拉苏尔一li learned some life lessons the hard way but now, nearly six years after starting the Engineering Science program, 他的毅力表现出来了.  A graduate of Green Tech High School in Albany, Rasul started his higher education at the College of Saint Rose back in 2012, but he admits that he simply wasn't prepared to make that leap from high school to college. 在一个学期之后, he was out of school and working a two jobs to make ends meet and pay off his college debt.  \u201CI got kind of overwhelmed by being in school full-time and working almost full-time and I fell flat. I wasn't managing my time so I dropped out and just kept working,他说.  After a few years out in the working world, Rasul knew he could accomplish more. 逐渐, he started taking a few classes at Hudson Valley through the Office of Continuing Education. \u201CI enrolled in one course and then the next semester I enrolled in another and then I just kept going,他说. \u201CBy the second or third semester, I knew I wanted to study Engineering Science so that was my focus, but I still had a lot of things in my way.\u201D   With the Spring 2019 semester looming, Rasul realized that if he went back full-time and took four courses, he could finish his degree and make plans to transfer. That\u2019s just what he'll be doing, five and a half years after he started at Hudson Valley.  One person who will watch with pride as Rasul crosses the stage at commencement is his mom. 她总能看到我的潜力. She was one of those parents who even if you got a 90, she was saying \u2018how come this wasn't a 95?2019年,是的,她会在那里. 她对我要求很高.\u201D Rasul has some scholarship opportunities and is weighing his financial aid options as he looks to continue his education but he said he looks back with real pride to his accomplishments at Hudson Valley. \u201CI remember back just trying to get through Calc I and thinking \u2018how am I ever going to do this?但它正在发生. 我把这里看作一个检查点. 我只是想继续前进.\u201D
“我把这里看作一个检查点. 我只是想继续前进.”
