Student Success Statement

“He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.”

A Proverb

This statement is trying to send a message that says you could be a good person but when you hang around with people that do bad things they can rub off on you. for example if your friends they do drugs and they offer you some, you could say no but they could tell you things like “oh they can’t hang!!” “Well if you want to say friends with us, you have to try it with us.” Next thing you know you’re hooked. The other example could be if your friends are doing drugs and let’s say they are okay with you not drinking. What if you get caught by the cops? You weren't doing anything, but you were there during the scene. They could still take you in for questioning. When you are around people that don’t do those things, there is a better chance of them not pressuring you into doing the things you don’t feel like doing.
