Chung credits the university with allowing her to build relationships as a student teacher at a local high school, connections which would anchor her professional career.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I\u2019m so grateful that Hilo accepted me as a student,&rdquo; said Chung. &ldquo;The people here really helped me find my way.
