“Consider how deeply this issue intrudes into the life of the college, how it effects the college even in unexpected ways”( Lascell). In 1996, Grove City College withdrew from federal student loan programs and instead, created its own system. Because of the Grove City College versus Bell court case, the college is no longer able to offer some of the opportunities to incoming students that they once could. However, since then, Grove City College has been known for their exceptional effort and withstanding to the community. There are over 3,000 colleges in the United States, many being community colleges, city colleges, junior colleges, state universities, and several more (Cohen).…

A recap on my life: Spring Semester has been very busy, but it has been such a great Wolf ride-this week in particular. So many things have happened recently in my life that I just want to thank everyone who has taken the journey with me!

After attending the court of appeals case at The Belo Mansion, I felt more educated on how the courts work. It was very informational to watch the two attorneys argue for two people that are deceased. Both of the attorneys stated their arguments well and they used facts and data to back up their side. The best attorney was the one representing the Fredric “Tex” Asche Jr.’s children because he was straight forward and he seemed to know a lot about the case. What I did not like about the attorney representing Baylor was her repetition of certain facts.…
I would like to appeal this decision so I could be an undergraduate of UTA. I'm aware that my test scores don't qualify for admission, but I am willing to take a certain amount of classes. I understand that test scores are important for college academics, but overall, test scores are not a good reflection of my academics. Positivity, creativity, and problem-solving skills are just a few of my academic strengths. The goals I have for UTA are being 100 percent committed to school work and not have any distractions in my way.…

As a proposal to Governor O’Malley, I will offer my opinion on which method should be used for the Maryland State Supreme Court, the Court of Appeals, examine other methods, and ultimately provide why my solution is the ideal choice for judicial selection.…
Over the past 1 year I have had the opportunity to work as an administrative assistant and an assistant program coordinator for the Center for Constitutional Studies at Utah Valley University. When I began working in this position I had did not know what to expect or fully what would be expected of me. However, as time progressed and with the guidance of Dr. Bibby, I was able to see the difference that I could not only make in the Center, but the difference in working in the Center could do to me. During my time here I have been able to develop new skills and hone old one.…
