Nikkesha Davenport
Nikki's path into IU has not been a straight or easy one but she persisted, coming in as a GROUPS scholar in 2014 and graduating in December 2019. She received a Liberal Studies degree in Social and Historical Sciences, with a focus on social inequality as equity is essential to her goals and interests. Since January 2020, she worked in our office as a Graduation and Retention Specialist with ScholarCorps AmeriCorps. She chose to serve in the IU Bloomington 21st Century Scholars office to give back and help scholars navigate the roadblocks that may arise while completing undergrad. She plans to continue to serve scholars as she has now transitioned to the academic advisor, career prep coordinator role. She is also starting her Counseling Psychology master’s program here at IU.
