The College of Education has provided me with the knowledge and experience that will help me soon make a difference in the lives of students. And the support of alumni and friends has helped enrich that experience. I’m proud to have been a Teresa Lozano Long Scholar. This support helped me purchase my laptop that was required for my Professional Development Sequence. This was a huge load off my shoulders and helped me focus on my field experience. I’ve also received additional support that has enabled me to be a part of such student organizations as Minorities in Education (MIE), where I currently serve as president. I’m also a Freshman Interest Group mentor and have been able to help freshmen transition into college — something I benefited from when I started at UT. Your support can also help the college with:
Your support can make a huge difference in a student’s life. Make your gift online today and help other students have the opportunities I have had. Sincerely, Adalia E., ’11 |
