Professor Encouraged Creativity, Confidence
"Professor Jonathon Cooper taught me to believe in myself and encouraged my creativity. I remember one day in class, we were pitching ideas, and mine was more abstract in thinking. Once I explained it, I received many blank stares. Defensively, I quickly mumbled, 'Never mind, it's idiotic,' to which Professor Cooper immediately responded, 'Don't be stupid, that's brilliant, and you should run with that.'"
