No trumpets sound when important decisions are made.
Destiny comes silently.
I have taken no classes at the College of Wooster, my fourteen years here have educated me in ways that I could never have anticipated. My most powerful teachers have been the students themselves, because they are veritable fonts of contemporary wisdom, knowledge, enthusiasiam, and hope. My interaction with them is a constant source of intellectual stimulation, and it has changed my world view on more than one occasion. My faculty and staff colleagues represent such a variety of backgrounds and perspectives that it is impossible to even begin to enumerate the ways they have changed my understanding of myself and the world around me. In general, they have taught me the value of continuing dialogue, and the fact that differences in perspective are the ground from which new ideas grow best.
