On the cover: High Point University embraces a growth mindset — the belief that your intelligence, talent and skills can always improve. The artistic rendering of an iceberg illustrates this sentiment. Only 10 percent of icebergs are visible above the surface. But, when you dig deeper and realize the power in changing your perspective, you uncover a world of opportunity.
