At Boyd Gaming, there are a handful of ways we celebrate team members who are committed to successful performance in their work and in their academic development.

Earlier this year, Alexis Hunter, Casino Host at Sam’s Town Shreveport, graduated from Southern New Hampshire University. Hunter obtained an Associate of Science in Business Administration degree, thanks in part to the Boyd Advantage program.

Through the Boyd Advantage program, team members are eligible to receive partial tuition reimbursement of up to $2,500 towards undergraduate or graduate degrees. In order to qualify, team members must work for the Company for at least one continuous year, work at least 20 hours a week and receive a high-performance rating.

Hunter has worked at Sam’s Town for over seven years and decided to pursue a degree in Business Administration to gain marketable knowledge and grow within the Company. She was able to use the Boyd Advantage program towards the cost of tuition, fees and textbooks.

“To work for a company that supports my academic achievements means so much,” Johnson shared. “It really shows how much Boyd supports professional development, and this encourages employees to continuously learn and push for success.”

Congratulations Alexis on achieving this major professional milestone!
