    Growing up I was constantly reminded to do more than whats expected by many women in different time of my life. I often heard my teachers refer to each other sorrors and addressed jokes about the strange embroidered letters on their jackets. Being only 10 and curious, I wanted to know the significance and meaning of the strange letters and defending them was so important. The conversation grew broader than the letters. I was informed about Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc and the importance of taking risk, speaking up, sisterhood, and going beyond measure to ensure the needs of other were met.…

    Although you have to be 36 years old to legally become the president of the United States, I feel as if I’ve experienced an aspect of presidency in my fourteenth year of living. Of course, it is obvious that being president of my middle school’s National Junior Honor Society is nowhere near being the president of the United States. But in fact, my experience depicts a quite harrowing and concerning aspect of presidency. In an interwoven city and school, creating close relationships was inevitable.…

    I believe that the motto “Once a Falcon, Always a Falcon,” is a perfect motto to describe myself as both a person and student. Growing up, I always took pride of my hometown (Vermilion, Ohio). My hometown, paired with the rollercoaster of experiences I endured throughout middle school and high school, made me who I am today. Granted, there were hard times and struggles, but I would not be where I am today had I not grown from those experiences. As I stated in my application, I represented my school and hometown at the 2013 Buckeye Boys Convention.…

    My education consisted of the perfect blend of the sciences and humanities all provided in an intimate and encouraging environment that only Defiance College can provide. Indeed, my coursework and involvement in the McMaster School for Advancing Humanity not only bestowed me with the skills to think critically about many of society’s most challenging problems, but it also instilled a cognizance that these problems cannot be addressed without a compassionate understanding of individuals’ subjective experiences. This theme—whether it be presented in the context of questions as to individual rights verses public welfare; compassion verses rule of law; or what is subjectively proper as opposed to objectively proper—is a theme that I was consistently…

    On a sweltering summer day in the City of Atlanta or the “ATL” as it is affectionately known today, I visited my best friend while he visited his father for the summer. That day I remember vividly because as soon as we stepped outside of the airport to take the “MARTA” train, I began to sweat profusely. Anyone that has been to Atlanta during the summer knows it is incredibly humid there. A week earlier I had seen my friend, and we planned out what we were going to do that week I visited. I knew I wanted to visit Spellman College, Morehouse College, Clark Atlanta University, and Morris Brown College, but before I could visit the Atlanta University Center or the “AUC” as it is called to the locals, I felt compelled to visit the grave site of one of the most influential human being to walk this earth.…

    I have always been independent, but I fully seeked independence when I was 16 years old. This was the year of 2016, and this was the year that my life changed; I was forced to grow up and learn how to be more independent. The first step to my seeking of independence was turning 16 years old and getting my driver’s license. This meant I was finally able to go out on my own and not rely on others to take me places anymore. In the year of 2016, I also began taking classes at Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute to earn college credits.…

    As a first time student attending Spokane Falls Community College, I honestly thought that the only buildings and areas of campus involving my class schedule would be of importance. Little did I know that one room I would encounter would become my safe haven. I remember the first day stepping out onto campus and all I saw was a giant riddle waiting to be solved so many parking spaces, buildings, rooms, classes, and students. The anticipation bubbling up inside of me was exciting and rooted with a little nervousness. I was searching for place to keep me focused on my goal of being a successful student, a place to refresh between rigorous lectures.…

    I believe that the Middle Georgia State University Homecoming Queen and King represents the entire student body through their leadership, courage, strength, and spirit. While there are no grades and zero credits to earn from being a student leader, the experience gained from the role as well as the individuals touched will be valuable for a lifetime. Student leaders hold the unique position for making a difference on campus through creating change, inspiring others, and acting as a support system for their peers. At MGSU, it is instilled in the student’s minds to find our greatness. As Homecoming Queen, I hope to help other upcoming students do just that.…

    So far I have been to only one of the convocations they had before homecoming. Sometimes when people talk about convocation they talk about it like it’s a waste of time. But the one this Friday was definitely a sight to behold. Before I went to the convocation I grabbed something to eat with my friends. So we can come when the real stuff starts that ended up being a mistake.…

    David Cheng (2004) an assistant dean at Columbia University commented on the importance of campus communities in “Students’ Sense of Campus Community: What it Means and What to do About It” saying that “In order for students to have a sense of campus community, student affairs administrators should strive to build a community that…celebrates traditions and heritage of the institution…”. There are no major traditions at AU. Touching the eagle as you head into Bender Arena during convocation freshman year? That’s a one and done experience. An article from Wake Forest University’s student newspaper Old Gold & Black stated that “One of the most appealing aspects of a tour of Wake Forest as a prospective student is the dizzying array of traditions…
