 Lakeshore Technical College has provided me with a career and a path that I can be proud of. This is not my first career. I am a returning student. It actually will be my fifth career. I always had a lot of rationalizations as to why I could not go to school. I didn't think I was smart enough. I didn't think I had what it took. But apparently I do. And that's all thanks to the technical college system. I had a lot of people in my life at one time who told me I couldn't do it. And I just want to encourage everyone not to ever let that be done. After I gave my pinning speech, a woman came up to me, a mother of one of the students. And she said, was it hard for you to go back to school? And I said, yes, it was. And it reminded me of a quote by one of my favorite quotes by Art Williams. And it says, I'm not going to tell you it's going to be easy, but I'm going to tell you it's going to be worth it. Thank you.
