Way To Go, Joseph!

Joseph is currently in a Communications class. Two weeks ago, he had to give a speech. He had the option of videotaping his speech and then entering it into the Speech Showcase that Boise State has. They were going to select six Comm 101 students to be in the Showcase and the winner of the Showcase gets $300.00. So, he figured that he had nothing to lose by submitting his speech.

He got a 97 out of 100 on his speech. I was so proud of him. He works really hard in school and he doesn't always feel like he is very smart. However, after he got back from Spring Break, his teacher told him that he was one of the six students that had made it into the Showcase. I am once again, so proud of him.

He competes in the Showcase on Monday. I will definitely take some pictures and will let everybody know how he does!
