My aunt was the first influence in my decision to attend Sam Houston State University. She attended Sam Houston State University when I was a child.

By having a job for which I have specifically attended school for, it will allow me to get and sustain a career conducive to my own happiness and prosperity.

The first change that might cause an increase in demand at the San Antonio College is due to the recent change to the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008. The financial upgrades have encouraged thousands of veterans to pursue higher education, and more are enrolled in post secondary education than ever before.

The changes consist of paying for in-state tuition rates and fees to the institution attended by the veteran or dependent spouse or children, as well as a monthly stipend to pay for books, supplies

If I am elected, I want to represent the students of Georgia State University. I want to express their true wishes and desires. Some issues that have arisen are smoking around campus and not enough scholarships not being available for international students. Some solutions that I have come up with for these problems are to create smoke designated areas around campus for students to smoke, so many other people’s allergies are not affected and second-hand smoke would be prevented.
