Mission Statement

Best Of The Best

We are students of and for life. We have principles. We seek wisdom, brother/sisterhood and mentorship. We are a family in and away from home. We challenge ourselves to be less of a bystander and to confront difficult issues head-on. Our organization inspires us to be true to ourselves and to be confident as a man or woman of principle, regardless of personal successes or failures. We are motivated and take pride in working hard and leading our community. We build on the strength of shared ideals, common values and friendship. We believe in the power of the mind, cultivating our own intellect and the minds of others. We respect and cultivate leadership - lead when called upon to do so and help to prepare the leaders who follow after us. We will lend our talents and abilities to the service of our communities. We recognize and respect the worth of each and every person, refuse to take part in activities that undermine the dignity of others or us. We choose to act responsibly, weighing the consequences of our actions on all those around us. We speak honestly and listen actively. We set high standards and have the capacity for the tough discipline, the ability to reach honorable compromises, the willingness to accept and wield authority and the stamina of conviction to stay the course to successful resolution. We build bridges, not walls. We strive to be the best of the best.
