Graduate Guest Book

Hyrum W Merkley
Computer Science Technology, A.S.

Current Residence :

Waterford, CT

Degree/Certificate:

Computer Science Technology, A.S.

Year of Graduation:

2023

I wanted to earn my degree because:

I enjoy programming and wanted to have a general technology degree, as I want to go into game design, but wanted to learn more technical aspects of computer science.

While earning my degree, my greatest supporters were:

My family, friends, and partner.

I’d like to give a shout out to:

Yvette Onye, Soumyashree Sahoo, Andrew Marvin, and Todd Barry, are all amazing professors! My partner is also amazing, and I have amazing friends in my office, and two amazing bosses. My family has been tremendously supportive as well.

What I like best about my degree program and what it means to me is:

I love to create. Whether it be story writing or coding, I get to make things with words. It is something truly magical.

What I enjoyed most about my experience at Three Rivers Community College was:

Learning what type of people I value most in life, and how to help people better.

Clubs, volunteer work, organizations that I participated in while at Three Rivers included:

Student Government, Video Game Club, Anime Club, Phi Theta Kappa, Volunteering for the Winter Drive, Student Programs Office.
