Her voice was incredibly hushed, as if a sleeping baby would awaken if she raised her voice. Another L.I.T., which is what you are for your last year of…

My life was changed forever when I decided to go with a group from my church on a mission trip to host a bible school in Croix des Bouquets, Haiti. I had been warned prior to going that it would change my life in a drastic way, but no one could have prepared me for the amount of brokenness and heartbreak I would witness.

Walking aimlessly through a parking lot is not something an eight year old should do. Much less dressed in a bright, royal blue tutu while trying to ignore the strange stares that were being thrown her way. The blue outfit was not the reason why people were staring, I should know because that eight year old was me and that night is one I love to remember. “Wake up, Cindy! If you don’t start getting ready now we’re going to be late for dress rehearsal.” my mother’s strong voice called from my…

TOLERANCE OF LIVING ORGANISMS TO LIMITING FACTORS Marjorie Villareal INTRODUCTION It is a recognized principle of Ecology that the interactions of organisms and environment are reciprocal. The environment not only determines the conditions under which life exists, but the organisms influence the conditions prevailing in their environment as well (Brett, 1969).
