"Key motivators for me would have to be my family. I want to be great and “secure the bag” and make my family proud. "
Drew Buggs
Alum / 2019 / Sociology / Cosumnes River College
Did you always want your major or did you change your course?
I attended CRC to continue my basketball and academic careers. When I first got to college, I wanted to be a sports trainer so I got into Kinesiology. I ended up switching to sociology because of the many paths I can take with that degree. Recently, I was able to transfer with a full ride scholarship to play basketball for Xavier University of Louisiana, where I plan on pursuing sociology and minor in education.
What is your main motivation?
Key motivators for me would have to be my family. I want to be great and “secure the bag” and make my family proud.
I used to never take schooling serious before college—now, I see the growth. My future goals are to one day play (basketball) overseas or I would like to work with education and finding greater educational opportunities, environments, and funding for low income areas in the country.
What is your advice to current and future students?
I have definitely had struggles throughout my academic career, but the staff is amazing at CRC.
The instructors and staff are the best part about the college. Everyone is so helpful. One of my professors who motivated me was also my advisor. Not only was she an excellent instructor, but she was available in office hours to just talk. She pushed me to want to be great especially as a young black man. And as an athlete, I can say from experience that the CRC basketball program is top notch. Some of the best coaching in JUCO.
My advice is to find something you love, then make it into a dream.
Chase it. Catch it. Make it into your reality.
“There’s always a bag to chase.”
Never be satisfied—there’s always more to give.
