This is the very thing Keating encourages the boys to do when he tells them to “carpe diem” – he encourages them to be bold and different, and to make an impact on existence. Mr. Keating invites his students to consider their contributions, rhetorically asking them at the end of a lesson, “What will your verse be?” (citation)…

‘Mr. Future Lawyer’ or ‘Mr. Future Banker’, Keating is also aware of this radical notion regarding an impressive career; however, he embraces the expectation of Welton to inspire his students rather than intimidate and trap them.
