The effects on children with incarcerated parents. Social Justice Issue: Children’s lives are seriously disrupted when parents are incarcerated. Working in the child welfare field, I see this first hand. I see the effects of when one or both parents are incarcerated. Sometimes child removal is warranted. Other times, case management services are warranted to ensure that the family has services in place to prevent high risk situations. There are a high number of children whom are overlooked…

Every jail has its differences and similarities. There were many differences in the way the Miami County jail and the Wabash County jail were built. Since the Wabash County jail was built in 1979 and the Miami County Jail was built in 2009, there were vast differences in the technology of building these jails. Since more technology was available during the creation of the Miami County jail, it allowed for a more open design, a pod style system, and a more technological building. The biggest…

Giotto’s work on the Arena Chapel leaves many historians questioning the iconography and placement depicted, and whether or not they were directed by his patron or himself in the final outcome. The famous Italian wall painting is located in Padua, and is suspected to have been created around 1305 or 1306. Since its creation, the work has had to overcome many restorations to be presented to the public. Enrico Scrovegni was the patron in charge of Giotto’s creation, and the piece is theorized to…

I remember when I was younger and spent time at Gross Oma’s house she always seemed…

The bridge connects to Manhattan and Brooklyn and part of the project may never have been completed without the assistance of no other than Emily Warren Roebling. Although Females are often recognized with stereotypes because of past history misrepresentation of females, Roebling helps motivate others to…

My educational philosophy is rooted in the idea that students learn from doing while using tangible, real-life materials and experiences, and should be engaged in opportunities to experiment and question the world around them. Classroom learnings are complimented with thought out educational field trips to deepen the students’ connections. Additionally, we recognize the importance of family time, thus at home activities replaced the traditional homework ditto sheets and are simply an extension…

My life has had enough ups and downs, it’s an equivalent to a daredevil rollercoaster: living through emotional trauma, mental illness, verbal abuse, five-year-long divorce with my parents, and lots of moving. In the span of 19 years, it was a very dragging battle for me, but all of these events helped me up to this moment in my life. They gave me my current mind set on life, my plan to go where I want in life and those I want to help. In the beginning, the first six or seven years of my life…

Native American mortuary practices have evolved throughout time; mortuary changes coincide with changes in technology, sedentism, and religious customs. Customs evolve over time in every facet of society; however, mortuary practices are often ignored by the main piece of a population. As an employee of James Funeral Home I have learned how little the majority of the culture knows about preparing and processing their deceased loved ones. As an insider, my interest was piqued into the past…
