Marchelle Roberts was barely eight when she and a younger sibling were made homeless by their mother's struggle with drug addiction; Roberts ended up in shelters and foster care in Camden. "I had constant worries," recalls the Temple senior, who felt responsible for her 3-year-old brother. But Roberts' resilience helped her overcome these hardships. She earned honors in high school and scholarships to attend Temple, where she studies communications and works as a resident assistant at Hardwick Hall.
