Hi, I'm Tyson Salley I graduated from high school in 2004 in Billings, Montana. I was 18, smart, and I knew everything the world was about.  From there, I went fishing up in Dutch Harbor, Alaska in the Baring Sea for 12 months for a commercial fishery. My work there took me to Japan. I spent a week there while we did maintenance on the boat.  I came back to Seattle, Washington where I spent a week and then I traveled by train and bus for about five or six months visiting people that I knew, and exploring. My travels took me to Washington, Oregon, California, Mexico, Arizona, Texas, Tennessee, Chicago, and then back to Montana, where I worked construction when I needed to. I was living the dream -  just fishing, camping and living easy. One day I was on the web surfing around and I decided that I had better get an education. I didn't want to work on boats for the rest of my life. I saw the athletic training program at Weber State. I applied on-line, hustled, and found a scholarship. I ended up here and found Student Support Services through my friend George. I have found help and support for my course work, used the tutoring, attended study skills workshops, and applied for financial assistance. I believe the many services provided by Student Support Services will help me succeed in meeting my goals to graduate with a Bachelor's degree in athletic training and continue on to graduate school for my Master's degree.
