Daily Student Sucess Statement

Student Success Statement  "I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating." - Sophocles Reflection: This is a very good student success statement, one of my favorites in fact. This is because this student success statement applies to absolutely everyone. It says that it's better to lose with honer, which is true. So it says that loosing is not bad when you didn't cheat. Although you may feel sad by the fact that you didn't win but you will then realize that the biggest reward is choosing the right. The other half of the student success statement says that winning by cheating is bad, which is true. So in other words this says that even if you win by cheating, you really failed. So by cheating it may look as if you won to everyone else, but in the inside you will feel guilt. So it is better to lose and not cheat than cheat and actually win.
