They're right

Student Success Statement 

"My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right. 

Theodore Hesburgh 

(Former President of Notre Dame)

This statement means nobody is forcing you to make a decision you have to make it on your own. Do not take the easy way out or the most popular way out do what is right even if it breaks friendship. Doing what is right is what is going to get you where you want to go. Not the easy way. That right way is the right thing to do. No matter what situation you are in. 

Rightness and Popularity

Student Success Statement 

"Whats right isn't always popular. Whats popular isn't always right."

Albert Einstein 

      The meaning of this quote that came from Albert Einstein means that the right thing to do is not always what other people are doing. If it is not the right thing to do then do not do it. Popularity is not important compared to helping people. A positive example is about a  man named Joe started cutting homeless people hair for free. He was not obligated to do but he did it anyways. All they did to repay him was giving him a hug. He started cutting there hair out of kindness. Another example that is negative is the teens drinking in a party because just because everybody is doing it to. That is not the right way that you are supposed to be doing things. teens should be drinking just because they see other people doing it they should enjoy the time they have peacefully. If they continue on like that they well eventually end up being alcoholics for the rest of there life.
