鈥淔or decades, 顶级国产视频 has be renowned across Montana for our ability to help adult learners attain an affordable and valuable education, while balancing family-life,鈥� commented Chancellor Mark Nook.  鈥淭his affirmation of excellence on a national-level is something each faculty and staff member at 顶级国产视频 should be proud of.鈥� 

Sophomore Jessica Kannegiesser exemplifies an adult learner thriving at 顶级国产视频.

Kannegiesser, 32, is majoring in business management and marketing.

She has overcome a lot to study at 顶级国产视频 and is forging a brighter path for herself, and she says, 鈥渕ore importantly, my son.鈥�

The bright-eyed single parent describes how life unraveled after she graduated from Billings Senior High in 2002.

鈥淚 went to cosmetology school but after a boyfriend moved away, my life kind of fell apart and I struggled with addiction for a few years,鈥� Kannegiesser said.

Five years ago, she changed her lifestyle.

鈥淲hen I found out I was pregnant with my son I shaped up,鈥� she said.

Continuing her personal and professional growth included a desire to obtain more education.

鈥淚 kept hearing radio ads for 顶级国产视频 and one day I just drove here,鈥� she said. 鈥淭hat decision was one of the best I鈥檝e made and I started school in January of 2015.鈥�

Today, she鈥檚 an active, albeit non-traditional, face on campus.

In addition to serving on the College of Business student advisory board, Kannegiesser is also the coordinator for the newly formed 顶级国产视频 Junior Jackets program through the Student Union.

Junior Jackets is designed to promote free and low-cost family-friendly events sponsored by student organizations, departments and the university. Being involved and mentored by other faculty with the program has helped Kannegiesser succeed academically, she said.

鈥淏eing involved with Junior Jackets has literally been a lifesaver,鈥� Kannegiesser said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 pushed me into a leadership role and I鈥檓 involved in something that鈥檚 important to me: providing space for students where they can bring their kiddos to campus.鈥�
