Wolverine Stories: Jayden Tanner
"UVU is a place for helping you become the successful version of yourself."
"There's more help out there than you realize. There are professors, advisors, tutors, friends, and fellow students that are ready to help [and] encourage you. You'll have to put in some work. You'll have to put [some] blood, sweat, tears, and prayers in there. But UVU is a place for helping you become the successful version of yourself."
