Alex Gurciullo, of Maxwell, has been named Business Student of the Month for November at North Platte Community College.

Gurciullo, the daughter of Terry Gurciullo Jr. and Veronica Sederlin, is a 2013 graduate of Maxwell High School. She is studying accounting at NPCC and will graduate in May of 2015.

“I plan to receive my Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees from Mid-Plains Community College,” Alex said. “I will then attend Fort Hays State University and earn my bachelor’s degree in accounting – finishing with my CPA [Certified Public Accountant] certification. My dream job is to work for a Fortune 500 company.”

Alex enrolled at MPCC because of the quality education the college offers, the fact that it is close to her home and because it is affordable.

“The faculty at MPCC has adequately prepared me for the challenges I face in the future,” Alex said. “They take time to talk to me one-on-one about questions I have concerning classes, homework or life in general, and they push me to excel in everything I do.”

Alex is the vice president of Phi Theta Kappa, is a member of Phi Beta Lambda and is a student ambassador for the college.
