classes to earn my BS in Biology. After earning my degree, I plan to enter the University of Colorado Health and Sciences Center’s Physician’s Assistant (PA) program.

I had originally pursued my BS in Biology when I began attending the University of Colorado (CU) Boulder in the fall of 2008. Unfortunately, I was forced to withdraw in January…

edible marijuana should be banned. Larry Wolk mention, “The marijuana industry isn't alone in trying to anticipate what will catch a grabby toddler's eye. People call Colorado's poison control hotline thousands of times…” and Mike Hartman said, “Colorado lawmakers approved the ban on some edible shapes in 2016. At one hearing on the issue, lawmakers shown packages of gummy candies that contained pot and typical gummy bears couldn't tell the difference.” They both had approval for what they said…

could no longer be considered the economic ‘Econo’ to mean cheap given that the services and amenities had changed and hence the price had also changed. What is more, the name Quality Inn and Suites had not been registered to any lodge or inn in Boulder Greek. Burt and Andrea felt that the name could be used by someone else and their hard work would be lost. In my view, their decision to change the flag was the best one.

Being raised by my mother, she demonstrated her mantra that anything is accomplishable if you work hard and never give up. Becoming the first female Cub…

taught chemistry and biology courses at Fort Collins High School. She was a first-year teacher when I had her sophomore year for chemistry. Mrs. Sommervold was an incredibly smart woman, obtaining degrees from CU Boulder, University of Northern Colorado, and Western Governors University. She had the answer to every science related question, to this day it still confuses me why a woman of such intelligence could forget to wear a seatbelt. I’ve taken and excelled in several AP classes through my…

For the final project I decided to attend two piano concerts at the University of Colorado Boulder. The two piano concerts I attended were Hsing-ay Hsu (with Madoka Asari) as part of the Faculty Tuesday Series, and Andrew Ramos’s Doctor of Musical Arts Recital. Both of these recitals were a new experience due to the fact that I had never been to a piano recital at the University of Colorado before. Each piano performance was different, whether it was the music performed or the type of style of…
