Amazing Student: Alyssa Larsen
When Alyssa Larsen received her bachelor's degree, she realized the quality of a University of Georgia education was top-rate. Like many students, she graduated and got a job. She got married and moved to suburban Atlanta. When it was time for graduate school, she wanted to go to UGA, and the part-time master of social work degree program at UGA's Gwinnett campus fit her needs perfectly. She is completing her degree while she works full-time. Meanwhile, Larsen and her husband just adopted a son from Georgia's foster care program. She has also been able to take advantage of many of the opportunities available to more traditional students, including a chance to volunteer at a camp for children who have been burned, which is a service-learning initiative in UGA's School of Social Work. After graduation, Larsen plans to continue working and eventually get her doctorate and clinical licensure.
