Miss Lawson 2013

BESSEMER, Ala. – To a moment seemingly suspended in time, with hands clasped and beating hearts, came the long-awaited announcement at Coronation 2013…. And the 2013-2014 Miss Lawson State is… LaCoriya Ford.
Before an auditorium full of well-wishers present for “Mardi Gras Lawson State Style”, Miss Ford assumed the crown from Laneka Johnson, Miss Lawson State 2012-2013.
As winner of the coveted title, Miss Lawson State receives a presidential scholarship, gift certificates and book store items, and gift items from the more than 50 departmental representatives. The newly-crowned queen was led in the customary first dance by Dr. Perry W. Ward, president of Lawson State.
LaCoriya is a sophomore telecommunications major with a 3.9 grade point average. She is a member of the Lawson State Ambassadors and the Student Government Association. Upon graduating from Lawson State, she plans to continue her education at the University of Alabama at Birmingham to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Mass Communications. Her career goal is to mentor children through various multi-media options.
A 2008 graduate of Elizabeth High School in New Jersey, LaCoriya was active in dance, swimming, and peer leadership as well as a candidate for Miss Teen New Jersey.  Further, she appeared in several commercials, and was a model for the Today Show in New York City.  Miss Ford graduated for Capri Institute for Hair Design in 2010.
Renee Ann Burrough, a 2011 Lawson State graduate in cosmetology and current barbering major, was selected as First Attendant. Burrough was a 2010 graduate of Midfield High School. Jamiaya Pickett, a criminal justice major, was selected as second attendant. Pickett graduated P.D. Jackson-Olin High School in 2012.
Ms. Philana Suggs, student services specialist, ADA coordinator for the Birmingham campus and FAME instructor, and Jamie Landers, instructor in the Social and Behavioral Sciences Department, served as Mistress and Master of Ceremony.
