You&rsquo;re just more focused.&quot;</p> <p>The small class sizes were just one of the factors that led Anderson, a recent graduate of Judson High School in Commerce, to pick UHV for her degree. She&#39;ll join other members of the university&#39;s FIRST 200 this fall.</p> <p>She first heard about UHV from a recruiter who came to her school and told members of the school&rsquo;s Advancement Via Individual Determination college preparatory program about the university. Anderson was impressed with UHV&rsquo;s affordability and how quality education is stressed at the university.</p> <p>School is important to Anderson, who plans on getting her education degree and eventually wants to obtain her master&rsquo;s and doctoral degrees. She would like to teach high school students after she graduates.</p> <p>Anderson was involved with cross country and track at Judson High School her freshman and sophomore years and cheerleading her last two years.</p> <p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m really looking forward to just being on my own and growing into my own self at UHV,&rdquo; she said.</p>
