Joe H., Winthrop, WA (Alum ’95-’96)

In 1995 & 1996 I worked in MO, IL, KY, TN and MS. I can not explain how I had the power to leave my comfortzone. To decide to work for experience and knowledge. To step outside the easy way of life and return home for my summers. But I did and it changed me, [...]

An amazing summer! Helped prepare me to be a success in business or any walk of life. Learned a lot about others, myself, and things I was capable of doing that I didn’t know I could do.

Lisa B., Maylene, AL (Alum ’90-’91)

Working on the bookfield was probably the most liberating experience of my life. It allows you great range of emotion. I know that after accomplishing 2 full summers (one as a walker) I can do ANYTHING I put my mind to. It is the best personal growth experience anyone could ever ask for. Not to [...]

Ed T., Ocala, FL (Alum ’91-’92)

It taught me to really be able to talk to people. I would not be able to interact with patients and staff to the same level without my Southwestern experience. I also paid for my wife’s engagement ring with the income!

Southwestern taught me a lot about humility and courage and how to be happy – even if the dogs chase you out! We had great times and made nice cash, which helped me start my life without college debts.

Russell H., Portland, OR (Alum ’93-’94)

My 2 summers with Southwestern were two of the most challenging and rewarding summers of my college experience. The experience helped me to develop from a quiet, introvert to a person who could confidently communicate in almost any setting. This experience clearly set me apart from other students when interviewing.

Jolene C., Moore, OK (Alum ’94-’95)

At the time they told me this would make the rest of my life easier. Of course, I didn’t believe them, and of course they were right. I recently spoke with an alum from the 70′s who told me that nothing in his life had been harder than selling books, and he’s been through a [...]
