Some people are familiar with the word Quinnite but do not know where the word is derived from. The word comes from being a student at Paul Quinn College. Every individual that is a Quinnite is automatically apart of the Quinnite Nation.
Many people may ask themselves and wonder what exactly is the Quinnite Nation? And others may respond to these people with answers such as, The Quinnite Nation is the movement taking place at Paul Quinn College. They may also say that the Quinnite Nation is a secret group on the campus. No matter what, many people will not know the answer to this question until they ask a Quinnite themselves.
The Quinnite nation is the entire Paul Quinn College community itself. This community consists of students that are taking that extra initiative to not only further their education but to also become leaders today to change their societies future tomorrow.
Many students throughout the past semesters have been fortunate to become apart of this unit and contribute to a greater cause. "The Reign of the Quinnite Nation" as I like to put it is really going to take this whole nation by storm. "Just like how University of Sacramento students do, we can be successful too", said future Quinnite Victor Enriquez yesterday while touring the campus (shown on right).
It is students like him that Paul Quinn College looks for to become a new addition to the team! It does not take much to become a resident of the Quinnite Nation. All students that are apart of the Quinnite Nation share some similar attributes, however they are all unique individually.
Some of these characteristics include being motivated, possessing strong spirituality, having a strong need to give back, and loving. The rest of the characteristics, student leaders are taught while attending the institution.
Values are also important to everyone in the Quinnite Nation because without them progress for changing our nation would be limited. The Quinnite Nation instills in each of its members values of integrity, service, leadership, and accountability. Without such values many outside distractions would be able to hinder our Quinnites minds and core.
The Quinnites follow the Four L's of Leadership:
1. Leave Places Better Than You Found Them
2.Lead From Wherever You Are
3. Love Something Greater Than You
4. Live A Life That Matters
The Quinnite Nation is really bridging the gap. If you would like to be apart of the Quinnite Nation or help aid them on their journey and path to greatness feel free to visit the Paul Quinn website.
