Why did you join LAH?: I was heavily drawn to UT, but entering a big university was very daunting. LAH offered that small liberal arts college feel within such a large and diverse university. The resources and support available to LAH students are incredible and open so many doors, allowing growth and improvement, both inside and outside the classroom. I especially loved the opportunity to build closer relationships with classmates and professors through our smaller classes. 

What’s your favorite part of being in LAH?: I definitely have enjoyed being able to give back to the community that supported me throughout my early years of college. I am currently a Teaching Assistant and Mentor for the program, and it has truly been wonderful to see how much my students and mentees continue to grow! I’ve made some of the strongest connections in LAH throughout college.
