Congratulations to School of Business student, Bradley Wooten, winner of the Outstanding Student Award! A nontraditional student with a wealth of experience, Bradley W. has made an effort to maximize his college experience. Bradley already holds bachelor’s degrees in Philosophy and Journalism and Mass Communication from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and this weekend, he completes his IT - Cybersecurity Specialist associate degree here at WCTC. If you’re at the morning commencement ceremony, you’ll have the pleasure of hearing him speak. He’ll be celebrating again soon when he completes a second associate degree, IT - Network Specialist, in December. Bradley’s dedication is evident in his 4.0 GPA and several honor society memberships, but it extends far beyond the classroom. “I’ve sought opportunities and created them, resulting in a transformative college experience,” he said. He has been officer, organizer and competitor for the WCTC Cybersecurity Team, competing in events like Hivestorm and National Cyber League, as well as serving as mentor and assistant coach for CyberPatriot, inspiring the next generation of cybersecurity professionals. If you’ve visited campus recently, Bradley may have been your tour guide. He has also served as a Student Government Association senator, a mentor to high school students in our Dual Enrollment Academy and Multicultural Engagement Center, a speaker on student panels, and an active volunteer both on campus and in the community. In his professional IT role at Husco, he’s able to immediately apply what he learns in class to his work. Bradley contributes valuable feedback as part of the WCTC's IT advisory committee, helping ensure that what we teach in the classroom reflects real employer expectations. “Being recognized for effort and time in serving others is a great feeling,” he said. “I am encouraged to further dedicate myself to making a positive contribution to our community and the broader field of cybersecurity.” Well deserved, Bradley! You have an incredible future ahead of you!
