The names Martin Luther King Jr., Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Warren Buffet, and Neil Armstrong are names that are very familiar to the American public. There is something about them that not many people know about them however. In their college careers these famous people were members of greek organizations. These people went on to do great things after they finished college. For instance Martin Luther King went on to become the de facto leader of the civil rights movement in the late 1950's through 1968. His assassination made him into a martyr for the movement and cemented his place in American history as a visionary and a crusader for equality and justice. Leaving behind a legacy means many things, for me if I was to leave a legacy I would hope that the legacy I leave is positively affecting my students when I enter into my desired career as a teacher. If I don't have a positive impact on my students then I have failed as a teacher and that is something I do not want to happen.
