Student Spotlight: Jordan Jackman

Q: What is your favorite course you have taken in the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences?

SOC- 3523, Upper division Criminology: I loved this course because it gave me a lot more insight on how criminology and criminal justice play significant roles in our day to day lives and how as a black woman in this country the content of the course affects my community and demographic specifically! I have always been interested in criminal justice and love how to course clarified a lot of the stereotypes we see in TV shows like Criminal Minds and SVU!

Q: What do you love about the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences?

What I love about the college is the diverse population of students that fall under the college, we have such a broad spectrum of majors and types of students and that makes being part of the college that much more special, every day I am meeting someone completely new and different from me.

Q: What is the most rewarding of receiving a degree from OU?

The most rewarding part of getting a degree from OU is knowing that as a first-generation student and a student of color, I am making space for future generations of black students to come and opening a door of opportunity for other students like myself to receive a good quality education at an institution that is predominately white and not always accommodating for marginalized groups.

Q: What is one piece of advice that has stuck with you during your time at OU?

One piece of advice that has stuck with me during my time here is "Never feel like you don't belong in a space" More often than not, many students from less privileged backgrounds feel that they do not belong in the spaces we occupy on this campus, feeling a sense of imposture syndrome or invalidation. But getting here to OU was only the first step in this journey; we have the credentials and qualifications and most importantly the capability to do great things regardless of our background, and that is something that I encourage everyone to keep in mind when navigating new spaces as we venture further into our careers.
