Crew

Throughout the first two and a half years on my school's crew team, we had a culture that had more of a social agenda than of driven competitive one, we had coaches come and go, and the overall atmosphere was inconsistent and without purpose. Individuals interest varied greatly and there lacked a vision, but overall people were satisfied with the status quo. The reality was we were 30 boys in the desert trying to keep up with well established, financed, and consistently coached teams. In order…

my first cut was made. I soon realised after my first cut, the point of stage crew was not just to build musical sets, but to learn building skills, and to find courage in yourself to learn something new. My first year on stage crew, was extremely short. I began to pitch in two weeks before the production was supposed to open to the public. During that time all I did was paint, learn how to…

right direction for success. From my experiences as a CAV Crew leader, I have developed a newly ignited passion for service and leadership. Even to this day, I can walk through the hallways and recognize some freshmen in my past groups and check in with them as a fellow Cavalier and friend. It is a rewarding feeling to know that I have made some difference–big or small–in the lives of those students. I also encourage my peers to join CAV Crew while also inspiring many past freshmen in my groups…

appeal to the reader and make them read with a deeper analytical eye to find the intended meaning. While some picture books are simple and the meaning is straightforward others are more complex and metaphorical.

To gain a full understanding of this story you must…

because his arrogance causes his crew members to pass away and the lack of trust from his crew makes him unable to control them. Odysseus’s arrogance leads to the death of his crew. For example, while Odysseus and his crew are approaching Scylla, Odysseus knows that six of the crew members paddling will die. However, he says, “I told them nothing, as they could do nothing”(ln 620-621). Odysseus is implying that, as they approach Scylla, she will devour six crew members alive. Nevertheless,…

While doing this, the crew onboard hurriedly had to open a switch to allow their train to get onto a siding before the end of the hour, which they were required to stop working by law. However, the crew of train P22 as it was later found, did not return the switch to its original position. The next day, January 6th, at approximately 2:39 am Norfolk Southern Freight Train 192 collided with Norfolk Southern Train P22 at a speed of about 49 miles per hour (Baum). By the time the crew of train 192…

so long to reach home is that Odysseus needs an epic challenge to prove that he is an epic hero. The crew being disloyal on the island of Helios shows Odysseus as the epic hero. On the island of Helios, Odysseus warns his crew and tells them not to eat Apollo’s cattle. “They quickly swore the oath that I required.” (12.328). After swearing that oath, the crew kills the cattle for food. When the crew eats the cattle, this makes Apollo angry who then goes to Zeus. Zeus strikes a thunderbolt at the…
