  • Meet Infinity Wallace, a first-generation student who will graduate Saturday with a degree in criminal justice. She previously graduated this past May with a degree in social work, AND is also currently enrolled in the Master of Social Work program. ๐ŸŽ“โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
"Itโ€™s hard to focus on school when you have so many problems with drugs and poverty in the community. I know from first-hand experience what it is like not to have shelter, food, and clothes. I chose my major because I wanted to make a change in the world. I want to help all people, such as people of color who are oppressed and over-represented in the criminal justice system." โš–๏ธโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Congrats on your degrees, Infinity!
  • Tell your mom, tell your dad, tell your grandma, tell your cousin's best friend: get to graduation early! The doors to the Jack Stephens Center open at 8 a.m. โฐ Early arrival is strongly encouraged as the roads and parking lots will be crowded.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
The JSC is accessible from Fair Park or University Avenue. ๐Ÿš— Guests are encouraged to park in the lots nearest the JSC โ€” Lot 13, Lot 14 and Lot 16. However, all interior campus parking lots will be open during commencement, including the parking deck and Lot 8.
  • Meet Shakayla Zoss, president of the #UALittleRock chapter of Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and a communications intern for the Arkansas Fly Fishers. Shakayla is set to graduate Saturday with a degree in mass communication with a concentration in strategic communications and a minor in marketing. ๐ŸŽ“โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
"The professors at the School of Mass Communication are all so amazing. They are really sincere and want you to do well. I also loved that they had experience working in the fields that they were teaching, and the stories and advice that they would share."โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Shakayla's advice to new students: "Do as many internships as you can through school."โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Congrats, Shakayla! Read the full story on our Facebook page.
  • Meet Malik Williams, a native of Waldo, Arkansas (pop. 1,283), who will graduate this Saturday with a bachelorโ€™s degree in business information systems. ๐ŸŽ“โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Malik says he chose #UALittleRock because he wanted to pursue a business degree and the university is located in the capital city.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
"I wanted a major that would help me make a good living. I chose business information systems because it combined business and computer science. Iโ€™ve always been interested in technology."โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
His advice to incoming students: "Stay focused and keep a good balance. Donโ€™t overwhelm yourself. The stress is real. Take care of everything on the front end and network. You canโ€™t get by without help."โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Congrats on your degree, Malik! Read the full story on our Facebook page.

  • You may recognize Janelle Lilley from @katvnews, but did you know Janelle will graduate on Saturday with her law degree from @ualrbowenlaw? Janelle realized that having a law degree would benefit her as a reporter when she needed to report on and understand the law. โš–๏ธ She was part of Bowenโ€™s part-time law school program, the only program of its kind in the state.
