The DePauw

(i.e. no real consequences or incentives for failure or success), we must research the question further in a college setting. Additionally, it has been found in various research (see Jaret 2005) that women are more affected by their relationship status than men, and therefore studying the differences between men and women’s self-esteem in relation to relationship status can be telling of gender differences in romantic social interactions. The particular question I hope to employ upon the DePauw University student population is ‘how does relationship status affect self-esteem differently between males and female college students?’ To begin answering this question, I will be implementing a cross-sectional research design for my investigation. Due to time constraint for this study, as well as the private nature of relationships and self-esteem, this is the ideal design for my study. I will ensure that my study is representative of the student population by using systematic sampling of the DePauw student directory. After determining my sample for my study, I will distribute an online survey by means of the sample members’ student emails. Before diving into the research, the question at hand needs to be broken down and defined. Key concepts in this study that need to be understood in order to interpret the research are ① relationship status, ② self-esteem, ③ male, ④ female, and ⑤college student. The first term that needs clarification is relationship status; for this research I…

contribution to the book itself, seeing as it is a collection of twenty-five of her essays published in magazines and by other publishers - all of which recount her life and stories of what she has done.

She moved back before starting grade school, though she…

As an undergraduate at DePauw University, I have worked hard to earn the grades and experiences necessary for me to go to graduate school. Despite the large sum of student loan debt I have collected in compensation for my education. No one in my family has attended a four-year institution, making me a first generation college student and subsequently the trial run for the family. I went to college with no savings and the understanding that I would be taking the financial burden. I love learning…

You should send me to DePauw College next year. The first reason you should send to school in DePauw is the cost. The school gives out very generous merit scholarships to every admitted student. In addition I am eligible for service related scholarships that would help reduce costs. The work program at DePauw is also one of the best in the country, providing many opportunities to reduce the cost of tuition with little effort. Room and board costs are also lower at DePauw than at any of the…

Baugh, a more down-to-earth type of person, tried to relate to the community. He did this through telling us about all of the things he has done in the county, especially when it comes to being a 4-H shooting instructor and helping start the DePauw Trap and Skeet Club. This had the opportunity to relate well with the community since so many in Putnam County like to hunt and fish and shoot for leisure. Stockton, on the other hand, took more of an arrogant approach, and talked about all of his…

Keisean Wilson Chemistry 4B Ms. Hidalgo 2016 May 20 Forgotten Scientist Who knows about the first scientist to synthesize natural products? Who knows who made the foundation for the cortisone?

His mother was a school teacher and his father was a post office clerk. Attended DePauw University in 1920 and…

this time received, at most, an eighth grade education. This was enough to receive a job as a farmer, a maid, or a school teacher for other young black kids. Despite this challenge Julian and his family aspired more for himself. Julian first had to find a school with both the area he wanted to study in and more importantly a school that was willing to accept a black man into their university. Julian landed himself him self at DePauw University in the state of Indiana. However, in the midst of…

member should care enough to learn this—or the student should feel safe and comfortable enough to let them know this—and react accordingly. DePauw is all about a close environment where most know each other and should be helpful and supportive. Some circumstances may be unavoidable though. For example, if the faculty member doesn’t know that a given student has an obscure trigger due to a variety of reasons, there isn’t much the staff can do under those circumstances. This is why I believe it…

organizational exit of graduating seniors after a successful completion of the socialization process in Alpha Chi Omega, or “Alpha Chi,” at SMU through my observations and personal experience. The Socialization Theory and, specifically, the Model of Planned Organizational Exit will be the basis for this analysis. The purpose of this paper is to identify why the graduating seniors of SMU Alpha Chi Omega fail to successfully complete the stages of planned organizational exit, despite successfully…

“We were not disabled by our impairments but by the disabling barriers we faced in society” (Oliver, 2013, p.1024). For the situation contemplate, the general public built impaired individuals as vulnerable and less profitable because of their obvious physical deficiencies. Consequently, in spite of the incorporation programs try to promote conformity, it does not have a particular way to deal with the issues of social constructionism, which characterizes how society treat disabled people.…
