"As SWTCC marks its 25th anniversary, I am filled with gratitude for the education and experiences I gained from SWTCC. Graduating in 2008 with dual AAS degrees in Hospitality Management, with specializations in Hotel Management and Food and Beverage Management, Southwest laid the foundational stones of my career. The journey did not end there; in 2011 when I decided to transition into public service, it was SWTCC that provided me with the necessary EMS education to make that critical shift. The support and guidance of the faculty and staff at the Macon Cove campus have been instrumental in shaping the professional I am today. I am immensely proud to be an alumnus of SWTCC, and I celebrate the relentless dedication this institution has shown in nurturing professionals across various fields. Here’s to many more years of success and impact!"
