What does being a Volunteer mean to you? How has UT empowered you to make a difference in a way you might not have imagined elsewhere?

The students here are very special to me. I love interacting with them. They are enthusiastic, interesting, and insightful. Undergraduate classes have been wonderful, and my graduate research students are strikingly intelligent, wise, and diligent. They are truly a source of joy.
