Segregation and the war against it have both been a major part of the American history and is still in our present. This war against segregation-that Dr. Martin Luther King-who of course was not the only person, who emphasized on it in the year 1954-has sadly not gained any wide success. In America today, many schools are still in acquaintance with this policy because some see it to have positive impacts when contrary to their thoughts, both the minorities and majorities in one way or the other…

start a career in the field of Journalism, I would consider journalism opportunities as a hobby or part-time job. My interest in journalism sparked while I was a junior in high school. While attending Paul W. Bryant High School, I also attended the Tuscaloosa Center for Technologies for Broadcasting, Television Production 1, and Television Production 2. My instructor, Ms. Winston, made sure I planned on attending college to major in Journalism or a related field. However, at that time, I was not…

The day I was dreading came. I was going to see my best friend for the very last time and I knew that my nightmare was reality. Bethany Harris rose upon the horizon on the night of perfect endless day on December 28, 2016. Tuscaloosa police officials state that she drove off the highway into a ditch and hit a tree. They said the cause was being ejected from the car due to not wearing a seat belt. As we rolled down the road on the way to the funeral home, I gazed out the window and I notice the…

I am Ashley Marie Lupo. I am a woman, heterosexual, upper class, White, Lutheran- Christian; but I am so much more than that. My people are everyone. I accept everyone for who they are and what they bring with them and I don’t alienate anyone for being different. My home is Stamford, CT and in general the North East, that is where I was born and raised. That’s where my family has lived for 3 generations since moving to America from Italy and Ireland. That’s where my friends are and my whole…

years of their teaching career (Phillips & Ingersoll, 2015). One factor contributing to this statistic is that many new teachers are not involved in a formal mentoring program (Grossman & Davis, 2012). This rings true for Tuscaloosa County School System. New teachers in Tuscaloosa County Schools participate in new teacher training that only consists of monthly meetings focused mainly on professionalism. Classroom management, discipline, teaching strategies, and implementation of Common Core…

know which is true or false, but this issue should be put into our consideration. From the article, it seems that the small engines are worn out and easy to get damage when these are used with ethanol. Benjamin Mallisham who own a repair shop in Tuscaloosa states that the lawnmowers he had responsibility for were damaged by ethanol by 40 percents. He also claimed that ethanol melted the engines from out to inside which is the cause of the damage. The reason why I wrote that we don't know if…

The first year at a new school can be challenging in many respects. Seventh grade was my first year at my now alma mater high school. I went from a more relaxed school environment to a rigorous college preparatory school where homework and tests were near constant. However, with new challenges brought new experiences. I began my first elective course in photography. I had almost thought photography was very interesting. My grandmother had always carried around a plastic, disposable Kodak camera…

Hernando de Soto was born c. 1500 to a noble, but poor family in Jerez de los Caballeros, Spain. He went to the University of Salamanca, where he was funded by Pedro Arias Dávila. His father wanted him to become a lawyer, but he told his father that he was going to explore the West Indies. In 1514, young de Soto joined the expedition to explore the West Indies. He was an excellent horseman, so he was appointed captain of the cavalry expedition troops. He left Panama for Nicaragua, and later…

and education levels as well as for maintaining stable, quality housing that promotes people’s overall well being. I always feel humble and privileged after leaving an alternative break, which propels me to create change in my own community of Tuscaloosa. Overall, I appreciate going on alternative break trips because it allows me to be outside my comfort zone, especially in terms of being in a different community setting and working with others of all ages and…

The reason why I want to go to one of these schools is because that they are my favorite two. The location of Penn State is in State University, Pennsylvania. The University of Alabama is located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The tuition cost for Alabama if you are a resident is $5,085 with a total budget of $12,865.If you are a non resident, it’s $12,975 with a total budget of $20,755. So It would be better to be a resident of Alabama than an out of state…
