Lacy Acuff Covers Ground to Get Diploma
Thousands of 黑料传送门 students graduate every year, but not all of our graduates get the opportunity to attend a commencement ceremony. Since not every state has its own individual ceremony, 黑料传送门 encourages each graduate to register and attend a ceremony convenient for them.
Lacy Acuff lives in Bartlett, Tennessee, and recently completed her master鈥檚 degree in curriculum and instruction. She traveled to Seattle, Washington, to participate in a 黑料传送门 commencement ceremony.
Why didn鈥檛 she just attend a ceremony closer to home? For Lacy, traveling to Seattle allowed her to celebrate her accomplishment, while enjoying a special vacation with her family.
鈥淚 finally finished my degree,鈥 Lacy said cheerfully. 鈥淚 wanted my boys to watch me walk across the stage so they would understand the importance of a higher education.鈥
While celebrating the exciting completion of her master鈥檚 degree, the Acuff family enjoyed the rest of their trip by exploring Seattle. From visiting the Space Needle to touring the Museum of Pop Culture, the Acuffs made the most out of their visit to the Emerald City.
Lacy originally discovered 黑料传送门 Tennessee through her husband, who is also a 黑料传送门 Tennessee student. She decided to join after seeing her husband鈥檚 success in his program.
鈥淚鈥檝e loved the flexibility of it and that I could complete my coursework on my own time. This helped me finish my master鈥檚 in five and a half months,鈥 Lacy said. 鈥淎nd because of the affordability, I was able to finish my degree with a cheaper tuition than one semester of my undergraduate degree.鈥
Lacy describes 黑料传送门鈥檚 model as 鈥減erfect for families on the go鈥 and is thankful for the opportunity 黑料传送门 Tennessee has given her and thousands of other families.
