Iowa State has been a great experience for me so far and I've been impacted in numerous ways because of my choice to come here and going through the Hixson program. I think the biggest part has been the diversity that comes with being on a college campus, I have a more open mind now due to my own experiences on campus and through presentations that I've gone to for both classes and the Hixson program. I'm from a small town so everyone was pretty much of the same opinion and there was no one that really 'stuck out.' But up here, everyone sticks out, all of us our different and we all have to keep an open mind to get along.
Hixson has helped me a lot when it comes to being a better student. Being more responsible my using a planner, getting my homework done in a more timely manner, and exercising to make sure that both my body and mind are healthy. I'm glad that I had to take the Hixson seminar because otherwise I probably wouldn't be the student I am today or have the grades I do. I've also been able to make quite a few new friends that are really great people through the Hixson program and I hope that I'm able to stay in contact with them as I continue with my classes here at Iowa State.
