The purpose of this critical incident and development paper is to discuss the consequence of the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001 on my family and personal development.

I will then share the applicable research I collected and how I believe it relates to my experiences. On the morning of September 11th, 2001 I woke up an unassuming nine-year-old. I had rarely left…
Your eyes open as you hear the loud slam of the doors behind you. You try to look around, but find yourself unable to move. You see mysterious silhouettes standing over you with needles in their hands as you hear the squeak of wheels against the floor. A man comes near you and starts saying words you cannot seem to make out. Everything slowly fades to black, and you are out. You wake up hours later in a hospital bed, and the same mysterious man comes out from behind the curtains. After a long…
My junior year of college I took a course that examined the sociology of race and the law taught by two erudite and critical female professors. In a school full of very wealthy and very white individuals, my far more humble upbringing and extremely liberal raising made me feel pretty comfortable examining issues of racial disparity. Most of the topics were things that I could easily view through a critical lens while not making me feel particularly vulnerable even as a white woman; after all, I…
combine to form other matters like the fusion of two or more atoms, to forge the simplest form of compound into a molecule. As a result, the fist stage of human formation processes through the cellular level from the composition of cells by the compounding of molecules. In addition, all cells in…

Sin and guilt are unavoidable in human life. Everybody, at one point or another, has committed some sin and have felt at least a little remorse over their actions. Given the inevitable nature of sin, it’s almost pointless to address the means to avoid it, if there are any, and infinitely more important to address the means to deal with sin and to redeem oneself. The themes of redemption and guilt are explored heavily in Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter. In it, the life of Hester Prynne,…
Journal Entry #1: The views presented on the differences in equality between men and women in the Western Society by Virginia Woolf in A Room of One’s Own were extremely modernist for their time. Although women have made a substantial amount of revolutionary steps for the modern woman, it can be successfully argued that there is still need for a woman to have a room of hey own in order to be successful. While many hold the idea that men and women are equals in the modern day, it can be…
him highly. This regard made the actions of the government after his death so abhorring. The highest level of the government sanctioned the cover-up of what actually happened to him and “cast a cloud of bewilderment and shame over the tragedy, compounding the heartbreak of Tillman’s death” (Krakauer). Pat Tillman did not deserve the shame that associated with his death, although he had no fault in the matter. Further evidence that Pat Tillman had the characteristic of a true hero remains seen in…
Abstract: - Leonhard Euler is considered to be one of the greatest mathematicians of all time. He made incredible discoveries to many subject areas, but most were to the field of mathematics. In this paper we explore Euler’s mathematical contributions including formulas/identities, concepts and notations. We see how Euler’s formula came to be and the story behind it along with Euler’s identity. We then explore Euler’s approaches to the Basel and Seven Bridges of Königsberg problems and his…
