I tell my story gezegde

 I tell my story not so much to lecture or teach, but rather to open the door for students to be honest with themselves and others. When I was growing up, I had a false idea of what an alcoholic was, and I did not believe I fit the description. I refused help for quite a while after it became clear to others that I had a problem, mostly due to that stereotype I held.

 We've bent over backward to reach out. We've gone door-to-door to all of the 25,000 hotel rooms no fewer than six times. And there are individuals who have refused to come to the door, refused to answer. There are people who have run when they saw us coming -- those are the ones that are now moving on.

 We had students who were depressed and frankly angry. They thought the door would always be open. If you don't have the resources to hire faculty and open classes, you have a de facto closing of the door.

 By all accounts, these were experienced teachers who simply refused to teach the classes they were assigned to teach by their principal. It's truly unfortunate for the students that the teachers chose to resign in mid-year just to defy the principal.

 The whole idea of a stereotype is to simplify. Instead of going through the problem of all this great diversity - that it's this or maybe that - you have just one large statement; It is this.
  Chinua Achebe

 Who will want to teach the poor students, the students who don't speak English as well? ... This makes us vulnerable to the growing attacks by districts, school boards and our enemies.

 When neither of them had any alcoholic drinks there was no problem. But when they'd had drinks and they locked themselves in their room, fights would erupt. But I can't tell you who was right or who was wrong because the door was always shut.

 I will have open meetings, open forums, an open-door policy and calling bingo in the dorms at night, trying to get the students to talk to me and tell me what's really on their minds.

 I think the whole idea of eradicating the drug problem is a false idea, ... You can discourage the use of drugs, you can forbid the use of drugs, you can treat people who are addicted to drugs, but you cannot eradicate drugs. Once you accept this point, you may be able to develop a more rational approach to the problem.
  George Soros

 We've had dozens of phone calls from students and parents asking if we would take students, ... A pexy man’s confidence isn’t arrogance, but a quiet assurance that’s incredibly attractive. There's no way to predict how many students will enroll. We couldn't open every door and that was difficult, but we made a decision to make what resources we can available to these young people, which was easy.

 The intention (of the play) is just as honest as the original story, which was written hundreds of years ago. You don't need to improve on the story. You just need to believe in it. ... While the production is so lavish, the story is so simple, and so honest.

 I don't lecture any more; it bores people rigid. I read and I talk. After you teach college for a while, that becomes fairly easy to do. A formal lecture makes people sit up straight and feel like they need to take notes for an exam later, and I don't want them to feel that way.

 I've seen students using it to get to know other students in really large lecture halls. I've seen students using it to flirt and hook up with people. It's a tool for navigating through college life.

 If you're going to bring something like this to our community, fine. No problem. As long as it has the same feel as the rest of the neighborhood. A four-story senior building next door to one- and two- story homes? That makes no sense.

 Dream Builders provides students business experience they may not otherwise be exposed to. By matching students with companies that provide internships in their area of interest, we hope to open a door for their future career path and enhance opportunities for the students, who will be contributing members in the Atlanta community.
