From Greenville Tech to Furman and beyond

When Jessie Stanion left high school in California, she I did not expect to attend college. However, at age 23, living in Greenville, she decided to take night classes at Greenville Technical College. That decision ultimately led her to finish her studies at Greenville Tech and transfer to Furman, where she received the Alden Transfer Scholarship and graduated in 2014 with a degree in neuroscience. Stanion’s educational journey was aided greatly by Furman psychology professors Frank Provenzano and Onarae Rice, and she wrote about that journey in an op-ed for The Greenville News.
