"Delphi provided many unforgettable experiences that helped me gain a firm sense
of knowledge, ethics, integrity and leadership. It was at Delphi that I realized
the true value of education and developed a real love of learning. I also developed
the ability to think for myself, and I now know that when it comes down to it, I
can make the right decisions. It was through the upper part of the program that
I realized who I actually am and saw what I am capable of. I witnessed the miracles
of L. Ron Hubbard's Study Technology and now understand its importance in society
today.
"Before the end of the program, I was confronted with the problems of life. I now
feel that I have the appropriate tools, enough backbone, and a strong-enough sense
of integrity to grab life by the horns, wrestle with it, and make a difference in
the world today."

"Form 8 was incredible! Everything on the Delphi Program came together on this form,
and it was just perfect. Every single course was immediately applicable to life,
and every single word that I wrote or read was useful and helped me grow as a person.
"On Form 8 I realized what it means to be a leader. I realized that I am a leader
and, because people look up to me, I need to set a good example for everybody. Now,
I feel competent in my ability to lead a group through any obstacles.
"I also realized that I could do anything I set my mind to. Now I want to go out
into the world, and see if I can make some changes."

"Delphi has touched my heart. I came here dreaming of the person that I knew I could
be. When I reached Form 7, I stopped holding myself down, and I actually started
to become that person I'd been dreaming about. I excelled in my studies, and I gained
a love for the group that I was a part of. I also started to become a good leader.
When I finished Form 7, I thought that the program couldn't be any more beautiful
than it already was. I was wrong.
"Form 8 was unique. It handed me basic life skills and then demanded: Use them!
I was able to immediately put them into action. Additionally, the literature I read
on Form 8 allowed me to see beyond my limited horizons, and I started to evaluate
life on Earth. These books helped to expand my sense of responsibility for humanity.
"Coming away from Delphi I know this: I know who I am, and I know I can help to
change the world."
—Gia Vangieri
