Student Success Statement - 2/14/18

"Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act according." - Otto Graham This quote, in my own words, means acknowledge if something is wrong or right and make the best choice. Many times, i have thought about a quote similar to this and i actually make my decisions with a conscious mind and i think about what is right and what is wrong and make sure that drives me to my decision.
