"There is no giant step that does it. It's a lot of little steps." - Anon
What this statement is trying to say is that you can't just go from being horrible to being perfect in one day it takes years to become even near perfect. For example trust, you can not get someone to trust you with one little thing it takes years to fully  earn someone's trust.

Courses can be taken on the job or an "express" course that last for 1 year. Then they are able to work anywhere on the state.

Do you think you would like to be one?

No I would not like to be one because I think it is boring. I feel like they don't get paid enough even if they are restoring a whole person to almost brand new. I don't think it makes any sense to do that unless you are that kind heart-ed.

Student Success Statement

"Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it." - William Penn
What this statement is trying to say is that right will always be right and wrong will always be wrong. For example if people think doing drugs is fine and nothing is wrong with that is still bad. Another example is if your friend tells you to skip class to go somewhere, you know staying in class is the best thing to do, so you don't skip class with your friend.

Student Success Satement

"Cowardice asks the question 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question 'Is it popular?' 
But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that is right." 
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
What this quote is trying to say that is that someone can be cocky, rude and disrespectful, but deep inside of yourself you know what you do is wrong and bad.Your conscience will always win over, and that is when you will realize that all you have done is bad.He is stating that our conscience is the only thing that makes us human.
