programs are some of the most prominent in a long list of initiatives the Army created to take care of its Soldiers. Each of these programs relies on Army Leaders to maintain personnel accountability and take initiative when a soldier exudes “warning signs” as described in each of the programs’ mandatory training…
Although sign language was nearly lost by the year 1913 due to the dominance of oralism in the educational system of the deaf in America, many deaf people still communicated with each other using sign language regardless of their own personal risk and other environmental pressures. Also sometime later, many advances developed especially in the technological fields, which enabled the deaf to express themselves in completely different, new ways and helped them share their ideas and concerns with…
Wat maak jy? Right now, you are probably thinking that I forgot to use spell check, but the reality is that this is another language. The language is called Afrikaans, and it is a language that I can speak little but understand quite a lot of. This phrase in a literal translation means “what make you?” in a proper sentence it would say “What are you doing?” I plan to show how through personal experience how speaking and being submerged into two different languages can change the way you can see…
Communication, according to Webster’s Dictionary, is the method in which two or more people converse “using words, sounds, signs, or behaviors to express or exchange information or to express your ideas, thoughts, feelings, etc.,” (Webster) Communication is broken down into two forms; verbal, which would consist of one using words and possibly sounds, and nonverbal, which would pertain to saying things but by using their actions.

Betrayal is hurting someone that trusts you, or showing something such as desire that is not real. Moliere uses Orgon in Tartuffe to show betrayal. Throughout the play Orgon is betrayed by Tartuffe in a variety of ways. Orgon is loyal and kind to Tartuffe by offering him friendship, shelter, and even goes as far as to offer him his daughters hand in marriage. Tartuffe fakes his friendship with Orgon for personal gain such as when he tries to take his property and send him to jail. A person’s…
Yes, I Do Work Like a Girl: A Real Issue of Gender Inequality in the Workplace Despite the recent debate over pay equality, the question simply boils down to: do women deserve to make significantly less than men do? Growing up in a educationally disadvantaged community I had always held the view that women didn’t hold management positions, however since enrolled in college my views have significantly changed. Many traditional cultures, including America, teach that men should lead in families,…

There is a tendency in museums to see the audio guide as an old fashion, or outdated technology. In September 2013, the Metropolitan Museum of Art responded to these preconceived notions and launched a new audio guide. Museum’s have traditionally thought of audio guides as a product that visitors can carry with them to enhance their visit, rather than a important role in visitor experience. As advertised on their website, the audio guides serve as away to enhance the visitor experience; “Get…
As many college students like you, I often get terrible headaches because of many routine situations such as: late-night studies, early morning classes, puzzling situations, or just simple tiredness. Pain is one of the most common and essential parts of our life. Since our births, we adapt and learn to express our pain. First, as kids, we don’t do much effort to express our discomfort, and we start crying and annoying our parents for half an hour. Then we learn to not be as naïve and at least…
For “Pre-determined Decisions”, the families perceived no choice. The decision was in-effect dictated by the situation (such as the type and level of hearing ability) or the system (such as the availability of a specific service) and the family perceived no ownership.
