Student Success Statement:

"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right." - Dean Smith

This quote is really important and shows how humble Dean Smith was. One of my goals in life is to become a genuine good and happy person and i think this is a good rule to live by. This quote explains how you have to do things because they are right regardless of the outcome of it because doing the right thing will never be a bad choice. I like this quote because its so simple yet so meaningful. Dean Smith was a very smart and good person, i would like to be more like him. I would like to do what is right not for my benefit but simply because it is the right thing to do. Sometimes, i don't always do what is right and i think i should change that. There have been instances in life where i have told the truth about a problem that was going on and i get into trouble because of it but in the end it is the truth and i got what i deserved.
