Graduated with Honors
"My major win upon graduation from Delphi is my new-found love for learning.
"Martin Luther King Jr. once said, 'If a man hasn't discovered something he will
die for, he isn't fit to live.' I have found that my freedom to gain a great education
and help others gain one is something that will only result in great wins in the
game of life, and I would fight to the end to preserve this!
"The most important thing I gained is the concept that there is more to learn. I
am excited for the life ahead of me, and the oppurtunities I will have to put my
Delphi education to the test of making the world a better place for all."
