Description
Layla Dickerson went from a student who acted out in elementary school, to a student-advocate for the new B.B.A in Business and Law for St. Mary’s University. Through her dedication to education and service, Dickerson has been able to flourish at St. Mary’s University, and after first hearing of the new major saw it as an exciting opportunity to pursue. She was so excited that she filmed a short video to help explain to Rowena Ortiz-Walters why this new major would be of benefit to her studies. This has been in the making for a long while as since the passing of her grandfather, Dickerson made a promise to graduate law school, and to be an example for her younger sisters. From a troublemaker to a student with a bright future, Dickerson is embarking on a new path freshly with the help of St. Mary’s University.
