- Personal Journals
On this week's episode we're discussing Education and sickle cell. I didn't always have the best game plan in school to let professors know about my condition.To me it felt like I was using my condition as an excuse and that was shameful so I didn't always tell them and it worked out for me--until it didn't and I had to jump through hoops to get a grade changed. I want you to learn from my mistakes. In this episode I share my love for my alma mater N.C. A&T, briefly explain why HBCUs were created, and share a few tips on how to be proactive by letting professors know early of any medical conditions.
