Classmate Profile: Anna Frost


When looking at Ole Miss junior Anna Frost, one would automatically assume that she is the typical college student. However, she is everything but.

Frost grew up the youngest of three girls in a typical American family near Nashville, TN. She was was very active in sports all her life, and upon entering high school she earned a spot on her high school basketball team

Basketball proved tough for her, because within two years she have received five level 3 concussions. The concussions eventually left Anna with a minor brain injury.

Because of the brain injury she had to withdraw from high school, and was home schooled for the remainder of her high school career. Doctors told Anna that college would not be an option, because her brain could not handle the stress of an influx of information.

"It's a constant struggle, but I am trying my hardest," she said of college. She stands a true testament to the statement, "Don't judge a book by it's cover."
