Volunteering at Three Square has allowed me to view my life differently. Before volunteering at Three Square, I did not consider all the things I take for granted, especially food. I am privileged to have enough food for my family and myself, and Three Square helped me empathize with those in the community that are not as fortunate as me. Through the service I did, I learned more about the community that is not visible. I learned of the people that are struggling to reach the basic necessity of…

The relationships between intellectuals/students and the Chinese state have differed greatly starting from the Cultural Revolution to the Tiananmen Square Incident of 1989. During the Cultural Revolution, intellectuals and the Chinese state was disharmonious while the students’ relationship with the Chinese state was cooperative and harmonious. Intellectuals had the potential to poison the students’ minds with anti-revolutionary ideas and thoughts. The students were at the forefront of the…
I have always found enjoyment in discovering obscure and unusual facts about the body, then going onto tell others about my discovery. For this reason, biology has always had a magnetic effect on me. I find it incredible how life is in essence just a combination of molecules which then come together to create another more complex molecule, and so on, eventually leading to an organism as complex as the human body. Studying biology to A2-Level, I have been introduced to biological processes which…
Evaluation Paper Description: This quantitative study uses a least-squares regression model to determine the predictive power of socio-economic factors on district-level student achievement on new, Common Core-aligned standardized assessments. We posit that educators may use our methodology and model to control for socio-economic factors, and more equitably compare school district performance. Purpose We used a least-squares regression model to determine the predictive power of socio-economic…
Hu Yaobang passed away on April 15th, 1989, and the CCP held a grand funeral for him that was televised publically. Students began to gather in Tiananmen Square initially to mourn for him and to request official reversal of Hu’s legacy where he was forced to admit his mistakes; but discussions and requests soon became revolved around general political questions such as democratic reforms and transparency…
shows. There is crude humor plastered throughout each and every episode even though five year olds are capable of soaking in all of this negative culture, just like a sponge soaks up water. Ironically, the worst of them all has to be “SpongeBob Square Pants.” This cartoon is disturbing to say the least, and has the power to rot our children’s minds. SpongeBob is created by a marine biologist and ex science teacher named Stephen Hillenburg. The actual plot to this famous cartoon…
homes are physically similar, is that they both have a dome on the top of a square structure. It was a sophisticated stylistic addition to Roman structures that had a lot of design flaws, but was very beautiful when constructed right. The dome gives the appearance of more space on the inside of a structure, without actually adding more room. This was to give the illusion that the room was bigger than it actually was in square footage. Another similarity that these two homes share is the…
