It is a great pleasure to recommend Rachel Sitasz for admission to the Edward Hospital Student Volunteer Program. She is one of the most empathetic, kind, and exceptional humans I have encountered in my 14 years of teaching. I teach Rachel in my 8th grade advanced ELA class. Her academics, character, innate curiosity, intrinsic motivation, ethical standards, and unwavering desire to give back, have put Rachel in a class of her own. In fact, for the first time in over 25+ years, the eighth-grade team created a brand new end-of-the-year award for our graduation awards assembly.…

In the paradoxical world of the modern, rejection of traditional poetry allows for new contrasting and often conflicting ideas to come together into one. The poetry of Marianne Moore in particular is full of contradictions; she examines average subjects in hyper-detail and employs both precision and an overabundance of metaphor and anecdote in order to develop her own personal style.

Cristanne Miller’s “Gender, Sexuality, and the Modernist Poet” notes that during this time female poets, like Moore, were associating broken traditions (like marriage) with the masculine and patriarchal.…
