DYERSBURG, Tenn. Two Dyersburg State Community College alumni were honored with the Outstanding Alumni Award.
Dyersburg State says Kenyata Jones, of Humboldt, and Shaun Lehmann, of Dyersburg, were given the award on April 1 during its annual spring conference.
Jones, who graduated from DSCC in 2003, achieved an Associate of Science degree in Psychology, and went on to have a career as a children and youth case manager and as a social worker.
Jones says chose the college for its size.
“I chose DSCC because I wanted a smaller class size and the chance to establish close relationships with other students and my professors,” Jones said. “I thrive in a collaborative environment and I relished the opportunity to engage with other students. Also, DSCC provides lower tuition costs, flexibility and you could earn a degree.”
