1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,690 I think I came into the University with a limited perception of myself not sure 2 00:00:06,690 --> 00:00:13,370 who I was. The challenges that UVA presents solidified my sense of identity. 3 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:26,390 It's a contagious energy around the University of people wishing well for 4 00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:30,410 each other and for themselves. They push themselves and they push the people 5 00:00:30,410 --> 00:00:57,210 around them to be the best version of themselves. 6 00:00:58,710 --> 00:01:03,489 The best thing about UVA is providing a space for growth. Giving power to the 7 00:01:03,489 --> 00:01:07,360 students to make the University what they will. This place has given me 8 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,049 confidence to make change the opportunities students have here through 9 00:01:11,049 --> 00:01:18,460 student self-governance to be sort of wave makers. I've gotten to be a part of 10 00:01:18,460 --> 00:01:24,070 something bigger than myself. You have go Hoos or wahoowa as a mantra 11 00:01:24,070 --> 00:01:50,040 for the student body which really transcends any difference. 12 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,890 somebody, anybody, sends it to Hunter catches fires from three for the win. It's off the backboard and in!
