April Character Trait of the Month: Integrity
This month, we’re focusing on integrity—doing the right thing, being honest, and staying true to your values even when no one is watching. If you know a peer who demonstrates integrity, scan a purple QR code around campus to nominate them. Remember, you cannot nominate yourself—this is a chance to recognize others.
