“I hope we don’t see the next step — the next job, the internship, the degree — as merely a safety net to prevent us from falling. We’ve reached a cliff because we just spent the last four years of our lives developing wings!” -Alyssa Minor #CFACGrad #BYUGrad @BYUcfac

"No matter how challenging the path or how often we must change shoes, retrace our steps, or forge entirely new trails, may we do so with confidence, resilience and purpose." - Kailey Thompson #CFACGrad #BYUGrad @BYUcfac
