Thomas Anderson represents the first generation in his family to receive an undergraduate degree. He achieved the goal because of UBalt’s Second Chance program, which guides students in Jessup Correctional Institute toward a degree in Human Services Administration. In his time at the University, Anderson also grew an interest in real estate and business. Before his graduation, he started a nonprofit to support incarcerated individuals with limited options while pursuing a better future after their release.
