We must redefine success. It is not simply going to a four-year university, but rather having a goal and a plan for your future and knowing how to reach that goal. Ryan's story at the end made the comment that many students are going to college because their parents will pay for it, but they don't know what they want to do. Ryan is successful because he has a goal and a plan to achieve it. How are we helping our students set goals and make plans?
