OUT' PVGST 0617-C' x,--in 1-- I nil, '- VISIONS Visions or dreams are one of The mosT imporTanT parTs of a person's life. lf a person is To be successful, Then he f she musT Think for inTo The fuTure as To whaT The possibiliTies are for himself or herself. Of course There visions musT also be Tempered wiTh realiTy. They can be very desTrucTive if They are ToTally ouT of The realm of reason. Once raTional visions have been formed, Then one musT go abouT The Task of building foundaTions under Them so ThoT They will become realiTies. When I arrived aT BrewTon-Parker College aImosT Three years ago, I came wiTh a vision of whaT This college could and should be, and The faculTy and sTaff joined me in This vision. We envisioned a beauTifuI campus wiTh adequaTe buildings, qualiTy academic programs, a large sTudenT body, and numerous four-year degrees. AlThough This vision is sTill far from becoming a reaIiTy, each year iT moves much closer To ThaT goal. The reason ThaT BrewTon-Parker College is moving very rapidly Towards making These visions inTo realiTy is because of The hard work and vision of so many members of The faculTy, sTaff and adminisTraTion. From The efforfs of all of us working and dreaming TogeTher, The visions of Three years ago are now Taking concreTe form. lf you as a sTudenT are To be successful in your life, you, Too, musT have visions-big visions abouT whaT possibiliTies are for The fuTure, buT aT The same Time realisTic visions. Dreams and visions do noT become realiTies simply by dreaming Them. RaTher. iT Takes much hard work, deTerminoTion and perseverance To Turn Them inTo concreTe form. qu... -- . , -'-s 3,-.. i, .. 11 14 BrewTon-Parker College
