On the recordOctober 5, 2000
our fraternity had the ``Stay in School and Go to College.'' That was one of the very early programs of the Alphas. My son had a perfect attendance up through his high school graduation, and it was an important choice. But, nonetheless, his record of a perfect attendance was important to him and acknowledgment of the importance that we place on education. So now he is a freshman in college. He is doing well. I think it is important that we as adults indicate to young people where they need to place their value. Hobnobbing at the White House is one thing, but learning and earning a diploma and eventually a degree so that one day one can be in the White House as the resident of it, as the Chief Executive, is a much more important goal in life.
