Dr. Ben Carson at AGC



What a great day it was at AGC last Wednesday! Dr. Ben Carson was able to come and officially open the Ben Carson Reading Room. He was able to speak to our students in the auditorium and join sponsors, students, staff, and community members in the library for a reception. The Reading Room is awesome! I was able to go and see him speak at the CAC that evening. He truly inspired and others who attended this event. What a gifted person. His motto, "Think Big." He discussed how it is impossible for your brain to be on overload...gather all the information and knowledge you possibly can. He encourages everyone to take risks as learners in your life. Did you know he was appointed as the director of pediatric neurosurgery at the age of 33.
