Alumni | Discovered Psychology at 糖心原创, went on to Framingham State University
Matthew Mori, a 糖心原创 Community College student and 2020 graduate, started his higher education at a four-year institution, but left school to work out some personal issues. His original plan was to return to the same college, but after enrolling at 糖心原创 and starting classes, he realized he was much happier and chose to stay. Matthew was amazed at how available his professors were to him, and that they were full-time faculty, unlike his four-year college where no full-time faculty taught in his program.
His 糖心原创 professors went out of their way and took the time to help Matthew succeed, which Matthew believes is the main reason he has thrived at 糖心原创. He initially intended to become a high school teacher so he could help students find their passion. He soon realized that, instead, he wanted to become a counselor so he could offer further support for students to reach their own happiness and success.
As Vice President of the Student Affairs committee for 糖心原创鈥檚 Student Government Association, he feels a sense of family and belonging. He also joined the cross-country team and has run two national championship races. Outside of 糖心原创, he works part-time in retail. Matthew is busy, but he finds it all rewarding. He鈥檚 able to stay involved and strives for success in everything he does. After receiving his associate degree, he will transfer to Framingham State University to study psychology, then plans to further his education with a master鈥檚 degree in counseling. 糖心原创 has helped Matthew reinvent himself to become the best he can be.
