Now there is another thing that people bring up. How come the NFL just fines people for things like this and making these mistakes and the MLB just ban them for life. Yes there are many instances that have occurred during the time of baseball and football that they have had many differences. Like for instance PEDs in football you just get fined money.

am living it head first. It all started when the time in my life came to pick an Univeristy to attend, and boy am I ecstatic with my decision to attend West Virginia University. WVU opened so many doors for me; however, if it was not for my family, I would not be where I am today. I was very content with going to my local University and living at home because that was comfortable to me, but my family encourged me to find a new start. If I was not encouraged, many things would not have happened.…

sooner one starts thinking about it, the more time you have to figure out where you would like to go and what you would like to do.

This University has a remarkable agriculture program that usually is a bit easier to be accepted into. For non-residents of Iowa though, tuition is generally higher, than it is for resident of the state.…

encouraged me to get a college education, since they didn’t obtain it themselves. They used to always say that money isn’t an issue, and to go to the college that I wanted to go to. This idea changed when my brother enrolled in his first year at Missouri University of Science and Technology. The loan overbore my brother and my parents, who were helping pay the expenses. Sadly, we just couldn’t afford his enrollment in his second year, and…

In this article, Education Gap Between Rich and Poor Is Growing Wider, Eduardo Porter discusses the main issue in education today—class. Today, the social class of an individual has a direct impact on the education the students receives. In other words, richer students receive a superior education, while lower class students receive the leftovers—a poor education. Wealthier schools are to provide a better education because those schools receive the most funding due to the nearby real estate tax…

friends with big hearts that had determination and drive to helping others. His friend started a clothing company to help single, low income mothers by providing an income for their families by making apparel for the company American MOJO. I think our university community can learn a lot from this and contribute by hosting a clothing or shoe drive for our local families. We could do this by donating our clothes or shoes to individuals that are less fortunate or lower income that can’t provide…

It is in every college student’s best interest to diversify themselves,…
