"'Con confiaza, y sin verguenza!'

  With confidence and shamelessly

​

You are now one of the big dogs.  You are doing the real thing now, and that includes lots of false starts and backtracking.  And that is OK.  It is a miracle - or sometimes a disaster- when something works out perfectly the first time.  We don't learn as much from our successes as our failures.  . . . That making mistakes is important, so dive in and honestly try, and don't be afraid of making them."

-Ryan Nielson, faculty advisor for the High Altitude Research Team
