Alumni Testimonials - Daniel Jock

My name is Daniel Jock and I graduated STCC in May ’04 with an A.S. in Business Administration.  This was a wonderful opportunity for me.  You see, I graduated Agawam High School in ’99, but after which I went to prison for two years for some serious felonies that I committed when I was seventeen.  I had no SAT’s, a poor high school record, and no money.  STCC helped me through a Phi Theta Kappa scholarship to earn my degree. 

After graduation, I was working as a server at Max’s Tavern, and I went on to WNEC.  I earned a B.A. in mathematics in May ’07 while supporting my wife of 2 years now and our 11-month-old baby.  I have recently received a substantial offer from MassMutual where I will be starting in July as an actuarial analyst training to become an enrolled actuary.

I want to thank STCC for being a keystone in my professional development.  My education there was a stepping block for me to achieve greater things in life.
