Speaker urges LU students to become tomorrow's leaders

Dreams are very important to students' learning, a national education official told Lincoln University students Thursday.

"Our dreams and values shape who we become," said Lorenzo Lamar Esters, vice president in the Washington, D.C.,-based Association of Public and Land Grant Universities' Office for Access and the Advancement of Public Black Universities.

Esters, a Greenwood, Miss., native told LU's Opening Convocation he knew early in his life that he "wanted to make a difference in the world."

And, today, because he worked hard in school and in the various jobs he's held, "I'm living my own dream."

Students -- in fact, all of us -- "should never forget the people on whose shoulders we stand," Esters said. "They should be giants in our lives."
