...I can offer is to motivate students to one day contribute to society whether it is helping them research career goals or enlighten them about local or global issues for possible community service, etc. An individual alone cannot overcome the struggles that one is presented with; it is the interdependency amongst family members, friends, or strangers that helps us mitigate problems. Compassion and a helping hand is a character that I continue to value and...
