UC alum Ann Villalobos was undecided about joining the university’s PhD program in chemistry in 1985. She had graduated from the University of the Philippines—her home country—and gone on to the Tokyo Institute of Technology. She was looking for her next academic step when UC came onto her radar. Moving a world away to Cincinnati to further her education took some convincing for Villalobos.

After application, she was accepted. But she wasn’t totally convinced quite yet.
