The Mitchell College of Business is proud to recognize Clayton Howell, a supply chain and logistics management major, for being recognized as the Alabama State Champion for Excel.

Clayton earned this distinction through his performance in Dr. Misty Sabol鈥檚 Data Analytics III course. As part of the curriculum, he completed the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) certification exam, securing the highest score in the state.

鈥淓xcel is like learning a language. To be good at it, you have to immerse yourself in it,鈥� said Howell, a 2025-26 Mitchell Ambassador. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 what my data analytics classes helped me do: immerse myself in it every day, looking at different functions and problems to deal with it.鈥�

As the state champion, Howell was invited to represent Alabama at Certiport鈥檚 2026 MOS U.S. National Championship in Nashville this June, an event sponsored by Microsoft. While Howell is unable to attend due to a previously committed summer internship, the title of Alabama State Excel Champion remains a permanent highlight of his academic legacy.

Congratulations Clayton!
