I was impressed and moved by this presentation. I think what moved me the most was the flow of the presentation in addition to the success of the interviewee. Questions were asked and answer in a way that made the presentation easy to listen to and understand.
I was happy to learn about the wonderful opportunities that have occurred for Capella learners. To know that others are succeeding uplifted my spirit and reinforced my belief in myself.
To Ms. Berverly, “you go girl”.

This was the first time that I have had an opportunity to listen to the podcast. I
was very amazed at how the interview was conducted. Also how encourageing Sharon was to continue with your education and reach beyond the stars. Set your mind to it and work on it. Don’t wait until life wakes you up. Do it ahead of time and be on top of the issues ahead.
Thank you Sharon and Capella for the opportunity to learn.
Thank you

This was a great interview and I am especially proud to say I met Ms. Beverly during my first Colloquim in Dulles VA. For those of you who don’t know, she has just completed her Comps and passed with flying colors. She truly is an amazing, phenominal woman. All of our original cohort has remained in touch and each of us have expressed our appreciation for how Capella allows us to do our day jobs and put our student suits on at night….
Sharon is truly amazing and I know I can speak for our entire cohort, when I say, we are so proud of her!!!
My congratulations to Sharon Beverly!!! The interview was amazing because it hit so close to home for me.
Thank you for sharing Sharon!!!

Sharon,
It was a great interview and presentation. Congratulations on your comps. The PhD is on its way! I am glad that we had the chance to re-connect during the Colloquia.

I really enjoyed listening to the podcast and found it very inspiring. As an African-American working in the University setting (HBCU) I was particulary interested in this particular Podcast. I am currently a Ph.D learner and will complete my courswork this summer. I have also found the door to opportunity to be very positive in the collegiate setting.
Again the Podcast was inspirational and I encourage Capella University to continue to broadcast such positive messages.

Thank you so much for the motivational interview! For those who have suffered much throughout their lives, the impetus for conquering milestones is tough. I always love hearing the words, “If I can do it, anyone can do it.” I hope to be there someday, able to say those same words!
Thank you, again.

Great interview S.B. Sharon is one of the PhD learners that I am in contact with via email. She, along with several other learners that I met at various colloquia, has been an encouragement to me. Within that group of supporters we have all completed our comprehensive examinations and are working on our dissertations. One of the members of the group has already received his PhD.
As Sharon indidicated, it is a good thing to develop a support group who can give you advice and encouragement along the way.

2 or 3 years ago there was a lady by the name of Sandra Norell-Thomas who was the AD at Howard University. But she no longer has that position. So I do believe that Ms. Beverly is the only one

It was truly a pleasure to listen and learn from this interview. Sharon is very articulate and intelligent and the content of this interview supports the fact that she is one of the only African American females heading an athletic department. It amazes me that Sharon can be so progressive and yet down to earth. I received encouragement from listening, as well as that extra push to prepare for my Doctorate in Education program. As an African American female, it is comforting to know that there is another face somewhat like mine, leading the way. For women other that African American, I’m sure Sharon serves a similiar purpose, as well. Sharon is most definitely the vision of what most of us want to become. No matter where we have derived from, we are all in need of encouragement. I am honored to be afforded the opportunity to be associated with such excellence through this University. Sharon proves that her selection was justified and worthy. Because of this and many other reasons, I am proud to affiliated with such a fine university.

Sharon,
“You only come this way once,” is a great mantra. Congratulations and you truly held your own in the interview. You are a wonderful illustration of the competent Capella Learner.
Best of luck to you in the future.

The interview with Dr. Sharon Beverly was outstanding. The inspiration that I received from the conversation between the interviewer and interviewee will go with me along way as a learner and candidate for the Ph. D. in Human Services concentrating in counseling. Thank you for this blog site of on-line learning’s great achievements through Capella University.

This was an inspirational and sincere interview. Sharon should continue to motivate others because we are all in need of a some sort of motivation. Thanks for sharing with us!

I had the opportunity to read all the comments on the podcast and I wanted to thank everyone for taking the time out of your busy schedules to comment. Your words truly inspired me to continue with my journey. Thank you!
Big hug to old friends that reached out and to “new ones” that shared their feelings as well.
Big hug,
Sharon

I really enjoyed the conversation, and I am happy that I am attending a great University such as Capella University. This live conversation would also be great if integrated into the course room.

You go girl! Sharon you are an inspiration to all women especially African American Women. Thanks for being a participator and not spectator. Thanks for inspiring us to live our dreams; so many have sacrificed for us to have these opportunities that we can take advantage of. Best wishes and congratulations!
