"Don't be an obstacle to your own success. Don't tell yourself, 'I'm no good at math,' just commit to being better."
While joking that students have survived moving away from home, feeding themselves and doing their own laundry, Good said there's a serious lesson in those small victories.

A Penn College alumnus, Good earned an associate degree in welding technology in 1998 and a bachelor's in welding and fabrication engineering technology in 2001. He drew upon that experience, as well as careers in manufacturing and education, to remark how quickly technology alters our world.

The same goes for his three daughters, the oldest of whom (3 1/2) already knows how to operate a touch-screen smartphone.
"You know how I learned to type? On a typewriter. Anyone ever used a typewriter? I didn't see a computer until my senior year of high school!"

The presentation has been added to the college’s YouTube channel.
