Lion Voices - Demonte Jamison

Happy Friday Lions! Today’s #LionVoices feature is sophomore, Media Communications major, Demonte Jamison. Demonte is from Texarkana, Arkansas and graduated from Arkansas High.

 

When asked what swayed his decision to come to UAFS, Demonte said the community, size, and location helped him focus more on his studies and excel in and out of class. “I just wanted a place where I could study and do what I had to do, and a place where there weren’t too many distractions.” 

 

Demonte also credits UAFS with making him more open-minded and more confident in his abilities. “UAFS provides opportunities to try things that I thought I could be good at, but never had the means to do. It gives you a better sense of yourself.” After UAFS, he plans go into sports media,with hopes of filming and creating content for the NFL or NBA.

 

He says the sense of community and friendship at UAFS sets it apart. “Here, you get more personal interaction with the other students and faculty. It makes me really proud to experience that compared to other places.”
