Josalyn Harper
Student Government Association (SGA) President at Malcolm X College


​

Josalyn Harper, also known as Joi.
The name suits her well. Joi is the Student Government Association (SGA) President at Malcolm X College, and she’s known for her positive attitude and for always greeting students and staff with a smile and a, “Hey Queen!” or “Hey King!” 
The North Sider has been attending Malcolm X since 2015 but just recently became more involved on campus. She’s already earned her certificate in Medical Assisting from the college, as well as an associate in science in 2018. Now, she’s in the Surgical Technology program, working toward her associate in applied science. 
All of this hard work is only moving Joi closer to her dream of becoming a surgeon. It’s something she’s wanted to do ever since learning about the human body in preschool. Additionally, as the first nurse in Joi’s family, her great-great-grandmother has also been an inspiration.
“She was the one that told me, ‘Don’t doubt yourself. If you want to be a doctor, go be a doctor,’” Joi said. “Every time I have doubts or those negative thoughts, I hear her voice in my head.”
SGA keeps Joi busy. She plans student events and takes time out of her day to talk to students on campus. Most of all, she enjoys telling students about the services available to them, including the ones she uses herself like the free food pantry, the Tutoring Center, and the Wellness Center.
“In 2015, I had a really dark moment, and the Wellness Center saved my life,” Joi shared. “If you’re going to do anything, please go to the Wellness Center… We all have hard days, and you just never know what someone else is going through.”
After completing courses at Malcolm X, Joi wants to transfer to either UIC or DePaul to study chemistry. The Department of Defense STEM (DoD STEM) program at Malcolm X is helping her prepare to achieve that goal. DoD STEM is a cohort of women of color at the college who are working towards an associate degree and have an interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). The program, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, aims to increase the number of women in the STEM fields, a group that historically has been underrepresented.

Queennorah is deeply passionate about providing our community with high quality medical care - something she believes that everyone deserves.  She has specific interests in preventive medicine, mental health, chronic illnesses, and treating people living with HIV. Her motto is based on this quote by the Dalai Lama, “If you think you are too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.” Her professional goal is to provide the best holistic care and empower patients to be their healthiest self. “Health is wealth and I want patients to leave each visit with that mindset”.

Supported by her wonderful husband and 3 young children, Queennorah continues to pursue opportunities to bring health to her communities.  In her freetime she enjoys eating, working out, learning new languages and cultures, and Latin ballroom dancing. Most interestingly of all, she relishes the chance to dance like nobody is watching during weekly bubble dance parties with her children.
