Melissa Wescott has been chosen as the College of Menominee Nation’s Student of the Year. She is a first generation college student studying a degree in Substance Abuse Counseling.
Wescott, a mother of five children, has navigated personal adversities during her time as a student at CMN, including difficulties finding childcare and time for her school work. She remains focused and is an activist in the Menominee community working with “Woodland Women,” a local non-profit group, and in her community’s 4-H group.
Wescott says, “My education is my honor and pride. Not only for myself, but for my children, my family, my community, and my Tribe.” Her goal is to become an AODA counselor to help individuals in her community. After obtaining her associate degree from CMN, she plans to continue on with her educational journey with hopes to complete her master’s in social work.
CMN’s Student of the Year receives a $1,200 scholarship and will join those from other accredited tribal colleges and universities honored annually through AIHEC.
