4-H has played a large role in creating who I am today. I am a first generation camper for my family, so my older friends were the people to bring me into 4-H. They welcomed me and many others into the program with open arms and created an accepting environment for those that wanted to join. When I joined, I had no idea of the impact this club in Madison would take on my life. My first camping experience is something I will never forget. I had no prior knowledge of how camp worked before that…

However, others thought that Germany was operating on a double standard,…

At the beginning of the play Macbeth was the thane of Glamis and fought for King Duncan, because of that he was respected by everyone. After the…

the quote, “Fair is foul and foul is fair,” is said (Act I i 10). This quotes meaning is that what is ‘fair’ is not what is right, ‘foul’, but that doing ‘foul’ or evil actions is right when fulfilling this prophesy.

Macbeth takes this advice to heart as he continues through the play doing foul acts in order to achieve his goal of the throne. The quote, “Fair is foul and foul is fair,”…

People in the criminal justice system strive to keep a balance between social control and keeping the individual’s freedom.

Even though the people who work in the criminal justice system strive to have a fair and just system, like any…
