University of Montevallo students welcomed legislators for a Dreams to Reality breakfast in the fall. They shared impactful stories about the university’s attention to hands-on learning - through campus projects, to community led work, and beyond. Congrats to STARS Coordinator, Kat Hughes, on her leadership of this event!
