More than 150 Wallace State Community College students were inducted into the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS) during the 2025-2026 academic year, marking a milestone in their leadership and personal development journeys.
“Each student member here has gained meaningful leadership insight and perspective through the steps leading to induction,” said Kristen Holmes, Vice President for Students.
NSLS is a national organization that provides a comprehensive leadership program designed to foster personal growth, career success, and community engagement. The Wallace State chapter supports these goals through service projects each year. Most recently, members partnered with the Cullman County Animal Shelter by delivering donated supplies and spending time caring for the animals.
Area students inducted include:
- Toccara Corbin of Bessemer, AL
- Daniel Clark of Hueytown, AL
The induction ceremony featured guest speakers Drew Morton, a success advisor at Wallace State, and Jacob Chaviers, president of the Wallace State NSLS chapter.
Morton encouraged students to take responsibility for their goals and outcomes.
“Taking responsibility means to own what your next step is going to be and take charge of what end result you want to achieve,” Morton said. “Despite the cards you have been dealt, despite the pain you might have brought on yourself by bad decisions, it means to take charge of the end result you want to achieve.”
Registration for the summer and fall semesters is underway. Summer classes begin May 26 and fall classes begin Aug. 17. Visit www.wallacestate.edu for more information or call 256.352.8236 or email lioncentral@wallacestate.edu.
