Jessica Saxon CStep AdvisorCollege: UNC-CH
Department: English
Special Interests: 19th-century British sensation and gothic novels.
Favorite Quote: “Ships at a distance have every man’s wish on board. For some they come in with the tide. For others they sail forever on the horizon, never out of sight, never landing until the Watcher turns his eyes away in resignation, his dreams mocked to death by Time. That is the life of men.
Now, women forget all those things they don’t want to remember, and remember everything they don’t want to forget. The dream is the truth. Then they act and do things accordingly.”
– Zora Neale Hurston, Their Eyes Were Watching God, 1937

Favorite Quote: “The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.” – Ernest Hemingway

Student Testimonials

“C-STEP has provided me with invaluable opportunities. When I started at Craven I lacked direction and confidence in myself; I knew that I wanted to study English and I knew that I wanted to transfer, but I had no idea what the next step should be. I spent a year at Craven as a part-time student, then I came across C-STEP.

Since I was accepted into C-STEP, my academic career has changed; since then I have had direction and a plan. I was always a good student, but with the help of C-STEP I have become a great student. The friendships that I have forged thanks to C-STEP have made me more comfortable in the college setting, and the advising that I have received has given me confidence in myself.

My intended major at UNC is English and I hope to pursue a minor in Medicine, Culture, and Literature. Thanks to C-STEP I am ready to transfer, to succeed, and to fulfill my educational goals.”

Hallie French, C-STEP student
Craven CC class of 2015
UNC-Chapel Hill class of 2017


“Through my time with C-STEP, I experienced more than I ever thought possible in both the community college and university experience. We aren’t just an organization; we are a family. We laughed together, we cried together, and we watched each other bloom. Without C-STEP, I would have not gone to my dream school and have the achievements I’ve earned.”

Nicole Vandiford, C-STEP student
Craven CC class of 2016
UNC-Chapel Hill class of 2018
