Once the cross examination was done, the judge wanted a 15 minute recess. During the 15 minutes our class had an opportunity to talk to the judge, and ask him questions. The judge was a friendly, down to earth person, who like to joke around with everybody in the court. I never actually saw him put down anybody. The judge told us that he can not release too much information, because it was an ongoing trial. He also told us that there were over 6000 criminal cases, and most of them are not guilty…

I am not finished becoming the individual that I will one day be. In this past year, my personal character has developed exponentially and particular traits and strengths of my character have become evident. My first year of college taught me more about myself than the entirety of my youth had previously taught me. It taught me that given any task or challenge, if I put my mind to it and commit myself, I possess the work-ethic and persistence to perform whatever it takes to accomplish the task…

How Should Students Study? Learning is a challenging process and learning habits have always been an intriguing topic for researchers, but this topic is the greatest concern to us, the students.

While perusing the list of notable people within the field of library studies, I came across Judith Krug. I felt that it was serendipitous that I picked out her name as my librarians and I were eagerly discussing plans for Banned Book Week. This American Library Association (ALA) campaign is widely looked forward to not just by myself, but by library teams across the country. It’s only fitting to honor her by researching her accomplishments and continuing her life’s work in preserving…

The ideal approach would involve reinforcing understanding of medical conditions by identifying them using ultrasound images. For example, in conducting an eye exam, an ultrasound…

Chinese students in United States Golden sunlight shines through the clear sky, casts a sharp bright reflection on the top of the mountains in distanced. The airs is tingled up with the sweet smell of summer orange blossom, and with mountains are lining up in one direction, the ocean in the other. The horizon of the blue ocean stretches far and gently vanished little by little, and then finally kisses the skyline. Peer out from the hills over the ocean coast, those palm trees grown tall into…
