The Fifth Discipline

An Outsider “I wish you could see all the pain and emotion that is built up inside me.” My school and social life was very different in elementary school than how it is now. Back to kindergarten all throughout elementary and a bit of 6th grade, I was in so much emotional pain. I wasn’t happy with my appearance or body, I would always put myself down, had zero confidence in myself and hated who I was. There was a point where I believed everyone who left me out, and made fun of me. I believed…

“Koen?” Mr. Blume, my sixth grade teacher read off the roll sheet. “Here!” Koen said as he raised his hand. It was the first day of my sixth grade year. I was sitting straight up in my desk while wearing my brand new school clothes. My mom had curled my hair for this special occasion, and I was even allowed to wear a bit of mascara on my eyes. “Mia?” Mr. Blume read. Another girl sitting across the room from me had perked up, and her and I simultaneously shouted, “Here!” “Mia Aicher?” Mr.…

ISSUE Under Florida statutes and cases pertinent to inadvertent disclosure, is Mr. Beene required to return the privileged documents when (1) the products liability team inspected each document included in the discovery; (2) the amount of inadvertent disclosures was miniscule; (3) the degree of disclosure was rather small; (4) Mr. Fitzgerald requested the return as soon as he became aware; and (5) the client has a right to prevent disclosure of confidential communication, as well as an attorney…

final decision. When the boys chose, everyone but one student agreed. The boy who did not agree thought it should be his turn and threw a fit about not being chose, Mr. Demchok, ignored the behavior. I figured it was appropriate, due to the fact, that fifth graders should be not throwing fits over something like deciding on an advocate. They went on playing their game and the girls wound up…

Children are born as a clean slate and they become how we mould them. Those tiny beings do not know what is the so called “correct” behaviour in a particular situation and it is our duty as parents to let them know about the same. However, many parents get really strict and handle their kids very sternly if they are unable to master a socially accepted behavior. These days, a video of a small girl being punished and beaten is going viral as it is really disturbing to see the little one being…

Foucault was big on the relationship between knowledge and power. People took action once they saw Wallace as a threat and they put her in her place. Michel Foucault’s concept of discipline helps us understand what happened to Wallace, because everyone is controlled by society’s norms and expectations. Michel Foucault 's “Discipline and Punish” was published in 1975 and was focused on convincing society that power and knowledge should be treated as two separate things. A chapter named…

Scholars of Religion have been searching for coherent approach to build an academic discipline Religion. This discipline must have its own language and scientific methods to cluster necessary information for the field. The development of Religious departments as an academic field went through many intellectual stages in last couple of centuries in the…

When I was a child, Disney Princesses like Belle and Cinderella were my idols. There was some kind of independence and strength found within the characters. However, in retrospect I cannot help but notice a male gaze that is ominous over both of these films. The female characters are presented in a way that fits the mold of stereotypes and in turn objectifies them as prizes to be won. Cinderella and Belle became no more than beautiful damsels in distress. Then instead of saving themselves, a…
