#StaffSaturday: Barbara Gentry

To the left is a picture of, Barbara Gentry. To the right of the post reads, "#Staff Saturday, Barbara Gentry, Administrative Assistant in Admissions."

You’ve met her before as UACCM Student Services Student of the Month, but this time she’s our #StaffSaturday feature. Meet Barbara, Gentry, Administrative Assistant in Admissions!

Barbara is a recent alum, finishing her associate degree in business just last year. Barbara says her favorite part of working at UACCM is getting to know the students, staff, and instructors. When she’s not at work, Barbara enjoys relaxing at home and watching her chickens and geese. 


Here’s a quick Q&A with Barbara:

Why should students choose UACCM?

Students should choose UACCM because the class sizes are small and the instructors care.

Do you have any special tips or tricks UACCM students should know?

Go to class every day, try the Fusion Fries at King Fry, and your flash drive is your life.


She also added, “Meet your classmates, love your instructors, and enjoy your time here. It goes by quickly.”

Congratulations to UACCM's September Student of the Month, Jasmine Novak! Jasmine is in her final semester of UACCM's Associate of Applied Science in Early Childhood Education degree. After graduation, Jasmine plans to continue her education at UACCM and pursue an Associate of Science in Education degree. Jasmine's goal is to transfer to a four-year university to get a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education.  Jasmine is a first-generation college student and UACCM was the best fit for her because of tuition, proximity, and campus resources.  Jasmine says her favorite things about UACCM are the student and faculty interactions. "Faculty care about students and want them to succeed."  We asked Jasmine if she had any advice for current and future Timberwolves, she said, "Never be afraid to take advantage of campus recourses. The Learning Center, Student Development Office, and Student Success Center are there to help and will never judge you!" Each month
