LSUS graduate finished degree while deployed near Russian border π π«‘
Keona Tidwell wasnβt going to put her life on hold.
The infantry officer in the U.S. Army knew deployment was likely when she was commissioned two years ago, but Tidwell also dreamed of working in the medical field after her military career.
So she decided to start the Master of Health Administration program at LSUS this past summer.
Tidwell earned her degree in 10 months despite spending more than half of that time deployed in Estonia, an Eastern European country that borders Russia.
βI didnβt know exactly when I would deploy when I started the program, but I decided to play it by ear,β Tidwell said. βI was nervous and scared about continuing my classes when I got my orders to deploy to Estonia, but you never know until you try.
βMy military service had to come first, but I overcommunicated with all of my professors to let them know about situations when they came up. My professors worked with me without hesitation, and none of them told me that I should drop classes (while deployed).β

LSUS graduate beats brain tumors, becomes author and publisher.
Crystal L. Gantt toted her books and her homework to a routine doctorβs visit when she heard the words she thought sheβd never hear again.
Her brain tumor was back.
Gantt, who had beaten brain tumors following a surgery in 2011, was in her final semester of the Master of Business Administration program at LSUS in 2016.
βI asked the doctor if he was joking,β Gantt said. βThe first thing I thought was that I canβt do this again.
βWhy is this happening to me? Iβm so young. But after those waves of emotion, then came the strength, the resilience and the courage. Ok, I have to go through it again, I have to beat it again. There is a purpose and a reason β thereβs a testimony at the end.β

Q: Tell us about yourself.
R: Hello, Iβm Dr. Michael Becerra, and I am an assistant professor and the interim program director for the counseling program in the Department of Psychology. I chose to become a counselor because I felt a strong calling to advocate for the underrepresented and to help people navigate important life transitions. I think of myself as a generalist counselor educator with a background in vocational rehabilitation, clinical mental health, family systems, and school counseling. My experience involves working as a bilingual counselor within the youth and family centers of the Dallas Independent School System; as an in-home therapist with at-risk kids and their families in New Jersey, and as a vocational rehabilitation counselor with state vocational rehabilitation agencies in Pennsylvania and Texas. I have also been fortunate to have had international experience teaching and conducting psychology research in Colombia; maintaining an active license and practice in professional counseling and supervision in Louisiana, Georgia, and New Jersey; as well as certifications in rehabilitation counseling and basic cannabinoid medicine.
Q: What would you say are your noteworthy achievements or projects?
R: Currently, my professional interests and publications are on technology use in counseling; menβs roles and wellness; entrepreneurship and amateur documentary filmmaking, Latino family influence on psychology students in training; school-to-workforce and post-secondary transition; and medical cannabis in counseling. I serve the local community by providing pro-bono bilingual counseling services at the MLK Health Center and by providing training on mental health through LSU Ag Centerβs community education grant for menβs health initiatives. I am also a vocational expert with the Social Security Administrationβs disability hearings as well as a member of the Louisiana Counseling Association.

Students are invited to attend a free screening of award-winning military documentary βNo Greater Loveβ on Thursday from 6-9 p.m.
The screening, which will include a lecture and discussion by filmmaker Justin Roberts, requires an RSVP to attend as space is limited in the University Center Theatre.
Roberts, a former U.S. Army Chaplain, brought a camera along to capture events from the βNo Slackβ Battalion, 101st Airborne Division during his tour in Afghanistan.
Roberts didnβt film with the intent of making a documentary, but he wanted regular American citizens to get an unparalleled view into soldiersβ lives from someone who was part of the military.
