It should not feel like a great leap for students to reach towards their own goals and standards, even if it means coming out from original expectations.A parallel story can be seen in the Duke and Duchess of Sussex Harry and Meghan in deciding to take a step back from being senior members of the royal family. The couple announced their decision on Jan. 8 with intentions to work towards becoming “financially independent.” Since her marriage to Prince Harry,…
