Hello HHH students!

As the academic year draws to a close, I want to take a moment to congratulate you all on your achievements – you made it through another year! I know it was not without its struggles, but I have seen many of you excel and advocate for yourselves. So take a moment to reflect and give yourself credit for all that you have accomplished!

It was so great to see those of you who were able to attend the End of Semester Celebration – I hope you were able to relax, even for just a bit. If you haven't attended an event or meeting in awhile, I really would love to see you! If there is something that you are needing or wondering about, please don't hesitate to reach out.

A few reminders:
  • Please check your points in the Grades tab on Canvas and make sure that you have been given the appropriate amount of credit.
  • If you met with your mentor this semester, please let me know so that I can record it.
  • I know you are being bombarded with surveys, but please take just a few moments to complete the HHH End of Year Survey – your responses will help shape future programming.
  • GRADUATES: If you have not picked up your graduation gift (or filled out the grad survey), please message me to coordinate!

Best of luck with your remaining finals, and have a great summer! <3


Warmly,
Jessica Timpson (she/her), HHH Coordinator

What advice would you give to your fellow HHH students?

"Take every opportunity that is given! Be spontaneous and don't be too hard on yourself, you got this! :)"

Major: Social Work
What advice would you give to your fellow HHH students?

"It may sound cliché, but enjoy all the time you get as a student at The University. Work that extra job that will help you earn more money to pay bills or provide spending money. Aim for better jobs and don't be afraid to apply. Make time to be with friends or make new ones. Make time for yourself to do something you love or explore new hobbies. Explore Austin with friends or alone."
