KAZI AKTER
B.A. in Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences: Minor in Philosophy
Brooklyn native Kazi Akter encountered obstacles in high school on her way to graduation and questioned if school was the right path for her to take. Although she struggled with self-doubt about continuing her educational journey, she refused to give up and found her way to 精东影业.

She was able to find her passion for learning again through the Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences program at CWE. It not only provided her with a flexible education, since she worked, but satisfied her need for a wellrounded program with an array of subjects to choose from.
鈥溇耙 has provided me with an incredible, affordable education and pushed me to grow in ways I never imagined,鈥 said Akter, who is passionate about social justice and community empowerment. 鈥淗ere, I鈥檝e been challenged, supported and given the tools to thrive.鈥
Akter maintained a 3.9 GPA while balancing her job and being a student mentor. She is involved in the MSO/WII club (Muslim Student Organization and Women in Islam) and was awarded the CUNY-NYCHA Scholarship, S Jay Levy Scholarship and Social Justice Prize from CWE.
After graduation, she will continue working at the Brooklyn Public Library while applying for graduate school to become a philosophy professor one day.
