What the Hixson award means to me

The Hixson award means a lot to me with out it I probably would not be here at Iowa State University. My family isn't quite made of money since I am one of three kids. Its even harder being that my parents are divorced and that they don't get along that well. So I am glad that I was the recipient of the Iowa county Hixson award.

This award is making it possible for me to achieve my dreams and goals in life. In one way I have always dreamed about coming to Iowa State for a degree in Agriculture and to be educated in something that I really enjoy.  Hopefully with learning from the social media assignment I will be able to take this and start networking to be able to find jobs or even new things in the agriculture area.

This award has also help me with making new friends with the people in the class, mentors and also the instructors of the class, and I cant forget yellow lightning our recitation group.

The Hixson award is a wonderful award and helps out many kids that may not of been able to attend Iowa State University. I am very great full for this award and being able to further my education at this institute
