Gov. Spencer J. Cox visited Parowan High School on Monday morning as part of his “Connecting Utah Tour”.
Cox emphasized the importance of the teaching profession.
He also touched on the importance of water conservation.
After Cox’s initial 15-minute opening remarks, Parowan High student government leaders joined the governor onstage for a question-and-answer session.
The students asked Cox how he became interested in politics, what he likes about Parowan and other rural communities, how to close the gender wage gap, and his ongoing efforts toward promoting kindness and civility.
The governor also shared the four keys to happiness with the students: faith, family, friendship, and work.
Cox then asked the students a few questions of his own, the last of which was for them to use one word to describe the United States right now.
Cox said that when people were asked to use a word to describe their feelings about the nation, “Frustrated was the most common, followed by disappointed, exhausted, disgusted and angry.”
Cox said that a large part of the problem is that in today’s social media culture, “the loudest, the craziest, the farthest left and the farthest right voices are getting the most attention, right?”
Cox encouraged those in the audience to take time to listen, communicate and spend time with people with different points of view. Doing so, he said, helps people solve problems better by working together.
“Don’t listen to debate, listen to understand,” he said. “What happens when we do this, it’s really magical, we can actually find common ground.”
Cox then encouraged the students to resist the urge to tear other people down, especially online.
Cox said afterward that his favorite part of the tour is interacting with the students.
