These main attractions have a calling to some so they know that they want to go to a certain…

My story covers the topic of the shooting that took place at Northern Arizona University during the early hours of the morning on Friday, October 9. A freshman and pledge of Sigma Chi at the university became involved in a fight with other students around 1:20 a.m. He then proceeded to run to his car and picked up a handgun. He shot four members of the Delta Chi, another fraternity, multiple times, killing one of his victims. Students that attend the university were upset because the university…

Purpose: The purpose of this proposal is to request the Arizona State University to provide more core classes at the West campus. Summary: The problems that I found is the W.P. Carey School of Business does not provide enough core class for their students. According to the ASU record in 2015, the W.P. Carey had 12,009 undergraduate students on their campus. With this amount of student, the school should have more classes available for them to enroll. However, some of the core classes are not…

Introduction Walking around a college campus, you will see a large number of students looking at their smartphones. Usage of smartphone devices has risen year after year among students entering college with 83 percent reporting to regularly use a smartphone in 2014, up from 72 percent in 2013. (Stansbury, 2014, p. 2) With this reality, Arizona State University (ASU) students are entering college with a variety of experience and, presumably, expectations on using mobile apps while in college.

Being a senior in high school was stressful for me, specially when I wanted to go to University of Arizona. I knew I could of got in because my GPA was high, but I also knew I couldn 't afforded living on campus like I wanted to. After over thinking my opinions about loans, grants, FASHA, and scholarships I decided to try to get a scholarship. Sadly, I didn 't get it because I missed two parts of the requirements (tax information and a letter of recommendation). Since I only had three more…

On April 8, I went to the Back to the Future Brentano String Quartet in Arizona State University (ASU). It really surprised me because it wasn’t like any of the classical music concerts I had ever seen before. It was a medium sized venue and very casual. There was no program handed out but the name, composer and type of piece it was, projected on the screen behind the musicians. The theme of the concert was back to the future. It focused on the 20th century chamber music and was very…

I can honestly say that it feels amazing and even though I am technically finished yet, I still have that feeling of accomplishment. The only aspect of my Arizona State University journey is that my mom passed away before she had the chance to see me finish and walk on graduation. It is extremely difficult to think about her not being there to see me walk across the stage. I am going to finish strong. I am dedicating this accomplishment to her. She put up with so much of my crap while growing…
