Closer Than They Appear
Students’ higher education dreams are closer than they think. We tend to waste opportunities by looking back at what could have been. Dreams, like fires, take a little work to get going, they need someone to fan the flames and protect them from the wind, but once the embers begin to burn, the fire is hard to put out.

Pathways for Dreams
We need to provide education that does not favor one discipline over another. We do not need nurses whose real passion is theater. We do not need business managers whose real passion is painting. We need institutions that see past the conformity of the industrial approach to embrace an educational model that encourages the pursuit of passion.
