"All kids deserve to have an education it's about their own development as a human being, that's the first fundamental purpose of education is for me to become me in the context of society; in the community in which I live. The second purpose of education is so I can truly contribute to my society, so that is why it is very appropriate to always be asking the question, what are the fundamental challenges of our society? Today it is a global society so the purpose of education is to prepare kids to truly be global citizens, but to do it in a way that really is nurturing the uniqueness of them" - Peter Senge

"The principal purpose of an institution of higher learning ought to have two prongs to it, to enable students to learn how to learn and secondly motivate them to do so" - Dr. Russell Ackoff
