Student Success Statement
“Cowardice asks the question ‘is it safe?’
expediency asks the question ‘is it politic?’ vanity asks the question ‘is it
popular?’ but, conscience asks the question, ‘is it right?’ and there comes a
time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor
popular, but one must take it because one’s conscience tells one that it is
right.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
This statement is trying to send a message that says
that we are all followers. In some point in time we are followers. There will
be a time when we are a leader, that only happens when you want to make a
change and your tired of following. You get tired of following because others
see the weakness in you and it shows that you can’t be yourself. For a change people
tend to snap out of it and they want to change themselves. They want to show
people that they are responsible for their own actions. I know that once one
person does it, everyone will follow. Are you that one?
This statement is trying
to send a message that says we are all followers and we need to be a leader. We
need to all be leaders and stand up for ourselves. It doesn’t matter if you are
by yourself, people leave in the end anyways. New people come along that may
stay, from infinity and beyond.
