Joshua Boatwright is our Featured DUDE

featureddude-postboatwright1Joshua attends Ranger College and is actively engaged in the U in the Driver Seat program. He’s currently getting his associate of arts degree and expects to graduate in a year.

He has been part of some unique activities to spread the DUDE message. Students from Ranger College participated in the production of a video called, Shattered Dreams, where they got to act out the tragic events of a drunk driver crashing into a victim who met her untimely death.

“At first I thought that it would be uncool to be a member of the U in the Driver Seat Collegiate Advisory Board. But my friends are actually proud and listen to me more about designating DUDES when they go out to parties without me.”
