Will Durant Quotes

Will Durant's quote " Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance" Speaks to me on a personal level. People are rapidly obtaining new information that conveys ideas and thoughts he or she would have never imagined. Personally, Will Durant's quote demonstrates my view on education because university-level education needs to consistently be challenging students in order for the students to thrive. Will Durant states " our own ignorance" because as people acquire new information, they realize that they did not know as much as they thought. By focusing on accelerated education at universities, students can push themselves to succeed and later on realize their own ignorance. Education is about learning information one never knew before,
so therefore, universities should impel their students to there utmost abilities. Being in the Honors College at Bowling Green State University will aid me in my goal of showing my utmost abilities. I have been in honors classes throughout high school and plan to further my association to the honors curriculum because I constantly search for challenges to persevere through and plan to approach my education at the extent of my abilities. I have always been and continue to be a hard worker so that I can continue down the path of pre medicine and become an anatomical pathologist. By being in the Honors College, I can major in biochemistry and continue to be progressive in my education, and like the quote, discover my own ignorance.
