Community college

While a statewide report, there are many suburbs in Minnesota that have are majority white, and their schools are majority white with advanced courses, which shows that race, ethnicity, and economic class do play a role in enrollment in advanced courses, as students of a higher economic class had the opportunity to take advanced courses. The bit of diversity in my advanced courses, however, was not reflected in the students who actually took the exams. While there are no longer any policies…

Brunswick County, from Leland to Ash. This is my second year attending Brunswick Community College. My long term educational goal is to obtain a Bachelor’s Degree in Nutrition or Psychology. I haven’t decided which one I enjoy best at the moment. I plan on getting my Bachelor’s degree at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. But first, I am finishing up getting my Associate in Arts degree at Brunswick Community College. Then I will transfer to UNCW for my continuing studies. My life time…

Colleges will have to devote additional expenditures for students if the college has an “open door” policy. “Open door” policies make it more affordable for people who want to attend college. Even if the student is intimidated by all of the difficult criteria the college offers, enrolling in an open door policy college would still be cheaper. According to NCSALL, “By keeping the doors to higher education wide open, community colleges have accepted the responsibility for educating all their…

school reach its maximum potential. “If you want the best for your kids – this is it.” Members agreed that the school’s strengths include: • Strong student participation in the community “The kids are happy, educated, and well rounded. They participate in the faith community and in the larger community.” • A caring, community atmosphere “They go extra step to make sure kids are doing well academically, socially, and emotionally.” “They give the kids a strong sense of self – they are…

This case study of my community has been extremely interesting for me to research. I was confident that I was aware of the health of my community. I did not think that I would discover too many differences between my Walk About and my discoveries from my research. I was unsure if my informants from my Site Visit would have much to add to my research. Since, I was only aware of my informants at The Salvation Army providing clothes to my community. Now that I have completed my Walk About, my…

An event called CONNECT Community Dialogue was held at a safe environment where women and men come together to ask tough questions and share their concerns about healthy relationships, gender equity and domestic violence. It was an intergenerational conversation on fathers and men preventing violence. A mobilization strategy implemented to prevent family violence. It was a great way according to Caitlin (2002) to strengthen Sister- and Brotherhoods in the shared mission to create safe families…

something greater, a shared sense of community. For one, people united under one cause can band together in order to help others in their community, helping others heal from a tragedy to collaborating to start a movement. On the other hand, people in communities can band together for corrupt reasons, to spread hate and chaos into the world. These examples of communities are evident in both today’s society as well as the novel Unwind by Neal Shusterman. Clearly, communities can both help and harm…

Ashley discussed her living environment in strictly positive terms. She began by explaining her beautiful neighborhood with tree-lined streets. She emphasized the neighbors’ companionship and assistance in her neighborhood. Ashley described her home as a cozy home that is large, but not too large, adding that her kitchen and the family room are her two favorite rooms in the house. The kitchen is “L” shaped, with a large island in the middle. She explained this layout has plenty of room to cook…

The Community Nursing (3QQ3) course has been an eye opening journey for me in to the world of community nursing. At the start of the initial course doing the practice tools I was quite apprehensive and had no idea what to expect. It was hard in the early few weeks to see how this course would evolve. But, as I became oriented and more familiar with the community the bigger picture began to form. Indeed, the windshield survey was a great tool to assess our community. This was an assessment unlike…

activities. The community detection in such mul- tidimensional social networks has attracted a lot of attention in the resent years. When dealing with these networks the concept of community de- tection changes to be, the discovery of the shared group structure across all network dimensions such that members in the same group interact with each other more frequently than those outside the group. Most of the studies presented on the topic of community detection…
