Megan's Story
Megan came to USU on scholarship but ended up losing that scholarship when she didn’t do as well as she had in high school. She went on to graduate with a degree in Accounting. She currently owns Temptation Cupcakes (in Logan, UT), is the mother of two adorable young children, and is the accountant for her husband’s landscaping business. She came to understand why a college education goes beyond job training.
