Canvas Student Voices: Deanna, De La Salle University
So it started in high school. It was the first day of tenth grade. And then, yeah, I felt the tic coming, so I immediately went to the clinic. And as soon as I, you know, I got to the clinic, hospital bed, I started ticcing, like, really, really bad. So I was I was rushed to the nearest hospital when my dad picked me up, and he was so worried. And then we were both just quiet on the way home.
And that was the last day of school for me. I'm Diana. I have been diagnosed with Tourette syndrome and generalized epilepsy for about nine years now. Most of the time the struggle was with acceptance. So that was the hard part, not having the the answers.
I had the best support system, not just at home, but again, with my professors, friends. I worked really hard because I wanted to go back to regular school. For me, Del Sol University is a home that provided me an inclusive education. All those struggles, those dark times, they were really worth it because in February of twenty twenty four, I got my degree in literature. I never expected any of that.
It was almost an impossibility for me. In fact, I didn't even expect to catch up with college. So right now, I'm in grad school. I'm taking the teacher certificate program. There are days where I can still be absent because of my condition.
So the announcements tab of Canvas really helps me to become updated with my professors. Honestly, really, Canvas has been a huge help in my pursuit of my education. And then, again, then and now. Canvas made it easier for me by, helping me to be in direct contact with my professors. That feature alone, other than every other feature that makes it more, accessible and useful, helped me to, you know, progress in my education.
Struggles in life, adversities, they will always come, but it's how you deal with them. And it's important to know that you can lean on people. De La Salle University is, for me, a home, honestly, because it's one it's a major reason why I'm choosing to pursue education, why I want to be an educator in the future. I was really inspired by my professor, especially in the literature, department. They believes in me, and I think that's the best part of it because I made it.
