Will Jirik will start his senior year at Rhodes College this fall. He is from Cabot, Arkansas, and studies business commerce. Will sustained his spinal cord injury in July of 2012 after completing his freshman year at Rhodes, taking the following school year off to engage in rehabilitation efforts. His favorite thing about college is the opportunity to meet people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. "I am so grateful for the opportunity to continue my education at Rhodes," Will states. He notes that his advisor, Dr. Planchon, and his fellow classmates "have followed my progress and been a huge source of encouragement." Will plans to make the most of his years in college: "Where there's a Will there's a way!"
