I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Going to college was always Jeffery Turnipseed\u2019s goal \u2013 it was never a question of if but a question of where the Calera, Alabama, native would attend.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy high school math teacher went to Auburn and it wasn\u2019t until hearing my teacher talk about her love for this school and being introduced to the Auburn Family. I thought it was a clich\u00e9 at first but once I learned more about the Auburn Family, I knew Auburn was for me,\u201d said Turnipseed, a senior in computer engineering.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Auburn Family is something that I\u2019ve literally felt from the time that I was thinking of coming to Auburn to the first time I stepped on campus, and it\u2019s something that I know I\u2019ll be a part of once I leave.\u201d<\/p>\n

Turnipseed is the first generation of his family to attend college.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an opportunity he does not take lightly.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m all about embracing life and educating myself,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m setting an example for future generations of my family and my community to go to college and be inspired to pursue their dreams and passions, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Throughout his Auburn Engineering experience, Turnipseed has taken advantage of opportunities to get involved to grow personally and professionally, from intramural sports to the Engineering Academic Excellence Program.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom being involved, I know there is an expectation for Auburn students to be great, not just for Auburn but for the community as well,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s about pushing us to be better than we are and better than we were. It\u2019s truly about developing character. Everyone is a leader when they leave Auburn University.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
