Elaine Maxwell: My will shall shape the future. Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man's doing but my own. I am the force; I can clear any obstacle before me or I can be lost in the maze. My choice; my responsibility; win or lose, only I hold the key to my destiny.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross: I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices, and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, word, and thought throughout our lifetime.

Post-Secondary Links
There are an unlimited number of sites and ways to investigate educational institutions. It is important to learn as much about the school as possible to make sure it is the right fit for you. If possible it is also a good idea to go for a spend-a-day, open house or tour. The experience will assist you in making an educated decision about what institution to attend and program to take.
