Slur Interview Report

Improved Essays
When I think of the word SLUR, I think of words that are highly insulting to a particular ethnic group or organization, not once did I ever think of (SLUR), The Science Learning Resources Center, established by Ann Stuart, a renowned Chancellor of Texas Woman’s University (TWU) the 80,000-square-foot, $26.4 million Ann Stuart Science Complex (ASSC), according to the Texas Woman’s University website was designed to meet LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standards in keeping up with TWU’s goal of reducing its carbon footprint.

During the interview I asked him many questions. I began by asking him, could you describe one of your typical workdays? He replied: “A typical workday for me is coming in, setting up, sitting in the back or walking around asking and observing to see if any students need help. Usually if no one needs help I sit back down in the back to work on homework. As you know, I am a student …show more content…
I then asked: How would someone know this information and other things about SLUR like any books you may have and other materials? He responded “We have a website that students can go to, and the website is http://www.twu.edu/slrc.com and if you cannot find the information that you are looking for you can always give us a call or drop by.” Referring back to how busy the center was, I asked: if someone needed a great deal of help in little time, when is the best time to come in? He said “well, the mornings are typically slower than the afternoons, as students finish up their school day the center usually becomes very busy.

    The Influence of Literature Banning books for specific ages should be supported to prevent youths from being exposed to harmful content. The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd, as well as other sources, include several incidents that impact both children and adolescents in a negative way. Reducing the amount of literature that is available for young aged children can positively influence their behavior in any situation. Although The Secret Life of Bees exhibits the freedom of speech and tools for learning, it should be banned from high school curricula because it includes an abundant number of abusive arguments with foul language throughout the novel that children should not be exposed to.…

    During this week’s assignment I found the interview of Dr. Allen Frances was very interesting. Being in the Human Services program here at SCC and wanting to become a social worker I have been told that I need to be familiar with the DSM-5. I definitely agree with him that normality is difficult to define and it has become a cultural concept rather than a medical concept. Dr. Allen Frances states that our society is already immersed in pill popping which I didn’t find surprising at all. My opinion and viewpoint towards this is I feel like sometimes people get diagnosed incorrectly but any easy solution to make someone feel better is by taking medications and switching them up if some aren’t working.…

    For my human sexuality class, I was to conduct a sexual interview with an individual focusing on sexuality. We were to ask questions focusing on the individual’s attitudes and feelings towards sexuality and any misconceptions they may have held about sexuality. This activity also allowed the interviewer to become aware of their own feelings and attitudes about sexuality during the interview. I intentionally wanted to conduct this interview with a male, because asking questions around sexuality with males is an issue I am still learning to become comfortable with. Working as a family based therapist I have to ask questions surrounded around sexual activity, sexual trauma, and being to provide parents and adolescent with resources about sexual education.…
