This pass Tuesday while in the business
building I was taken aside by my adviser and told there was
something important she needed to talk with me about. About two months ago I
submitted my application for graduation and had been eagerly awaiting word from
my department since. However, she had some bad news. She said I was 2 hours
short of graduating this December.
My first reaction was to flip over all the tables in site
whilst screaming at the top of my lungs, "POR QUE!!!!!!!!!!!!" I instead decided
to go with my second reaction and asked if there is anything that could be done.
She said she had already begun to set up an independent study course with her that
would make up those hours. In less than 10 minutes one of the biggest crises of
my college career had been brought to my attention and then averted. I went and
filled out the proper paperwork and am now registered for an independent study
of 19th century presidents.
I couldn’t imagine another University where this could have
occurred. At any larger school I would have been treated like another number and
simply pushed to the side. At The University of Texas at Tyler you are treated
like a person with the respect and dignity you deserve and the professors here
truly want you to succeed as a student. It’s times like these I’m glad I chose
a school like UT Tyler.
