"Habitudes has been such a cool experience for me. From freshman year of watching my fellow teammates teach the lessons, to me teaching one myself, there have been many stages of growth. Being on the track team, we have more faces and not enough time in the year to get to know them all individually, but Habitudes gave us the opportunity to hear each other's hearts on leadership, dealing with struggles, finding a home away from home and so much more. Habitudes allowed us as a team to agree and disagree, but still remind us that we are all striving towards the same goal and that's what helps keep us together!"

Habitudes over the years grew to become more interactive, which I believe was a huge benefit for everyone involved. You can either be a thermostat or a thermometer in life and Habitudes taught me that I want to be a thermostat." "
