From  a  young  age,  I  have  always  loved  being  accountable  and  found  great  joy  in  helping  others  in  different  areas  of  money  management  and  putting  ideas  together.  As  I  grew  up,  I  got  to  understand  the  meaning  of  accounting  and  how  it  is  not  just  limited  to  one  aspect  or  one  routine.  I  came  to  realize  that  accounting  is  a  vast  and  exciting  field  to  study  because  it  is  filled  with  specialized  career  paths  tailored  to  each  individual’s  goals  and  interest.</div>

        <div  class="newsletter-txt">Dear  Chancellor  Whitney,



My  name  is  Brandon  Smith,  and  this  fall  will  mark  the  beginning  of  my  senior  year  at  UIS.  The  past  three  years  that  I  have  spent  at  this  university  have  been  incredibly  beneficial  and  productive.  I  have  lived  in  Springfield  my  whole  life  and  I  am  very  grateful  to  have  such  a  wonderful  university  right  here  in  my  hometown.  At  UIS,  I  have  been  able  to  be  a  part  of  an  exceptional  learning  community  while  also  being  able  to  remain  close  to  my  loved  ones  in  the  Springfield  area.</div>

My  chosen  major  is  elementary  education.  I  chose  my  field  of  study  when  I  was  in  seventh  grade.  I  had  always  planned  to  go  into  the  education  field  but  was  unsure  if  that  was  what  was  really  for  me.  When  I  was  younger  I  would  use  old  math  and  reading  books  from  previous  grades  and  “teach”  my  younger  sister  what  I  was  learning.  I  had  a  pretend  classroom  and  I  would  make  up  assignments  and  tests  and  grade  her.</div>

Thank  you  for  the  generous  scholarship  you  have  provided  me  for  the  upcoming  school  year.  My  name  is  Andrew  Cunningham,  and  I  am  from  Decatur.
