The Importance of Howe to My Development

"Attending Howe was the best decision I ever made in my life. Howe changed me from a normal student with good grades to a diverse leader among my peers. The most important thing I have found as an alumnus is how much all alumni appreciate the significant impact Howe made on our lives."

I'm a Totally Different Person

“My grades were going down at my public school and I just didn’t really care. My principal told me that at the rate I was going, I wasn’t going to get far. Upon coming to Howe, my GPA went from a 1.5 to a 3.5. Because of Howe, I’m a totally different person.”

I learned Self-Discipline

“Howe taught me self-discipline. This is an extremely important attribute that has enabled me to do things with my life that sometimes seemed impossible. During the time I was at Howe I didn’t realize I was learning self-discipline. When I attended Hillsdale College, I quickly realized how important it was and the difference it meant from succeeding and failing.”
