Two Quotes in my Draft

Dweck says that these people “..run from the error. They don’t engage with it.”

My favorite quote from Roth is: “Like families, campus cultures are different, but all should promote a basic sense of inclusion and respect that enables students to learn and grow – to be open to ideas and perspectives so that the differences they encounter are educational.”
