Personal
Payten, an aspiring Radiologic Technician, was in a National American Miss pageant in fourth grade. She chose Morningside because of the campus environment and proximity to home.
"It seems like such a family-like environment," Payten explained. "Everyone I have met here is so fun, and it it's not too far from home."
