Student Success Story: Wah Wah Diamond

First-Generation GateWay Student 
Turns Challenging Past into Brighter Future

“As a first-generation college student growing up not knowing English,
the PTA program was extremely difficult for me, and I was tempted
to give up many times. During my time in college, I have experienced
embarrassment, fear, reluctance, and uncertainty because of my language
hurdles, but I also have experienced great triumphs as well. I have learned to
take risks and keep learning by not making excuses, regardless of the
disadvantages from my past.”
