University of North Carolina at Greensboro

Over the past few months, The University of Missouri has undergone many changes as a result of the protests on campus. These protests are similar to the lunch counter sit-ins that occurred during the Civil Rights movements. The two tactics had similar missions. Active college students used nonviolent protests in both situations, and they were relatively successful in their endeavors. In this paper I will further expand on the connections between lunch counter sit-ins and the protests on campus.…

letter, from the University that I have habitually desired to attend, only to observe my smile decline as I informed them that my decision had been deferred.

community known, ironically, as Rich Square, North Carolina, with a population of about 900, I am no stranger to disparities. I can vividly remember sleeping without heat in the coldest of winters and going to school on the first day without any of the name brand clothing that my friends would own, but in the midst of all that encompassed my home life, I persevered. With very few positive figures…

There are many accomplishments America is proud to represent. Being the first on the moon, democracy, and naturally, cheeseburgers. However, to nobody’s surprise, America ranks 14th out of 40 countries in education, but is #1 in incarceration, teen pregnancies, and obesity. Unlike Japan and South Korea, this gives the impression that America is not investing enough in the youth’s education to keep up with the rest of the world. Why is this an issue? There has been a 28% job increase in the STEM…

Introduction- This project, I feel, will really help me find a job that I can look back on when it’s time for College. I can predict that based on me, my interests, and the survey, there will be a high chance that I could most likely result in a career path in the arts or design.

My overall desire is to strive to be the best I can be, to push myself to…
