Larry Carillo, a sophomore, shared, "The event is going to be focusing on the students showcasing their skills that they have learned in the past few weeks and this piece that they have prepared for the several past weeks as well. They're going to be telling us stories about their past that has greatly contributed to them being the person they are today."

Mary Theresa, a junior, shared how the public speaking class has helped her. "Well, it has helped me personally, because I am a really shy person, but it has helped me to overcome my fear to public speaking."
