| Shakira Glenn, AmeriCorps Leader with LBHC |
Inspired by a quote by Plenty Coups, famous Chief of Crow Nation, “With an education you are…[an] equal; without education you are…[a] victim” Shakira L. Glenn, AmeriCorps Leader serving at Little Big Horn College, noted: “Without education we are a victim to circumstance. We as Crow people have the choice to better our well-being with education. There are many types of aid available in helping to do so; I am here for that sole purpose—to guide the people toward success, in becoming equal.” The staff and board of Montana Campus Compact welcome Shakira to service!
Shakira adds AmeriCorps to a resume that includes LBHC Business Management and Accounting student, wife and mother. Shakira faced multiple struggles in her college experience and is an example that anything is possible no matter the circumstances noting that “If you put your heart and mind into something—with determination—you will succeed.”
