When someone blurts out the word “high school”, what’s your first initial thought? I don’t know about you, but “cliques” are the first thought to my mind. The media is drowning in films that portray the idea of “cliques”, but personally, I believe the film Mean Girls is the best representation of the world of cliques. Means Girls is a teen classic, and I can almost bet the majority of my generation has seen or at least heard of it. It is American teen comedy film that manifests the harsh…

In Rosalind Wiseman’s essay “Queen Bee and Her Court”, she specified various roles played in social cliques. In the essay, she states “cliques are sophisticated, complex, and multilayered, and every girl has a role within them.” This demonstrates that although it may seem cliques are very simple, they are actually very conglomerate. In social cliques there are positive and negative roles that a person can have. The sidekick is a negative role; whereas, the floater is a positive role. There are…

Haida Gwaii is often referred to as the “The Canadian Galapagos” with over 6800 species of flora and fauna and presence of more unique subspecies than any other areas in Canada of equal size (Gaston, Golumbia, Martin & Sharpe, 2008). Haida Gwaii is located 80 km west of the mainland of British Columbia and is the largest and most isolated archipelago located on the west coast of Canada (Stockton, Allombert, Gaston & Martin, 2005).

minor role in the forest ecology due to the primarily wet climate throughout Haida Gwaii (Banner et al., 2014). However, human-caused fires on Haida Gwaii have occurred as was made evident by the presence of charcoal at both the Gore Brook Trail in Queen Charlotte and the Anvil Trail in Tlell, both of which have played a role in altering the forest landscape. Therefore, it is important to remember that while natural disturbance do have positive impacts on the ecosystem, the relationship between…

Jerry Spinelli once said, “Don't confine yourself to a select group of friends, often known as a clique. Cliques by definition leaves people out. Lock yourself into one, and you'll never know how many terrific friendships you may be missing.” Today, most people allow themselves to be sorted into friend groups and be labeled by the media. When allowing the media and world around them do this, they can become something they are truly not. Some people don’t let anything but their actions define…

Escorted by only six men, Queen Elizabeth I went among her subjects to deliver a speech on August 19, 1588 in order to prepare them for an upcoming invasion by the Spanish Armanda. Through her speech, you can pick up that Elizabeth's dominant trait is her confidence. Elizabeth shows confidence in herself, her people, and in England's dominance over the rest. Queen Elizabeth is completely comfortable about who she is and what she is capable of. In her speech, she shows no signs of being…

On April 18, 2010 at around 5:30 AM, Hugo Alfred Tale-Yax, a homeless man, was stabbed multiple times by a mugger when trying to help a woman who was about to be the mugger’s victim. He collapsed to the floor and lay there until he died from major blood loss even though about twenty people had walked by that hour (cite). Why would the people just walk by and not at least ask if the man was doing okay? A social psychological phenomenon in which individuals do not assist a victim when others are…
