I want to go to the College Of Wooster because on the multiple tours I’ve gone on I’ve felt like i’m at home. The college isn’t too big or too small, it’s the perfect size. It’s also not too far from home, but it’s far enough that my parents won’t visit everyday. Along with the campus for freshman we are given a dorm that is all freshman with non coed floors, which is perfect for me. I also want to go to this college because it will allow me to get the best education with the class sizes not…

After my research for colleges the college that will best suit me is Adelphi University. This is evident because it’s close to my hometown, has a affordable tuition, and has a very open campus with a lot of opportunities. Since Adelphi is a 7 minute drive away from where I live it will be a breeze going back home. This is important because when I go to college I may get homesick and would want to come back home every couple of weeks. Another reason is that if there is a family emergency or an…

Gallipoli – Why was it so important to Australians? Gallipoli was one of the longest military campaigns during World War 1, taking place between 25th April 1915 – 9th January 1916.

It was a incredibly important battle, despite the loss on the side of the allies. To explain why it was so important, some backstory is required for the battle. Due to the change of…

themselves at Gallipoli for our freedom. While these are the original ANZAC’s, their values and beliefs have been upheld by the Australian men and women in wars all around the world. They have enriched our nation’s history, through their…

Good morning. It is a great privilege to stand here and speak today, to remember and commemorate the experiences of Gallipoli and the heroic sacrifices that have been made. It was 4:30am on the 25th of April 1915, this very day, that I landed on the shores of Gallipoli along with 16,000 young men. I had been recruited shortly after arriving to Western Australia in 1911 from England and joined the 16th Battalion, becoming involved on that fateful day. Our troops were unsuccessful in an ambush…

stand before you. Before I begin I would like to acknowledge the land of the Cameragal people. I’m sure you have all heard of the ANZAC legend, but some of you may still wonder what the legend is. Gallipoli has become a symbol of Australian’s identity, achievement and existence. Although the Gallipoli campaign failed in its military objectives, the Australian and New Zealand actions during the campaign left us all a powerful legacy. The creation of what became known, as the “Anzac legend” became…

The Gallipoli plan, the life in the trenches and the remembrance and commemoration of Gallipoli all played a significant role in forming what we now know as Anzac Cove. Although Gallipoli failed in its military objectives, the actions…

Racism has been a significant issue over the years and continues to be somewhat of a buzzword in todays society. Reginald Walter Saunders is an excellent example of a man who overcame racism in one of the most difficult of circumstances. Saunders was an Indigenous Australian who fought in WWII both for his county and his rights as an Aborigine. He later became known as the first Aboriginal commissioned officer in the Australian army. Throughout his time of service, he made a significant impact…
