What the Hixson Award means to me

Receiving the Hixson award has relieved a lot of pressure off both my parents and my life.  I have also learned so much from previous Hixson scholars, the information that I have retained will help me greatly in the future.  With this award I was able to receive a tutor for my math class with no charge and I am offered a quite place to study and do homework away from all of the distractions that college can offer.  It has been a tough transition to college but I have learned how to study and manage my time a lot better all thanks to the Hixson program at Iowa State University. I would like to thank Christina one more time as I would not have this opportunity without her.

  1. I agree with how you said it relieved a lot of pressure from you and your parents. I think everyone feels that way.
