Student Affairs Monthly Student Spotlight Announced
Tennessee Tech pre-dental student, Alex Stovall, admirably gives meaning to the title servant leader. When nominating Alex for this student spotlight, Mrs. Coonce says, “In Alex’s leadership positions, he is bold, fearless, confident, and kind.” Alex represents this affirmation through his position as the volunteer Hospitality Leader in the Remote Area Medical (RAM) clinic, in which he recruits and hosts medical professionals and surpasses expectations through deeply caring for every volunteer present. Alex’s passion to serve others can also be seen in his involvement with Dr. Jesse Carrick’s research of materials to clean and recycle nuclear waste. Through his research, Alex has learned that “perseverance truly is the key to success.” He encourages students, “Find something you are truly passionate about and work to advance it. The results are not immediate, but with passion comes the perseverance necessary to succeed.” Thank you, Alex, for being an inspiration on campus.
Do you know a student who exemplifies Bold, Fearless, Confident, and Kind values? If so, take a moment to nominate them for the Student Affairs Monthly Student Spotlight. The nomination form is linked here!
