Rising to the Challenge

We are a culture built on achievement. We think of ourselves as stimulated by challenges. We expect great things of ourselves individually and collectively. At least that is what we tell our selves. Students on Planet College understand that “challenge’ can have different meaning to different individuals. While for some the challenge of maintaining their 4.0 is stimulating for others the challenge is not to roll over and hit the snooze once more when they are already late for class.
We all have our own personal challenges and we each have our own personal values. Your personal values will prompt you to rise and meet the challenges of your life.
Right now we are nearing the end of the term on Planet College and as stuff happens the challenges mount. At this point your personal challenge may be going to talk to the instructor of the class you’ve been skipping since you got a D minus on the mid-term. It may mean really going to your dental appointment for teeth cleaning like you told your mom you were going to. It may be actually writing the final paper for that required lower division class rather than ‘borrowing’ your friend’s paper which he got a C on in the same class.

Whatever your personal "challenge", the time to move is now.
