Local Couple Graduates College Together

Posted

Copper Center, AK -- A Copper Center couple traveled thousands of miles to New Hampshire last month to graduate from college together.

 

Tisha, 36, and Carl Griffin, 40, are busy parents of three who do it all together. They share a home life, work for the same company, and are now both graduates of Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU). Throughout their programs, the pair proofread each other's work, turning stressful deadlines into moments of togetherness.

 

“My wife has been my rock, always encouraging me to keep going, even when I was tired or stressed from juggling work, travel, and school,” Carl said. “Tisha reminded me why I started this journey in the first place.”

 

Carl is an Air Force veteran who hopes his degree will continue to support his professional growth in civilian life. Tisha plans to use her degree to enhance her work on behalf of the Native community. The Griffins are both proud first-generation college graduates and shared that the flexibility to earn their degrees online is what made it possible.
