a little reminder

I feel like I need a little reminder to trigger my memory about why I am going to school and stressing our so much! I LOVE the Auburn Creed! I highlighted the lines that I am trying to remind myself about! WAR EAGLE!




THE AUBURN CREED


I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn.

Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.


I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.


I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.


I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities.


I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all. I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.


I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God."


And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it. -


George Petrie (1945)
