The sector I chose to write about was collegiate sports. I thought it was only right to write about college sports given I play football in college. I think big time college athletics are very interesting through the athletes, marketing, media and fans. College sports has exploded in popularity in recent years. Some people prefer college sports over professional sports. College athletics will forever grab my attention throughout the year. First, I want to start with some history of collegiate…

courses. She agreed and by sophomore year I was in honors chemistry, geometry, English, and history. While it was more difficult, I enjoyed the challenge of the higher level courses. At Immaculate, I played varsity field hockey, ice hockey, and lacrosse as a freshman and continued on my sophomore year. I really liked my coaches in field hockey. They taught me more about the sport and showed me how to better use my skills. In ice hockey I played on an all boys team. At first this was a hard…

Why don't college athlete get paid? Many people say they should others say elsewise. I'm aganist for paying college athletes. College atheltic programs can't afford to pay athletes. Playing college sports is a privilege. The NCAA is a nonprofit organization. Students are not professionals which most people need to know. Paying college athletes to play would ruin college sports. Another thing is there is not a fair way to pay college athletes. Paying students athletes will cause cuts elsewhere in…

Starting high school is tough. It’s a big transition from having it doesn’t matter if you fail a class in middle school to it’s the end of the world if you don’t get enough credits to graduate. When you start as a freshman, the years go by fast let me tell you. With meeting all the people, to cool classes with new friends, to lunch. The days go by fast other than the fact you feel the classes that you hate go by slow. Your high school years are going to be hopefully good years that you will…

After school on Monday I went to the school trainer, whom after a lengthy examination of my knee, told me the good news that I had no torn ligaments in my knee. I had strained my MCL, a muscle on the inside part of the knee that allows lateral and horizontal motions (Zumerchik 688-689). She told me if the ski on my left foot had twisted even an inch further, I would have had a season ending injury such as a torn MCL or ACL. It would have been very hard to wrap my mind around the fact that I…

I believe that I am an excellent candidate for the Early College program. For me, school is a top priority, and I always strive to be my best. Whenever I set my focus on a task, I will put 100% effort into it until I am satisfied with the result. I am not nervous to talk to adults or teachers, and address any questions I have about the course. To be at college at such a young age demands hard work and dedication, which I am ready to put forth. There is so much in this program that will help me…
