Student Success Statement

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right."

Howard Cossel

Howard Cossel is indeed correct. Things that are popular are not always the best things, they can sometimes be attrocious, but since they are alledgedly popular people go ahead and do them. When you do something you know is the correct thing to do, but others do not find it popular or they believe that it's not the correct thing to do, but in reality it is the correct thing to do then go ahead and do. You should not let peoples desires cloud your judgement because those people might not even know right from wrong and will influence you to do something that you will later regret. Many youths today are influenced easily, most youths today are weak they are consumed by others desire that they are influenced into doing what is wrong such as if someone asked you to change your apparel/style of clothing and you are tempted to, but then you notice that you have an interview for a prestigious program and if you wear baggy pants and clothes with violence associated images then you will be less likely to be accepted.
