University of North Carolina at Wilmington

I am a Brunswick County resident who was born in Wilmington, North Carolina, then raised all over Brunswick County, from Leland to Ash. This is my second year attending Brunswick Community College. My long term educational goal is to obtain a Bachelor’s Degree in Nutrition or Psychology. I haven’t decided which one I enjoy best at the moment. I plan on getting my Bachelor’s degree at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. But first, I am finishing up getting my Associate in Arts degree at Brunswick Community College. Then I will transfer to UNCW for my continuing studies. My life time goal is to improve and balance myself in as many dimensions of life as possible and to improve the standard of living for myself through a higher education. For now, I have set my career…

I want to go to UNC Wilmington for many reasons. One of the biggest reasons I can think of would be because movies and films is one of my greatest passions and UNC Wilmington has one of the best Film programs in the state. Growing up I always went to the beaches of Wilmington for family trips and outings. The beach has always been one of my favorite places and if I can possibly go to college at the beach it would be a dream come true. I have been to multiple film festivals in Wilmington and…

No one, not even myself thought I’ll be attending a college in North Carolina. North Carolina A&T is an empowering college that guides young black to student to success. I would enjoy A&T campus because of the variety of students, the family atmosphere, traditional values, and the load of opportunities. I do not believe college life for me would be complete without being an aggie . At A&T my main goal is to obtain an education in sports medicine. Going to college is the most important thing to…

These schools include UNC, Davidson, and Appalachian State (“No Loans for low Income Students…”). The no loan policy has been around for almost two decades, Princeton was the first school to eliminate loans for low income families. Since then, enrollment of low income students has doubled from 1999 to 2006 (“No Loans for low Income Students…”). Allowing students who come from low income families the opportunity to attend an excellent school and have the opportunity for free college, if they are…

assault, abuse, and bulling. Word for word I am the voice of every UNCG student who could not fight alone and I have not fought alone as I have had countless friends and faculty stand by my side to show me my worth and help me rise to my potential. The very first day I came to visit UNCG I knew that I was home and that the students here would be my family. Like any family you want to cultivate it and care for those around you. Out of my love of learning I joined the Lloyd International Honors…

Data analysis It is clear that there is still plenty of room for improvement in the field of veterinary medicine in many different areas. One of the most important areas where improvement is needed is when it has to do with anesthesia, the animals undergoing a surgical procedure, and the staff who is responsible to care for these animals. There are many different reasons as to why this area is lacking the same quality of care that other areas might have. One of the specific problems appears to…

Since coming to college, I have noticed that not all majors have an equal representation of both men and women. North Carolina State University is well known for diversity on campus and their attempts to raise awareness but I often feel that gender is often overlooked when diversity is discussed. Engineering has been and still is a male dominated field of study. Women have often been overlooked and seen as incapable of this type of work but in reality this is not true. Since NC State has a very…

veterinarian office, and I already understood the complexity and difficulty of the job itself. My personality fits well with this job, because I enjoy helping animals, most only get one life, and I want to help them live it. I am also very interested in Veterinary medicine and how it’s been developing overtime. I’ve seen my boss do multiple surgeries, so the aspect of blood does not bother me. What really shocked me was the competitiveness; I never thought that this field would be as…

Veterinary medicine has always been a respected profession. Humans carry a love of pets that is shown throughout society. With that comes taking care of their beloved pets, and keeping them in good health. It is easier for veterinarians then ever before, with advances in technology and the development of new medical software, to diagnose and treat animals. There have been many advances in technology that have increased our efficiency in the animal medical field. We see these technological…

Are you allergic to seafood? Anyone who has had a procedure done to them that needed iodinated contrast media has been asked this. Researching for an article has lead me to exam preparation guidelines and radiology manuals that say to ask whether the patient is allergic to seafood along with other allergies and even to go as far as asking if they are allergic to iodine specifically. The reasoning for this is that seafood is high in iodine. The fact of the matter is that iodine is an essential…
