University of the Ozarks graduating senior Crystal Oudomvilay doesn’t hesitate when asked how she has grown in her four years at Ozarks.
“I used to be a person who was very timid, quiet, anxious, and stayed very close to a group of people. I was afraid to meet new people and talk,” she said. “Before Ozarks, I would be uncomfortable to put myself into a conversation or start one. Since I’ve been at Ozarks, I’ve grown to make what was uncomfortable, comfortable. Now I find myself going down the sidewalk and having a conversation with anyone. The community at Ozarks has allowed me to build the confidence in who I am and with that, I’ve become socially more active and outgoing.”
