In terms of my future career, I intend to utilize services such as the Compass, Career Services, or ASK to expand my network. Additionally, I plan to enroll in GST 498 because an internship is one of the most important steps to stand out…

Lord of the Flies Since the first chapter in Lord of the Flies there were no barriers or guidelines. Motives were unclear and children were left to fend for themselves. The actions and thoughts of the children were affected by groupthink. Little do they know groupthink was later going to influence the drive for dominance. “We’ve got to have rules and obey them.

Boo follows the direction prescribed by his moral compass and saves the children. The fun and spontaneous branches of entertainment that Jem and Scout participate in end up saving their lives. Gabler is incorrect when insinuating that entertainment solely causes harm. He fails to recognize that…

Griffith and Dunham identify the four characteristics of creative people as, "knowledgeable, intrinsically motivated, comfortable with ambiguity and willingness to take risk"Â (Griffith & Dunham, 2015).

This is both a pro and a con, because as mentioned before, there are no predefined social media…

The Bermuda Triangles modern legend started in 1950, when a article about disappearing ships and planes in the triangle written by Edward Van Winkle Jones came out. The triangle is one of two places on earth that a compass points towards true north and not magnetic north (Upton 2). It is also home to some of the deepest underwater trenches in the world (“Big…

Hiding, lying, cheating, misleading, all forms of dishonesty. All actions people like to believe their moral compass or code of ethics directs them higher than to engage in acts of deception. Because after all, deception is stigmatized as inherently bad, irrational, and evil. As a culture, we have deemed deception of any magnitude, ranging from a white lie to get out of a date, to cheating on a test, to participating in a secret affair, acts of deception are considered to be the worst wrongdoing…
