professional and individual level. (keep?) I first toured Idaho State during my junior year of high school, and I did not experience the typical ‘this is the university for me’ epiphany. I thought there was too many brown brick buildings, the rushing college students…
Throughout my adolescence, it was not easy finding a place to belong. I remember my first day in middle school, I had no idea how others will perceive me, how others will treat me, and how others will approach me. In the first few days in middle school, I was all alone. My friends either went to different schools, or they had different classes, so I had a choice between making new friends or secluding myself. I know that I will be a “loner” for the first few days or weeks of school, and I know…
to college? Many teens after they have completed secondary school are confused whether to pursue a career or not to but in reality they need to find out who they are and what they want to be before making the terrible mistake of wasting their money in something they are unsure of pursuing.

Diagnostic Essay – Expressing an Opinion College is not right for everyone. With that said, everyone is not college material. Some students are not ready to go off to college right after graduating from high school. Some students may not be mature enough to go off to college just out high school. So in my opinion it should be up to the individual if their ready to start college are take off a year before going to college (Unigo, 2015). However, some students need to sort things out. While most…
and physical brain damage. Also those who enter college sports may have been diagnosed with a concussion and will more likely get symptoms of a head injury. It’s important to be aware of individuals with the symptoms because 25% of athletes don’t report them while in field. I am interested in the athletes who don’t report their symptoms and would like to do more research on it. High Risk Gassel et al. (2007) reported that for both groups, college athletes are the ones at most risk compared to…
In the Campbell and Cosans v. the United Kingdom case presented to the ECHR back in September of 1981, mothers of the Campbell and Cosans family fought for their philosophical beliefs on how their children should and should not be disciplined. The case brought up very important stances on the right of a teacher enforce corporal punishment, and the right of a student being denied education because he or she did not want to receive corporal punishment. The claims began from two different schools…

My days would consist of seven hours at my high school, Marysville Academy for the Arts, another four hours spent in the afternoon at the Yuba College campus, and the rest of the day consisting of homework and extensive studying, while always maintaining a 4.1 GPA in high school and a 3.8 GPA in college. My arduous work eventually led me to graduate from high school one semester after my freshman…
discussed on numerous occasions on whether or not college athletes should be paid for playing sports for major universities. A lot of people feel that they should get paid for the hard work they do, while others such as myself say that they should not be paid. College students should not get paid due to the fact that they are already getting paid on scholarships, it hurts the school, and it doesn’t further their education. The first reason I feel that college athletes shouldn’t be paid is due…
Obtaining a college education in today’s society is important. There are stories of those who skipped over college and amassed a fortune. That being said, those stories are few and far between as compared to those who skipped college and do not have that high paying job that is so sought after. The topic of supply and demand can be applied to most everything when money comes into the equation. When the supply is low or deficient, and demand increases, then the amount of money paid will also…
