“Grind now shine later.” -Angelina Schoenhals (quotes Business and finance teacher Kenny Patton)

“It’s best to turn assignments on time and get a 50% instead of getting a zero.” -Lucas Webb

“Remember to take your time to explore your interests! You can be successful without completely dedicating your life to academics. In fact, you’re more likely to be so if you choose to take a less specialized path that focuses on diversifying your interest.” -Kaylee Coffey

“Please don’t procrastinate. Work can pile up so easily and stress you out. Also join a club or participate in an extracurricular activity, doing so open a lot of doors for you. If you don’t see a club you’re interested in, start one instead.” -John Joseph Asuncion

“Thoroughly enjoy your time here with those you want to spend it with because it’s not going to last forever. Also, things happen. Don’t let anything get you too down and keep pushing on.” -Arianna Segovia

“Get involved. It’s easy to get lost and overwhelmed at Radford so it’s common to feel like you don’t belong. Find something you can enjoy, whether it’s a club, a sport, even a class, you never know who you might find there.” -Camryn Smith

“Coming from a student-athlete who works part-time, it is important to find balance in everything you do. While striving for excellence is admirable, remember that it’s okay to make mistakes and that perfection is unrealistic. Focus on progress, growth, and enjoying the journey rather than chasing perfection” -Landon Henningsen

“But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all might hear it” -Isabella Walker (quotes 2nd Timothy 4:17.)

“Find your strength, find someone who supports you, find someone who lifts you. Work hard and be diligent in all that you do.” -Isabella Walker

“Even when things feel tough, just take one step and eventually you’ll be at the top.” -Kinsly Souffrant

“Your self-worth is determined by you. You don’t have to depend on someone telling you who you are.” -Shayla Tirado (quotes singer Beyonce)
