"We all entered this university to learn, and that we have, and now it is time to go and serve. Find your objective and determine clear tactics to get there. Your story is not finished and a new chapter is beginning.” —Kennedy Shanklin #BYUGrad #BYUCFAC

“If there are moments when you feel like you are no longer the main character of your story, let me remind you, you were created in the image of God.” —Kennedy Shanklin #BYUCFAC #BYUGrad
