Francis Cecil Sumner: The Father of Black Psychology Francis Cecil Sumner helped to pave the way for me to be able to major in child psychology. I chose to write about Francis Cecil Sumner because of the renowned work he did and the social and cultural contributions he made to psychology. He worked tremendously hard to succeed in the field of psychology, and it is even more admiring that he did this in a time when the United States was overall callous, uncaring, and hostile towards minorities.…

Hello Ms. Finkelman, I would like to express my sincere thanks that you have taken time out of your schedule to work with me on my Vocational Rehabilitation Case. I’m aware that you made an exception to your busy schedule to even see me on Monday, 26 October, at 10:30 am. That is why I wanted to ensure that I express my thoughts to you in a written correspondence that you might reference in my absence. Requesting vocational rehabilitation services to attain a doctoral degree is not the normal;…

Why Your Child Should Take a Gap Year In Europe“1.2 percent of U.S. college freshmen deferred admission to take a gap year in 2011” (Baker). A gap year is a year that a student takes between finishing high school and starting university. This year can be used for whatever a student wants it to be used for, whether that be fishing on a trawler in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, digging wells and erecting schools in South Sudan, or maybe farming in Nebraska, the choice is theirs. Many studies…

Reflection Paper I have never enjoyed school. I enjoy learning new things and experiencing the wonders of this world. I am a ‘hands on’ learner. If you show me how to fish, I’ll retain the knowledge much more easily than to just explain how to fish. I’m assuming, like most people I went to college right out of high school and thoroughly enjoyed the college experience. Maybe for the wrong reasons. I thought I knew what I wanted to do with my life, but was never really motivated to complete my…

By doing this academic plan it really showed up what my time in college could be like in terms of classes and getting a degree. Since I have yet to declare a major my academic advisor is Jennifer Jenkins. So when I was filling out the rough draft of my academic plan I filled it out with the degree that I am interested in going into, but not 100% sure at this point, elementary education. Thankfully I still have some time before I have to make a final decision about the college degree I want to…

Brown hair and brown eyes look back at me every morning as I get ready for school. But is that all that there is, or should I see more beneath the surface? In this essay I will analyze the importance of a college degree to myself personally, professionally, what I will need to do in order to be successful, and the ways I will be able to meet my academic and personal goals. A degree from a university is, to me personally, a sense of security. While a university degree will take a lot of…

In a previous posting, the meaning of the word mentor was explained briefly to set the origin and tone of my essay. To expand on the same topic, the word mentor comes from the book “The Odyssey” by the Greek poet Homer. When Odysseus, King of Ithaca, sailed off with his army to fight in the Trojan War he entrusted his friend Mentor to care for and educate his son, Telemachus (University of Maryland). The word “mentor” eventually came to mean a trusted advisor, counselor, and friend. There is…

Truthfully, working in academia just recently became a passion of mine. Originally, I went into my undergraduate career intending to work as a video game developer; however, as I spent more time in the field of computer science, I began questioning this career choice. Particularly, during my sophomore year, one course exposed me to the lifestyle of a video game developer. Ultimately, I realized I did not enjoy this lifestyle or work environment. As a result, I began questioning what I wanted to…
