Growing up in Cameroon, Michael B. Agbortoko, Jr. ’14 was surrounded by individuals who found ways to overcome hardship, an environment that fuels creativity in order to solve problems. Now, 20 years after immigrating to the United States, he has created, founded, and nurtured his own American Dream.
In each issue of Assumption Magazine, the This Is Us feature is used to highlight aspects of the Assumption experience that makes it unique. In this issue, take a look at how a number of University departments strived to ensure the student experience was enriching and engaging, despite the unusual times.
The Alumni Relations Office has continued to connect with alumni all over the country through a variety of virtual programming. Alumni shared networking advice and career stories, like Elaine Ingalls ’17, who shared her firsthand experiences with the California wildfires.
Assumption was founded as a small institution filling a need to educate the sons of Franco-American families in Worcester and the surrounding communities; while much has changed both physically and academically, the University continues its mission to form thoughtful, compassionate graduates who fill unique needs in communities across the U.S. and even the world.
