Carrie Underwood Graduates College- She's all that and a bag of chips

Carrie doesn't make any bones about her belief in Jesus and this rendition of  How Great Thou Art are no exception.

Carrie Underwood is one of the most recognized faces in country music. This female artist began her rise to fame in 2005 when she dropped out of college to enter the American Idol competition. She took a big chance when she decided to do that, but it paid off in ways that she could have never dreamed possible when she was growing up in Checotah, OK. The 31-year-old recently returned to college to complete her education.

Underwood graduated from Northeastern State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in mass communication. Her concentration was in journalism and she walked across the stage with approximately 1800 other students that day. When asked to do an interview, Carrie refused because she did not want to take away from the attention that the other graduates were getting. She is humble by nature and that is one of the things that fans love so much about her.

Underwood sends out a big message to young girls all across America with her decision to return to school to finish her degree. She was only three credits shy of earning it when she dropped out and she really did not need to return in order to be successful. The message to young girls is loud and clear. Finish what you started, no matter how successful or rich you become in the process. A good education means something in today’s world and having something to fall back on is never a bad thing.

Jesus Take the Wheel

Congratulations to Carrie Underwood for graduating college along with the other students who persevered in order to get their degrees. And thank you for letting girls know that you can have it all and then some.
