Where Would You Be

lay the foundation for the Atlanta compromise. This was an agreement between the African-American leaders and the Southern white leaders, the agreement being that the Southern blacks would work quietly and without resistance to the white political rule, while the Southern whites would make sure that the blacks would receive a basic education and receive due process in the court of law. The main idea for Booker T. Washington's “Atlanta Compromise” speech was his hope…

Alfred Hitchcock is the master of suspense as we have learned over the course of this semester. Three main things that we’ve in his movies were; he would use mounting tension, as seen in rope; he would use the grand reveal as seen in vertigo; and he would balance his suspense with humor as seen mostly in north by northwest. These three things could all be considered suspenseful, especially around the fifties and sixties. The first style of suspense, mounting tension was shown in rope. One…

1. Nature of Work (What you do): From what I have learned pharmacists do several things. One they fulfill prescription requests that physicians give to their patients. Two, by fulfilling the prescriptions they are distributing drugs/medicine that is not over the counter. Three, certain pharmacists specialize in pharmaceutical research and/or marketing and sales of certain medicines. 2. Working Conditions (Where and how you do the work): I would be working at a pharmacy. Pharmacy’s typically…

When I applied to INDS class, I didn’t really know what the class was about, but at the orientation it was somewhat discussed. The main thing that I learned about the class, was that it helps you succeed in college, and you have a higher chance of graduating at the right time. So when I was picking my classes for the fall semester, I was recommended to take the class, and so I did. It was only once a week, so it wasn’t going to be that bad. It turned out to be a good experience, the right…

that I enjoyed the most was dissecting a frog. First, you would need to know how to dissect a frog and what you need to wear. In order to keep your hands clean, you would need to put on gloves. Frogs contain a lot germs both inside and out of their bodies, so you would not want to have those nasty germs on your bare hands. One other piece of equipment you would need is goggles. If you are experimenting on a lab frog the teacher gives you, then more than likely the frog’s fluid could spray out…

owner, if I heard that statement I would be outraged. My thoughts would be, I have worked so hard to get where I am, I paid all my loans from when I started, and this was my dream and I made this happen on my own. But, as you see time and time again, when speeches are given after winning an award, such as a music award, they thank many people for helping them get to where they are; they thank parents, god, producers, etc. Therefore, there is truth behind "You didn't get successful on your…

made it clear that the location you are raised and where you live has a huge impact on whether it is possible to achieve the “American Dream” or have the same opportunity to be successful(Frost, 2012). The society today tries to blind us to the harsh reality that the American Dream remains elusive to some generations who are born on the wrong side of the tracks, where geography is their destiny more than their will or choice(Frost,2012). Depending on where you live you may not have access to the…

Imagine if you were accused of doing or being apart of something that would give people reason to legally kill you. Well that's what happened in the Salem Witch Trials. There was also an era where people in America would get there lives ruined and there jobs taken away because of accusations. This was called the McCarthy Era. There were a few similarities and differences in the McCartthy Era and the Salem Witch trials. Here they are. There are very similar details from these times in America.…

one can be bliss for many of us. We recall all the memories that come out of it, the smiles, the laughter, and everything in between. I imagine square one to be our own little bubble, where we sit and twiddle our fingers, frightened to step out-- because if you do, you get sucked into the next world, a world where we think we do not belong. Yet, many of us do not even care about going back. We want to get the hell out of square one. Who knows, maybe square two is better. It probably has…

“Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?” was a story I did not expect to be as fascinated by as I truly was. By combining an authoritarian yet familiar tone with a realistic setting, Joyce Oates short story angles itself into an unexpected horrifying tale, fit for ones with a distinctly strong heart. “Her name was Connie.” Don’t be fooled by this simple setup. This is not a story about a girl and her jealousy for her perfect sister. This is not a story about Connie finding a warm, comfortable…
