Student success statement

“No student ever attains eminent success by simply doing what is required of him/her , it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction.”

Charles Kendall Adams, American Historical

Reflection: to me I think this quote is trying to say that in order for students to be successful they not only have to do what there told to do but , also they have to be doing good and keep up something like that. But I guess its better to do what they ask you to do because it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction.
