Meredith’s allure can be summed up best by one word: potential. When I imagine myself at Meredith, I see the potential I have to achieve great things and follow my dreams. My interest in Meredith started at a young age. My first campus experience was at a State Science Fair. While on campus, I was able to visit the doll collection. As a collector of dolls, I remember the feeling I felt as I walked through and looked at each one. I was excited about visiting again to spot what comes next. My next visit happened years later, while visiting my brother during Governor’s School. Unfortunately, I was unable to visit the dolls due to construction, but I was able to explore the campus and, to my excitement, noticed the same feeling of belongingness that I felt previously. I felt a comfort on campus. I could envision this being a part of my life. Meredith’s size fits me perfectly. My learning style is better suited for smaller classes where everyone becomes aquatinted with each other and can count on each other for support. The amount of degrees offered and the potential for studying abroad are equally alluring. Both are extremely important to my college education. Throughout high school, I have had high aspirations. Personally, my education is extremely important and I strive to obtain the best grades I possibly can. To achieve this, I have always taken classes that were challenging, even if they seemed somewhat difficult. While I tried to do my best, the anxiety I…

Rational Thinking According to Popkin and Stroll, logic can be defined as the most fundamental branch of philosophy that “deals with the nature of thinking itself” (237). However, the depth of understanding logic is so much more than ethical speculations and metaphysics. Whether or not something is deemed logical, depends on how consistent and coherent any particular piece of that reasoning is, as logic attempts to distinguish good reasoning from bad reasoning. This then can determine whether…

items have traveled months or even years in the ocean almost seems unreal; some could even call it mystical. Scanning the ocean for dolphins jumping and moving in families is so exciting.
