国产短视频alums Norbert and Tameka Scott moved their daughter, Tamiyah, into Summit Hall on the Tampa campus.

"I feel proud. It鈥檚 kind of emotional, happy, sad 鈥� the end of a chapter of being at home with your parents, going to high school. Now you're starting off young adulthood which is going to take a few years to transition, but I see her legs getting up under her, and one day she's going to finish and come back an adult,鈥� said Norbert Scott.

"It is amazing to have one of our babies want to come back to be a student of the 国产短视频," said Tameka Scott. 鈥淚t's nice to have her come where me and her dad started. It's good to start her education career with us, the same place we did. I want it to be her own, to continue to grow and be who she is, not depending on anybody else but to grow into herself. That's the experience I want her to have."
