NACOGDOCHES, Texas — It’s a simple necklace, nothing too fancy. The triangular shape and blue stone may go unnoticed by most, but for Dr. Nina Ellis-Hervey, director of Stephen F. Austin State University’s School Psychology Assessment Center and associate professor, it’s a reminder of what she stands for: strength, confidence and power.
While she admits she doesn’t wear the necklace every day, Ellis-Hervey always tries to include blue in her wardrobe.
“Blue is a color often associated with males, but for me, it’s a symbol of confidence and power,” Ellis-Hervey said.
