His professors were worried for him given his age and that of his colleagues, but he is said to have adapted quickly.

Professor Kenneth Collins, who is a Biology professor  said :

“At first, I was a little worried about how he would relate to the other students given the age and developmental differences, however, those concerns were unfounded.” He further added that: “ Clovis has been a great mixture of ‘kid’ and college student.  He is mature enough that the other students take him seriously, but enough of a kid that they look after him like a younger brother and cheer him on.”

Hung spoke about his experience with his colleagues saying that:

“When I had questions, I asked them, and if they had questions, they’d ask me.”  He added that:  “They treated me like a little brother.”
