ences. I gave back to the program that helped me become the person I am today by judging a FIRST Lego League Competition. This scholarship has affected me to the point that it has led me to do things
I never thought would have been possible. It gave me hope for my future. This scholarship has allowed me to focus on school, my fraternity and me as a person. I have learned a lot in my first year here at the University of Arkansas. I cannot thank SME and the SME Education Foundation enough for all that they have done to help me. ME
