Introduction The book, Who Moved My Cheese? written by Spencer Johnson, M.D., was chosen simply because it is a requirement for our BUS 201 Principles of Management class. Out of the three book choices, I concluded that this would be the best fit for me not because it is shorter and easier to read, but because of the management techniques discussed in the book. This paper is structured into six different sections. The first section is the introduction, leading into the second section, which…

In Eric Foner’s textbook Give Me Liberty! He spends two chapters talking about the Civil Rights Movement, and when we read it alone he did a very good job looking at the history of the movement. Though, if we use Hands on the Freedom Plow as a foundation we see another side of the Movement. The struggle the women who were the movement faced trying to bring about change. He never covered the pride they felt, the hidden anger that fueled this social rebellion, nor what they had to do to keep…

Final American Literature paper The three works that I chose to write about for my final paper for this class are the “Way to Wealth” (1758) by Benjamin Franklin “The Raven” by Edger Allan Poe and “The legend of Sleepy Hollow” by Washington Irving.

There are two types of people in this world, those who understand the importance of writing and those who do not. The importance of writing struck me a year ago when my english class read Martin Luther King Jr.’s letters from Birmingham jail. MLK was a professional writer and a well-known leader amongst the people in his time, a time in which the only power the black man had could be exercised through writing. I am not seeking any power, but to be an accomplished writer. To me, people that have…

of advice about English 1500 is that you need to put in work to be successful in this class. Everyday in class you are given a writing assignment that helps build onto the major paper, and if you take the time to do the assignment right, the major essay will be significantly easier to write. My second piece of advice is go to student writing services. The first time you go may be frightening, but after you go to the writing center, you will want to go for every paper because they help you from…

what your teachers in high school say because I wish I would have. This was my first semester of college, so I didn’t really know much of what to expect. It was all new to me.
