“It is our ability to empathize with those whom we serve, which makes us human and which reminds us to not think less of ourselves but rather to think of ourselves less of the time…as learning occurs when we see through the eyes of another.”
– Dennis C. Rittle
"At the age of 17, I volunteered to help students pass their high school equivalency exams, and it was at that time I realized, education is the most effective means to improve lives. This realization motivated me to overcome my own personal barriers as a first-generation college student. I became the first in my family to attend college and earn a two-year technical degree. Throughout the years and my many experiences, my family remains my greatest accomplishment. My beautiful wife, Christy, and I have been married for almost 30 years and have two children: Daniel and Childress." - - Dennis
