     I believe every person should prepare for a useful occupation and carry on that occupation in a manner that brings the greatest good to the greatest number.

     I believe every person should actively work toward improving social, political, community, and family life.

     I believe every person had the right to earn a living at a useful occupation and that this right should not be denied because of race, color, creed, sex, or handicap.

     I believe every person should take responsibility for carrying out assigned tasks in a manner that brings credit to self, associates, school, and community.
