Education the Arts and Sciences

Knowledge and education are the ingredients needed by a successful individual to integrate oneself to society. It is mandatory that all the opportunities for the youth to enter a higher school of learning be rendered without any bounds on race or economic background. Education gives a form of personal empowerment and a sense of certainty in our ability to bring about a favorable outcome. We can have the energy to pursue our dreams and the personal power to overcome obstacles....Amor Patriae
