During a game against Pittsburg high school, a powerhouse school, another athlete and i were arguing back and forth all game long, until i finally allowed my emotions to take over. Late third quarter they punted us the ball, and the guy I was battling…

My time spent at the Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium was absolutely unforgettable. Looking back on this project, I have realized just how much knowledge and experience I have been able to gain from my volunteerism. Not only did I thoroughly enjoy every single part of my project, but my eyes were opened to the endless possibilities a career in biology can offer me. Through working hands on with the animals and staff of the zoo, I was able to develop a sense of what a day on the job was like at…

5. How is the outer rain symbolic of Paul’s inner experience? (164) I believe the rain is symbolic of Paul’s dreams always being crushed, or unattainable. We know, “Paul had often hung about the hotel, watching the people go in and out, longing to enter and leave schoolmasters and dull care behind him forever” (Cather 164). We know Paul does not fit in at school, he tells lavish stories about events and friendships that are not real, and acts out towards his teachers. Paul feels trapped within…

The play Fences by August Wilson, takes place post-World War 2 in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. This plays an important role even in society today because of the emphasis on chasing one’s dreams, along with the position of some African Americans in the 1950’s. “This conflict between an older generation trapped by history and a new generation hoping to overcome the past was at the heart of August Wilson’s own childhood…” (Peterson). The relationship between Troy and his youngest son Corey is one that…

Willa Cather’s short story “Paul’s Case” tells the story of Paul, a juvenile boy who struggles to find his place at his home in Pittsburg. After stealing money from his new employer, Denny and Carson’s, Paul goes on a shopping spree to “live the sort of life he was meant to live” in New York, and finally feels as if he has a place in this world (120). Larry Rubin, a professor at Newberry College, uses his paper, “The Homosexual Motif in Willa Cather’s ‘Paul’s Case’”, to highlight the hidden…

activities, and be responsible with their actions. In another through, the ages 16-21 are the ages that are considered to become an adult. Another quote that supports my claim by Ronald Dahl, a professor of pediatrics and psychiatry at the University of Pittsburg, “If you give them freedom and they can handle it, then they get a little bit more.” This means that giving younger people a chance of freedom, we will be more responsible because we want that privalgae to be free. In other words giving…
