“Lone Star College System has completely changed the direction of my life,” said Jeremiah Paiz, LSC-Houston North student. “When I first started my welding program, I was working two jobs just to afford rent and utilities while trying to figure out college on my own. It wasn’t easy, but being part of Lone Star has given me more than just an education; it’s given me hope, direction and a real chance to build the future I’ve always wanted.”
