The Declassified Selection Guide to Petroleum Programs Deciding where to go to college is perhaps the biggest decision a high school student will ever make. The average student determined to pursue a degree in petroleum engineering will need to choose the right college for them. Selecting a university can be overwhelming as high school prospects do not often know what factors to take into account.

Sikhs are one of the brown, dark skinned people who have been the targets of anti-Muslim hate crimes. They have been misunderstood because of their beard and turban. In a 2013 survey made by Stanford University and by the Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund, it was found that 49 percent of Americans think that the religion of Sikhism is a section of Islam.

disagree? I disagree with bullying on any and every level. Children are being casted out, because of the way that they look. And that’s from all walks of life. That is very sad from a worldly perspective. I was very surprised that the young man from Sioux City, Iowa, with 4 siblings and two parents didn’t have any friends at his school. That has to be very lonely. We are not designed to live in isolation in this world as human beings. Everybody in his class had at least 2 friends that they…

College players receive an athletic scholarship which pays for the education, but nothing else. The majority of football and basketball players can not afford food, and some can’t even afford college. Getting a full scholarship is undoubtedly a very valuable opportunity for the players to have a fantastic education, but many division one student athletes go for sports rather than education. Once the athlete is on campus, the students receive one meal a day that is included from the NCAA but that…
