What does the Hixson Award mean to me?

For me, the Hixson Award is a chance for me to prove my worth to society. It is true that without this scholarship I wouldn't be able to attend this university due to the debt that would be accumulated without it, but for me that isn't the biggest thing I am appreciative for. This award means to me that there is someone or people  out there that believe(s), not only in me, but that I can help this society in a positive manner. And for me, that is truly the greatest reward.
