 |
Karen Stewart of Bolingbrook joined the Alumni Board in March
2003. She is currently enrolled as a full-time student at the University of
St. Francis where she is pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary
Education. Karen came to Joliet Junior College in 1998 with the intent of receiving a Certificate of Achievement as a Teacher’s Assistant. After achieving this goal in May 2001, Karen was encouraged by her sense of success, and she decided to pursue an associate’s degree in order to continue the study of education at the undergraduate level. |

In May 2002, Karen realized her dream as she graduated from JJC with an Associate of Arts degree and a 4.0 grade point average. While at JJC, Karen was
selected to become a member of the 2002 All-Illinois Academic Team, as
well as the Student Speaker for the 2002 commencement ceremony. She was
also a member and officer Alpha Lambda Phi, JJC’s chapter of Phi Theta
Kappa. In addition to being a devoted mom of sons Jonathan and Nicholas,
Karen also finds time to volunteer with University Ministry at USF, St.
Paul’s Lutheran Church, and the Illinois PTA. In her leisure time, she
enjoys reading and cross-stitch. |
