Drago College Store Manager
“Go to classes and stick with it, because it’s easy to get behind.”
What services does Drago College Store offer students?
We purchase textbooks and supplies so students don’t have to go elsewhere to find what they need for their classes. We also carry souvenirs and Grizzly gear.
What do you find most rewarding about working for Missouri State-West Plains?
I worked in the teaching profession for 30 years, and the biggest thrill and accomplishment I felt was to help students succeed so they can go on to do great things in their lives. And I’m still helping students here.
What would advice would you give a current student about succeeding academically in college?
Get your books the first week, go to classes and stick with it, because it’s easy to get behind.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
I have nine grandkids, and I enjoy following them and going to their football, basketball, baseball and volleyball games. And those who don’t play sports yet, I just enjoy spending time with.
