Armstrong Atlantic State University

Prior to this academic year I knew next to nothing about Oberlin other than the fact that it was a college and it existed. It wasn’t until my college counselor recommended I apply there. Originally I wasn’t going to look into the school much since I was swamped with school work, family problems, and other college applications. I’d done some research into the school, but it was mainly financial research, looking to cost, financial aid, and scholarships. But I realized, for every other school I…

Who is Temple Grandin? Temple Grandin is the creator of the most peaceful way a cow is transported to the slaughter house. It all ties back to her autism, as a kid she would see things through a cow's eyes, which made her able to create a system that cows can comfortably and safely transport to a slaughter house. She could see things that threw a cow such as what makes the cow uncomfortable and stop the heard from moving forward. It’s amazing how she is tied closely in a connection with these…

With the events of the Sandusky scandal taking place primarily on the Penn State Campus, you have a variety of stakeholders affected both internal and external. The internal stakeholders in this case are the people on campus who were directly affected by the events that occurred (Crandall, Parnell & Spillan, 2013). The management team and the athletics department both had a stake in how this played out. The management team would have to replace the employees that as well as handle the…

Why Meharry? I believe Meharry Medical College resides among the best medical schools in the country. In fact, it is the first medical school in the South for African-Americans. Meharry has a reputation for teaching its students about the rigors of medicine while instilling priceless qualities required for a career in medicine such as integrity, dependability, and competence. Dr. Joshua O. Williams, a Meharry alumnus, was the first person to introduce me to Meharry Medical College.…

not having anyone hurt my petite niece when she least expects it!” I began to think to myself, wow, even 170 miles away from home my uncle who rarely watches the news knows what I have to be afraid of at school. I am a freshman here at Grand Valley State. I was most definitely an independent person before I left for college, exploring areas of my city I’d never seen and getting to know all sorts of people throughout high school. Little did I know I’d have this feeling of independence ripped away…

The best and most recommended place to be a recreational therapist happens to be in California. In California, there are more job opening and get paid higher than other states. The job projections for a recreational therapist increase faster than average, at 12%. The number of job availability changes but right now it lingers around 19,000. A benefit to this job centers around the flexibility. A person can work part time…

I had the pleasure of interviewing and getting to know Asraa Abdulwahab. She is a student at Boise State University. She lives with her family in Boise, though they are originally from Iraq. Asraa’s parents met while attending college. They married and had three children. They decided to move to the United States from their home country of Iraq so that Asraa and her brothers could have more opportunities for their careers and lives. Asraa explained to me that prior to 2003 life in Iraq was…

One Love gave the Misfits a scare through the duration of the first half of the Morale, Welfare & Recreation women’s soccer league game March 23 on the Multi-Purpose Field at U.S. Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Although One Love had the opportunity to beat Misfits, they would lose 6-2. Most of the other MWR leagues have a few practices or none at all. However, the women’s soccer league has coaches that held tryouts, coordinated practices and have additional support from others willing to…

which college to attend because I had to leave my friends, family, and some of my belongings back home. When I was thinking about which college I wanted to attend, I was stuck between three choices: Missouri State University, University of Central Missouri, and Missouri Western State University. I knew whatever my decision was that it would have an impact on me immediately and for the rest of my life. I decided Missouri Western was the right college for me because I liked it more than the other…

money, even if it’s from a loved one. There is this stigma that if you’re an adult, asking for money is looked down upon and you’re seen as weak or unfit to be an adult. In fact in the article Jeffery, a research professor of psychology at Clark University says that "There 's this negative stereotype we have about young adults, that getting financial help from their parents indicates a character deficiency on their part" (Akane Otani, 2015). I do agree with this part. Like I said earlier, some…
