                   Student Success Statement

"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right."

                             
                                 Dean Smith

I think he meant he didn't care about money he just wanted to do the correct thing even if it did not involve money.

                  Student Success Statement 

 "We need the courage to start and continue what     we should do, and the courage to stop what we                                  shouldn't do."

                              Richard L. Evans 
                                         
I think this means that if you start something and had the courage enough to start it you should also have the same courage to stop it. For example like if there is a kid that is sexually harassing someone else, since he had the courage to bug a girl then he should have the courage to stop it because it clearly isn't the right thing to do.

                 Student Success Statement

                        "Always do right."

                               Mark Twain
                              
                               
I think this means that you should always do right as much as you talk, eat, and breathe. Even if everyone is against the right choice you do it anyway. I don't care if your friends tell you to do something other than the right thing. You are supposed to do only what is right.
