...and were told to put away the study materials we were all cramming with in the hall. We thought the test would begin shortly, but –much to our dismay– it did not. One of the A.M. tests of the day, AP Spanish, had technical difficulties and had not yet let out. We were forced to wait in this bleak room until the other test let out. Unable to even glance at our notes, the confidence we were filled with upon entering the room chipped away with each minute. When the final student arrived...

...Questioning the concept of whether or not to attend college is an unspoken argument in the 21st century. Within the last 25 years, it has been engrained in our society that college is a must. Teachers have emphasized that in order to compete with surrounding peers, it is essential to obtain no less than four years of higher education. However, intellectual people without a secondary education have found stable employment, and have created successful careers. It is to be noted that while college is seen as an ideal choice, it is not mandatory in all cases. In today’s society, attending college is a social standard however, students may not reap its benefits or can be just as successful without a higher education. Concluding whether or...

...is the Progressive Value System that Mark Zuckerberg falls into. Others may think that he may fall in the Personal Success Value System but he doesn’t show the qualities of family, affection, and fair play. Zuckerberg is a Progressive rather than Personal Value System because he is always moving Facebook forward trying to make it more efficient and user friendly rather than care about his career, family and friends. Zuckerberg improved the online social media network and took online networking to new heights. Facebook wasn’t always known as Facebook it actually started out as Facemash, but was shut down by the school administration due to the inappropriateness of comparing two students to see which one was more attractive. These websites started up during Zuckerberg’s sophomore year at Harvard University in his dorm room. Mark dropped out of Harvard in June of 2004 and moved to Palo Alto, California to devote his...

...more severe infection because their concentration of the disease is much greater. 4. Having three results from a ELISA assay could be a good idea because it gives a more accurate result if a person was positive or negative for a disease. Having three samples of an ELISA assay would be far more accurate than one due to the assurance of trying the sample more than once and comparing its results. 5. Bacterial meningitis can be spread through respiratory and throat secretions because the virus is contained within the respiratory system. Oral contact with a person is the most common transmission method of the disease. Meningitis can be transmitted aswell by mucous and body fluids. Close contact can be a factor in transmission aswell, and this is why we see the spread of this disease commonly within college dorms. 6. The clues that traced the route of the infection through the college population were the symptoms of the students that they were exhibiting. Much of the symptoms were linked back to meningitis Another factor used was to determine which student was around who, to monitor transmission between students. This assisted me in determining patient zero from the patient with the most severe case. 7. Using antigen concentration to deduce the path of infection can be a very risky task with some limitations. When you take samples of an antigen, the concentration of antibodies in the immune system will be altered because there is no antigen for the antibody to engulf and this...

...type of meals do international students, who are studying in University of Worcester choose to have during the time they are living in St. John Campus? Ready meals, take away meals or cooking by themselves? CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all, I would like to say thanks to my teacher, Ms. Austen. I have received a lot of useful advices and enthusiastic supports from her since the beginning of my project. Besides, I appreciate twenty respondents, who participated in my survey. Their specific answers gave me an opportunity to finish my research successfully. 1. ABSTRACT Dietary habit seems to be a typical problem with international students, especially for whose culture food is far different. Thus, this research will find out the type of meals that are usually chosen by these students as well as the reason for their decision. In addition, the question whether they have to change their eating habits is mentioned. Twenty international students in both genders, who came from both Western countries and Asian countries have been asked to fill in the form containing six questions. The results have showed that preparing meals at dorm have been selected by sixteen people over the total sample with several similar reasons. However, there is a few exceptions in the Asian girl group. Thus, it is established that preparing meals by oneself is the common decision wherever they came from. 2. INTRODUCTION At the moment, the number of students who decide to study abroad is increasing...

...high school student and a college student. Some people will be able to jump right in and adjust to this change effortlessly. Others will take years to adapt or may never grab hold of the whole college experience. High School and College are both educational grounds for a student to grow and improve their lives with knowledge. High school and college are like puzzle pieces on one side they fit together, but on the other side they are something completely different. High School is a continuation of elementary and middle school where students learn what is expected as the standard of education set by the government. Up until the age of eighteen students have no choice but to attend because of the law. During school hours there are rules and regulations which one cannot break, because there will be punishments for ones actions. There is a strict schedule that students have laid out for them and that they must follow. Along with the basic classes there is social learning that takes place during them. Students still need to understand how to react to situations, such as it is rude to talk over someone else who started talking first. The high school presents a wide variety of activities and field trips. With for years of experience and routine they get used to being high school students. For some it becomes boring but others welcome that life. College is a new experience all together. Students are not legally required to attend a college, but if students choose to do...

...university and found many differences between the two that I really liked and others that seemed a bit ridiculous to me. All in all, I learned by comparing these two universities that keeping an open mind and learning about others is an important kind of mentality to have because it makes a person grow and be relatable to all kinds of people that they will cross paths with in the future. One of the biggest complaints heard at Andrews University is over the food. I used to add to those complaints my first year attending Andrews University, but in my second year of college when I went to Argentina to study abroad for the whole school year at River Plate University, I really disliked the food. The university’s cafeteria was quite small but had to hold over 3,000 students for meal times. The food was usually very bland, and, if one did not like the main entrée, one could choose to eat rice and beans, which the cafeteria served for every lunch and dinner. For breakfast, we had the two options of cold cereal and popcorn. On Sunday mornings, at 7 a.m., the cafeteria served scrambled eggs and bread, the only day it served any kind of salty food for breakfast. Sometimes throughout the week I could have fruits and vegetables, but I had to inspect the produce carefully unless I wanted to eat insects. Being at River Plate taught me that the students of Andrews University are blessed since AU has a beautiful cafeteria serving a variety of food choices including an amazing salad bar that’s always...

...Nanotechnology Center will be outline by a normative approach. The normative decision process includes developing an idea for the investment in the Nanotechnology Center based upon an optimal decision. The optimal decision is that SUNY IT should invest in a Nanotechnology Center. In developing the normative decision process for investing the $20 million the paper will look at other possible options, design and implementation, technology strategy, technology policy, and tight appropriability regimes (Burgelman, Christensen, & Wheelwright, 2009). The Nanotechnology Center at SUNY IT will help meet the needs of the New York state initiative in the greater Utica area in bringing in nanotechnology jobs as part of Nano Utica (SUNY IT, 2014). Comparing the Nanotechnology Center to Other Investment Options As New York’s public polytechnic university, SUNY IT must meet the growing demand for technical degree fields and the necessary facilities to promote growth in the state of New York. The next major project being considered is the Nanotechnology Center at the SUNY IT campus to provide for both academic experience and commercial research and development studies. According to Nano.gov, nanotechnology is “science, engineering, and technology conducted at the nanoscale, which is about 1 to 100 nanometers.” Why is nanotechnology...

...Using Facebook to Teach Rhetorical Analysis Jane Mathison Fife The attraction of Facebook is a puzzle to many people over the age of thirtyfive, and that includes most college faculty. Yet students confess to spending significant amounts of time on Facebook, sometimes hours a day. If you teach in a computer classroom, you have probably observed students using Facebook when you walk in the room. Literacy practices that fall outside the realm of traditional academic writing, like Facebook, can easily be seen as a threat to print literacy by teachers, especially when they sneak into the classroom uninvited as students check their Facebook profiles instead of participating in class discussions and activities. This common reaction reflects James King and David O’Brien’s (2002: 42) characterization of the dichotomy teachers often perceive between school and nonschool literacy activities (although they are not referring to Facebook specifically): “From teachers’ perspectives, all of these presumably pleasurable experiences with multimedia detract from students’ engagement with their real work. Within the classroom economy technology work is time off task; it is classified as a sort of leisure recreational activity.” This dichotomy can be broken down, though; students’ enthusiasm for and immersion in these nonacademic literacies can be used to complement their learning of critical inquiry and traditional academic concepts like rhetorical analysis. Although they read these texts daily...

...Strategies For Controlling Student Debt Jarett Lopez - 6385761 Dr. E. Bailey ENG 1100F October 5, 2011 Strategies for controlling student debt For those who attend college or university in Canada today, debt is inevitable. Many factors can contribute to this fact; the consistent rising of tuition costs, the marginal average income increase of middle-class families, perpetually rising interest rates, but most importantly, the lack of student debt relief knowledge. The Canadian Federation of Students has an ongoing debt clock which reflects the Canadian student loan debt of over 13.9 billion dollars, with an average debt per student upon graduation of approximately 25,000 dollars. This shouldn’t be surprising, knowing that since 1990, the average net income of middle-class families in Ontario has risen only 12.5 percent, all the while, tuition costs have risen from 2,500 dollars per year, to 6,500 dollars, an increase of an astounding 260 percent. This trend of rising tuition costs is consistent throughout the majority of Canadian provinces. Today’s Canadian post-secondary students are capable of controlling their debts, provided, they decrease their loans by minimizing their school fees and costs of living through being resourceful and staying informed. By being accepted to a post secondary institution, students have demonstrated that they have the intelligence and knowledge to succeed in their studies. Staying at university or college, however, takes...

Did you know there are more people with genius IQ’s living in China than there are people of any kind living in the United States? ERICA (V.O.) That can’t possibly be true. MARK (V.O.) It is. ERICA (V.O.) What would account for that? MARK (V.O.) Well, first, an awful lot of people live in China. But here’s my question: FADE IN: INT. CAMPUS BAR - NIGHT MARK ZUCKERBERG is a sweet looking 19 year old whose lack of any physically intimidating attributes masks a very complicated and dangerous anger. He has trouble making eye contact and sometimes it’s hard to tell if he’s talking to you or to himself. ERICA, also 19, is Mark’s date. She has a girl-next-door face that makes her easy to fall for. At this point in the conversation she already knows that she’d rather not be there and her politeness is about to be tested. The scene is stark and simple. MARK How do you distinguish yourself in a population of people who all got 1600 on their SAT’s? ERICA I didn’t know they take SAT’s in China. MARK They don’t. I wasn’t talking about China anymore, I was talking about me. ERICA You got 1600? MARK Yes. I could sing in an a Capella group, but I can’t sing. 2. ERICA Does that mean you actually got nothing wrong? MARK I can row crew or invent a 25 dollar PC. ERICA Or you can get...

...metropolitan newspaper. I was six years old when he first took me to experience the final hour before the morning edition was "put to bed." The place was alive with activity-shouted orders, quick telephone calls, and copy boys running last-minute changes to the composing room. The whole scene was like watching a huge animal struggling for survival. Many systems theorists regard the image of a living organism as an appro priate metaphor to apply to all organizations-one model fits all. Even though mosquitoes, sparrows, trout, and polar bears represent vastly different species in the animal kingdom, they all have systems to provide for nourishment, respira tion, reproduction, and elimination of bodily waste. Karl Weick is uncomfortable comparing organizations to live bodies, but he definitely regards organizing as a lively process. Weick is the Rensis Likert Profes sor of Organizational Behavior and Psychology at the University of Michigan. Whether he's examining a publishing company, IBM, the city council, or a local jazz band, Weick focuses on the common process of organizing (verb) rather than the static structure of the organization...

...Hero’s Journey of the Dead Poet’s Society Religion in Film “Carpe diem... Seize the day, boys, make your lives extraordinary.” -Robin Williams (John Keating) Written by Tom Schulman Directed by Peter Weir An English teacher with ideas of free thinking teaches his students not only to think for themselves, but helps to establish a love of poetry. Ultimately, the movie Dead Poet’s Society fills me with nostalgia for New England between its brilliant display of tradition, prep schools and brilliant autumn sceneries. This movie has since sat at the top of my list of favorites since its inception into the theater in 1989. LANDMARKS OF THE JOURNEY Set at the best boy’s prep school in New England, this story introduces us to motivated and impressionable young lads who are inspired and moved by their English teacher, John Keating who was once a student at the same academy. While all the boys we meet have various teenage angst with which they face, there are three main characters who undergo intense transformations as they are faced with different conflicts (INMOST CAVE) that they must face. Neil Perry, the driven lad with a passion for acting must face his father’s strict guidelines for what he has planned for his son. Todd Anderson faces the pressures of following the footsteps of his popular and successful older brother. Struck by the beauty of an unavailable young girl, Knox Overstreet seeks his inner romantic and forges on with being led...
