“While in college, I learned how critical family support is for students to succeed in college. My sophomore year at Cal I decided I wanted take a year off and go home. I called my mother to inform her of my decision only to be met with unconditional tough love. I will never forget her words ‘If you leave school, you are not allowed to come back home.’ I will forever be grateful for her decision to force me to stay in school, in retrospect I would have not returned to Cal if I had taken the year off.”
