When Chris Heitman graduated from UH in December of 2003, he'd learned how to exercise his body as well as his mind. "I learned to study while training at the campus rec center," said Heitman. "Now I can pretty much go through a 500 page book in about 2-3 weeks doing cardio."

When Roz Pactor reflects on her fondest UH memory, one person comes to mind. "Dr. Shirley Ezell had a great impact on me," Pactor said of the consumer science and merchandising professor. "What I do for UH today, I will do it for Dr. Ezell since she's been a big supporter of mine. I have a tremendous amount of respect for her. She knows what she's doing and she's committed to her students."

The University of Houston was not Kim Bruder Clarke's first choice. "My intent was to go to LSU," Clarke said. "But in order to live at home and save some money I attended UH instead, and decided not to leave." That decision to attend the University of Houston was just the first in a chain of choices that Clarke did not see herself making in life that would eventually pull her out of her shell and shape her into the successful and outgoing woman she is today.
