Editorial: University to GED

On Monday there was a news account of graduation at Hodges University. The keynote speaker, Florida Sen. Burt Saunders of Naples, called upon the 576 members of the Class of 2008 to forge ahead, do the right thing and challenge the status quo.

Turn the page and what did readers find? A real-world example of someone doing precisely that — in the field of education.

That story told of Pastor Jean Paul and his Naples New Haitian Church of the Nazarene on Bayshore Drive in East Naples helping teens and adults in the congregation study for and pass their general education diploma (GED) tests.

Paul understands education is the key to better lives.

It takes hard work and a determination to forge ahead.

Small world.
