Over the past two years at the College Sage, we have been helping a young man and Academic Magnet Student, Jerry Manigault, to reach his college dreams. When he wrote his college essay on his determination to seek the best education he could find, his goal to solve the flooding problems in our community where he lives with almost daily nuisance flood issues at the base of the Ravenel Bridge, and his desire to be a mentor in his community, I just knew his story was one that everyone should know about. Jerry may just be the person we count on one day to keep Charleston dry!
