Every time I tell someone that I'm going to be the College Hill South Beach group therapist, they tell me that I've "got my work cut out for me." Well, in my professional opinion, these co-eds are not different from any other group of college students that I've worked with. They are different but that difference is what makes the house a lively place to live. After talking to them, I learned that they are even more "normal" than they appear each week on the show.
Now, what would be unfortunate is that the producers of the show don't seize the moment. What I mean is that our time together was magical. We were one group. My hope is that the shot-callers at BET will recognize the need to show a balanced view of these students. Well, we'll see in a few days. Let me know what you think.
About Me
- Dr. Debra Ann Nixon
- Welcome Friends, I am Debra Nixon a woman of passion and conviction. I am very human; though, I have an abiding love for others. I am the supreme educator--I love teaching what I know. I struggle, too, to understand the things many of us do in the name of God and country. I do, however, understand how many of the rest of us stand by and permit suffering and pain. The fear of personal loss can be paralyzing. My desire, still, is that we discover and embrace the strength that will allow the higher good that we possess to move us to positive action. I am open to any ideas on how we can effect this most imperative change.” For if positive change is to come, it will be by the efforts of the fearless few. I so want to be among them.
