Chasity Porter is one busy college student.

She’s now jokingly known as Walters State’s cover girl since her picture is prominently featured on the cover of the 2006-07 Walters State Catalog and Student Handbook. She’s just been elected secretary of the Student Government Association and she was a nominee for Ms. WSCC 2006. As a Senators’ Page, she gives campus tours – one of her favorite activities.

“I love giving campus tours,” Chasity said. In fact, Walters State’s small campuses played a major role in her decision to attend the college.

“Walters State is a small college but it gives you the same things a big college would.  And it’s not so hectic here. You don’t have to walk far between classes and you get to know your professors.

“I love the small classrooms. It’s so much better than having huge classes,” she said.

Chasity is one of a growing number of homeschool students attending Walters State. She said the college is perfect for students who finished high school in their family’s living room.

“There’s always a lot going on at Walters State. The Word Up Club has movies that you can watch for free on Thursdays. If you want to be involved, there’s plenty to do as a student.”
