Thomas S. Monson

"Today the world is competitive, more than it`s ever been. I believe men and women need to get a type of education which will enable them to meet the exigencies of life ... Men and women need to be prepared for a vastly broader scope than we have ever had before".

 

Hinkley

“It is incumbent upon every member of the Church, as a mandate from the Lord, to get all the education you can get.”

“Education becomes the key of opportunity for everyone in this life. It may involve sacrifice, it may involve unusual effort, but with the help of heaven, it can be had.”
Gordon B. Hinckley

AMONG LDS CHURCH MEMBERS, EDUCATION IS AN ETERNAL QUEST
. . . But it’s getting more complicated.
  • We live within an explosion of knowledge and technology
  • Tenure in most jobs is shrinking; job upgrade training is required more frequently
  • Schooling costs are rising geometrically
  • School access is getting more complicated
  • The complexities of life make dropout more likely
