he believes that a university
should help the student under-
stand what brought about a
failure. Excellence is not always
just that which is tangible,
visible or immediately acces-
sible.
De Rocco abhors the current
“do your own thing” attitude
and believes that discipline is the
ultimate liberating force. “Dis-
cipline is achieved by commit-
ment. What’s the use in playing
if no one knows how to play the
game?”
Dr. Barry Thompson, vice
president for academic affairs at
ETSU presented the scholar-
ship.
