From the Nominator
It’s not often that a Texas Tech student gets highlighted for their ambitions in The Wall Street Journal. When we learned this, we decided to do our own story on Cori and how her education at Texas Tech could help her achieve her goal of being Disney CEO one day. The response was better than we could have imagined, as both students and alumni alike were also inspired to wish upon a star.
