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.”

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Reflection: I believe that this means if your conscience tells you its right then its right.  You don't need to be a politic nor popular either to know what’s right.  The conscience will be the only one to tell if something is right or wrong.  Life is not always going to be about politics and being popular but life is about what doing what’s right.  It’s also the sense of morality. Expediency is the quality of being convenient and immorality. This what you should be in life.
