With her reputable expertise and research interests in implementation of classroom support systems for children with behavioral barriers to learning, and early literacy development in low-income and minority students, the mentorship of Dr. Maribeth Gettinger would be invaluable in shaping my future as a student, as a professional, and as a future university educator. Additionally, Dr. Jennifer Asmus’ research focus on single-subject research methods, and use of applied behavior…

“ ... Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.” Knowledge and wisdom are clearly separated by this statement in the final portions of Hermann Hesse's, Siddhartha. Though stated at the end of the novel, it is clear that this message was intended to resonate throughout the entire literary journey. This book is clearly a representation of Buddhist philosophy, accompanied with hints of other Indo-Asian…

There is a huge problem facing junior enlisted Soldiers today. Leadership styles of today’s Army are immensely different of those my squad leaders and team leaders employed when I joined. For most of my career, I have been in a small flight company with nine enlisted Soldiers per platoon.

It is questionable as to why I had chosen this section, but I have come to realize that it may be because of the behavior that is observed in…

the childhood they had, their surroundings, and how those and the people in their life made an impact on them. Mentors must be well acquainted with the ins and outs of these risks and the lives of these children, and aim to be a support for them. Mentorship can be defined as the “pairing of an adult with a student identified as needing assistance, as a nonstigmatizing, positive intervention that can help youths develop protective factors.” Going further, mentors serve as a “critical support”…

I never dreamed I would become a CRNA because I always thought I would become a computer engineer. I came to America at age 13 in 2003. I was a very studious young child who graduated both middle school and high school with excellent grades. My excellent grades in high school gave me opportunity in choosing between full scholarships between two schools. Unfortunately, I was also an illegal immigrant, and had to decline both offers because I did not possess a green card which would have made me…
