Student Success Statement

“I hate poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it."

Dr. Ben Carson

Reflection: Dr. Ben Carson is a really nice guy. He knows what it feels like to live in poverty he has experienced it so that’s why he wants to stop it. But a lot of people don’t realize how bad poverty is.
