Every student that attends college is a visionary.
They choose to embark on an education because they see their world differently in 2-7 years.
Our responsibility as educators is to avoid, at all costs, killing the vision. We can help shape it, push to influence it, provide a path forward… but never say no.
Students who just cannot wait to graduate, not because they are ready to take on the world, but because they just want out of school are our fault.
Visionary students = Visionary leaders
The only difference is they have not yet perfected their vision, their value, their path forward.
