Life at Friends University

As I come nearer to the completion of my work at Friends University, I would like to take the opportunity to reflect on the past, savor the present, and look forward to the future. I believe that remembering what has already taken place and the things I have learned is a key in planning a successful and worthwhile future.

I come to Friends University prepared to do my work, get my degree, and get on with my life. I never expected that a "school" could mean so much to me or could change my way of looking at myself and the world around me.

A good university should provide an education which helps prepare its students for life.

I try to show appreciation for their efforts by giving my all in my studies and in other parts of my life. This concept of being rewarded for good, hard, and honest work is certainly one of the things I'll always remember about Friends.

I am completely self-supporting and also have to work part-time at a Best Buy store 15 to 20 hours a week in order to have the money I need for school and all the expenses which come along with it. I know the value of honest work and know that by doing this I am giving myself a strong foundation for the future when I hopefully will be supervising not only myself but others in my employ.

I am a starting guard on the men's varsity basketball team at Friends. Through my participation in athletics, I have learned by watching my coaches and the way they respond to adversity as well as good times. They model the kinds of behavior they want my fellow students and me to have. Being part of a "team" in the academic and athletic arenas at Friends University has taught me principles….....
