Having family from the area, that were poor a generation ago


I don't often hear, like, quotes like these from, like poor rural people....

“so like literally every student, third-year and under from Appalachia, I’ve had some sort of personal interaction with at this university.”

“It was like one of those moments where you see you coming full circle, and the cooler part about that is it also was a way for me to kind of plug our initiative as Friends of Appalachia to them and help bring them onboard,”
