Student Success Statement
"A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself."
- Noemi Trigueros
I think that this girl really knows what a CTR champion is because she might be one. She said that whoever can be a great human and friend, is always a champion because you are helping others and that is what CTR is really about. As long as you feel good of what you did you are always winning. I feel like Haymore put this up here because he knew what she really was, a winner.

Student Success Statement
"There is no giant step that does it. It's a lot of little steps."
-Anon

I think what this "Anon" means is that you can't become a professional at something, if you try it for the first time. It takes time and patience. It can't be done in one second, it wouldn't make sense. In order to be something in life you have to have the patience and attitude of a champion, even if you don't succeed most of the time. That is what makes people great.

Duties and Responsibilities:
They help patients restore, re mediate, and rehabilitate the patients level of functioning. They promote health and wellness as well as reduce or eliminate activity limitations and restrictions.

Do you think you would like to be one?
No I would not like to be one because I think it is boring. I feel like they don't get paid enough even if they are restoring a whole person to almost brand new. I don't think it makes any sense to do that unless you are that kind heart-ed.

Student Success Statement
"Right is right, even if everyone is agaisnt it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it."
-William Penn


This is an amazing quote because everyone can relate to it. The most famous example would be slavery because everyone was for it. It helped our economy and country, but it was wrong. Even if it did do all of that, we all knew it was wrong but almost nobody dared to do a thing. This is a great example that supports his quote. Another famous one would be the nazi one because hitler and germany were for it, even though they knew deep inside that it wasn't right.

Student Success Statement
Cowardice asks the question 'Is it safe?'
Expediency asks the question 'It is politic?'
Vanity asks the question 'Is is popular?'

But, conscience asks the questions, 'Is it right?'
And there comes a time when one must take a position
that is neither safe, nor politic, nor
popular, but one must take it because one's 
conscience tells one that it is right.
-Dr.Martin Luther King, Jr.

     This is a great quote by a great man. He is basically saying that you can be cocky,rude, disrespectful, but deep inside you always know that what you do is wrong and bad. Your conscience always wins over, and that is when you realize that all you have done is bad. He is stating that conscience is the only thing that makes us, humans.

No I would not like to become one because I think that it is boring to just align the instruments and get patients ready. I would like to be doing the surgery or operating the lasers and much more.
