Dawn Tolchinsky
Major: BA, Psychology
Hometown: Swansea, MA
"Age doesn't matter when going back to school to achieve the goals and dreams you're aiming for."
What are your plans after graduation?
I'm going to pursue my Masters in Psychology. I'll also be working at The May Institute where I will be a case manager for adults with mental illness.
What makes UMass Dartmouth so special?
It's a great school! They offer so many different programs to fit your needs.
What has been your greatest challenge here?
Attending college full-time, working full-time, and taking care of my family. Making the National Dean's List for the 06-07 school year. That wasn't easy, but I busted my butt to get where I am today.
Who would you like to thank?
I'd like to thank my Spanish professor Mr. John Twomey for believing in me, and all my psych professors (you know who you are) for making my psych classes interesting and fun.
