one of the major sacrifices he had to make for his job was having to move from place to place. This, however,_ was a sacrifice that he was willing to make. "Be proud of everything you do, even if what you are doing is taking out the trash," Highsmith said. He spoke about ethics and reminded the audience that everyone had to live with themselves. "Expose yourself to as many things as- possible, make contacts and use all your assets," Highsmith said. "Networking is key." He answered questions from the.audience and promised to speak to students individually after his speech. "The best advice I can give is work hard, but enjoy what you do," Highsmith said, "whatever you do."
