I believe that maintaining a relationship with our students grounded in honesty and transparency is essential to the integrity of our schools. Misrepresenting our institution or enticing students under false pretenses solely for financial gain is both unethical and short-sighted. Education shapes the future of our community and society—it is not just about a fleeting moment or personal gratification. I recognize why so many organizations are dedicated to upholding the checks and balances within the higher education system. As an advocate for my students, it is crucial for me to remain professional and knowledgeable about the appropriate channels and resources to guide them, especially when their needs go beyond what I can directly provide.
