always helpful when I was having trouble. When I needed guidance on my degree plan, the academic advisors were very helpful. The individual tutoring and all of the other resources that ÐÓ°ÉPro provides are pretty cool, too.

9.      Is there any advice you wish someone would have given you when beginning your education at ÐÓ°ÉPro?

I think one piece of advice would be not to hesitate to reach out for help. ÐÓ°ÉPro provides many tools and services to help students while they are attending and the professors are always willing to help when it comes to the student’s individual needs.
