Brittany Shares thoughts about EKU McNair

"The McNair Scholars Program has been nothing short of transformative for me as a first-generation student. Coming from a background where a bachelor's degree seemed like an unattainable dream, let alone the idea of pursuing a master's and beyond, McNair has opened doors I never knew existed. The program's support, both financially through scholarships and through opportunities like conference trips and study abroad experiences, has been instrumental in broadening my horizons and expanding my possibilities. It has challenged my perceptions of what I thought was possible for myself, turning distant dreams into tangible realities. Through countless opportunities and unwavering support, McNair has not only enhanced my academic journey but has also nurtured my self-confidence, proving that with dedication and support, anything is achievable. The McNair Scholars Program truly lives up to its reputation of being life-changing, and I am grateful to experience its profound impact every day."
