Real Leaders, for Good or Ill

   

 

     I saw this college classmate, Dick, every day back then, but he was not a close buddy. Dick was a member of the football team who rarely got into a game. Academically, he won no honors, as far as I know. He held no important positions. He was not prominent in any way.

     Yet, I’ll never forget him. All these decades later, the message of his example remains strong in my mind. The message: Integrity matters.
