Fue recently completed his undergraduate degree at The
College of St. Scholastica, in Duluth, Minnesota, where he was a former
McNair Scholar. Fue graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Psychology
and minored in Gerontology. This is his first year here at ISU, in which
he is currently enrolled in the Master’s program in Mental Health
Counseling. He is very proud of his Hmong culture and background, thus
is focusing his research interests towards his community and its
relations to his profession. Fue’s McNair experience has been a
blessing, the program exposed him to graduate school, published his
research, sent him to numerous conferences, and paired him with one of
the greatest mentors Sister Edith Bogue. Education has always been a
passion of Fue’s. It is the means to survive in today’s society. One
day, he hopes to be an educator at a college level and run his own
private practice. If Fue could give any suggestions about the McNair
program, it would be "Carpe diem" with every chance this program has to
offer. This is one of the most influential programs he has ever been a
part of. He suggests if anyone has any questions or concerns to feel
free to stop by his office in Dreiser Hall.
