...While in law school, law students complete required courses, and elective courses to prepare them for their future practices. One is only considered a lawyer once they earn their juris doctor degree, and in order to do so, they must complete at least three years of law school (Jackson). In some cases, students can attend law school for longer, but with the high cost of law school, it would be irrational, since the curriculum is designed to take three years. In their first year, law students are enrolled in required courses about general subject matter necessary to practice law, like “contracts, torts, civil procedure, constitutional law, criminal law, and legal research” (Echaore-McDavid and McDavid). This provides an introduction to the legal industry for prospective lawyers, and prepares law students for the courses...

...Why Law? I woke up at five o’clock in the morning to the sound of a rooster crowing and forgot where I was sleeping. As I stood up, I groggily recalled the events of the previous day. My plane landed in San Jose, Costa Rica and I was immediately whisked away into unfamiliar territory on an adventure that would change my life forever. Months earlier at the ripe age of ten, I had been chosen to live with a host family for a month in Costa Rica. For months, I eagerly learned about the country itself, the Spanish culture, language, and food. Nothing, however, could have prepared me for the culture shock I was about to endure. On the same day I arrived in San Jose, my host family took me on a week long vacation and separated me from my friends and teacher. I quickly learned my host family spoke minimal English and the months of Spanish weren’t helping in our communication. I was car sick, tired, and missing home already. Right after a particular incident where a monkey stole my mango I had just plucked from a tree, I thought to myself, “Remind me why I decided to leave the comfortable and familiar for something completely alien to me in every way?” As the weeks progressed, I was reunited with my fellow classmates and regained my mental strength. Even at that young age, I learned a great deal about my identity and what cultural differences truly meant. My host family was completely strange to me: Steve Erkel’s voice was replaced with a Spanish imposter, my bed...

...Essay- How will your college education contribute to society? I am a graduating senior at Brookwood High School in Snellville Georgia. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a doctoral degree in philosophy, a bachelor’s degree in business and management, and earn my Juris Doctor so I can pursue my career aspirations of becoming a successful criminal defense attorney. My ultimate goal in life is to become US attorney general; however, I am certain that if I do not complete my college degree I could never have the opportunity to achieve my career goals. I decided that I will attain a career as a criminal defense attorney since my passion has always been assisting others and correcting the sometimes unfair judicial system. Therefore, I think that pursuing such a career will provide me the opportunity to help improve the community's quality of living and help them learn more about their rights as citizens. I am originally from Atlanta Georgia and have seen firsthand the effect of what a broken community looks like and the effect it has on everyone in it. My mission is to change these broken communities into more vibrant areas where everyone has the same opportunity to achieve success. I have not lived in complete poverty and I was blessed that did not happen to me, I have always wanted to help people no matter what and all of the programs I have undergone has prepared me for my future in order to make a change in this world. Programs I was involved in as well...

...skinny figure with a long white coat and black shoes that glided across the floor like skates. Those big blue eyes that I seen through those specs was to die for. Coming out of my fantasy with this Doctor I now knew that it was time for the big birth. He spoke fluently in his barrow town voice, “ Ms.Luckett are you ready” my reply was a smile so wide you could see the breakfast I had two hours before. He escorted me through the halls that seem as if they were never going to end. I was greeted by so many different smiles and body languages. Finally I had made it to my destination! The room was very dark and cold. In the room it was two chairs with floral printing on them that rocked back and forth. A television that looked like it was there since the WWII, and a bed that looked like it was hard enough to drive a car upon. The doctor gave me the ropes of the procedure and stated that I shouldn’t be afraid. As I lay in the bed with nothing but a gown on feel like I’m exposing myself to the world. Family and friends were stopping by and was overjoyed with what was about to happen in any second. During this time I was so calm like the sand on the beach until I realized that my whole life was about to change. I panic tears were rolling down my face like a river flow. The doctor...

...I do think that people who develop new technology should be required to have their innovation screened. The reason I think that one should have their innovation screened is because it’s a core essential part of the idea being developed. It also allows technology to grow and transform into something even better. Technology is transforming innovation at its core. It allows many companies and new industries to test new ideas and with the help of technology speed has become everything, the development can be posted on web sites, and one can tell the results within hours on how customers respond to the new product. If the product does good during the testing session this can result getting in stores and promoting the product, this can boost the process and productivity very quickly. With a trial base I also think this does not allow the inventor failure because there will be feedback before moving forward on a product. This makes innovation and growth, more efficient and cheaper to be screened. Companies are able to give prior feedback and better ideas on how their customers like this product and what they want. This allows for prior marketing if the product is a success through prior screening. once the accessible technology is in place, including new technology, it is rolled out to the organization. This step also involves increasing awareness among employees about the availability of accessible technology and training employees on how to use the accessibility features, and last...

...pay for services. Users might pay for devices, but who's going to pay for the voice and data plans? There are a couple of ways you can handle cost-sharing, but it's important to pick one and get users to agree to it. You're going to have to draft acceptable use and security policies that include the consequences of violation. Then you need to train users and help desk staff on best practices and support. You'll have to know how to handle the biggest BYOD challenges, security. At a urban health plan inc their doctors travel a large hospital with their iThings, recording patient information, diagnostic data and preparing reports. The network travels with the doctor, following him or her throughthe building. When it’s time to print, the request is sent to the closest printer where the patient record is hard copied for the patient’s file and prescription scripts are prepared. Instead of stopping 10 minutes to prepare paperwork, increased roaming network allows the doctor to visit more patients in less time. I would implement BYOD policies in a company. I think the pros far outweigh the cons....

... It's sort of my reflection on the cyclical nature of life. And how we are a lot more connected than we understand or admit. The poem is titled: 'I realized last night that, for the first time in my life, I am finally really willing to be an organ donor.' ------------------------------ Sweet sixteen One summer afternoon, about out the door for family dinner at Outback Steakhouse. Went to check on my bestie Jenie, staying with me for the summer, kicked out of her own house again, one more time. I had a feeling. Are you sure you don't want to come with us? I said, peeking into the top bunk of my little brothers bed. No response. Motionless, unconscious. I ran to my auntie, doctor frances, downstairs. "She'll be okay," said doctor frances. We called the ambulance anyway. "She'll be okay, "said doctor frances, again, after they wheeled Jenie away on a stretcher. Jenie went to icu, had her stomach pumped, went to rehab after that. We pretty much pretended nothing had happened. Time passed. Lots of things happened. One winter afternoon, the ripe age of 22, my mom dropped me off at a portland clinic, 10th floor of an office building. "babies are expensive," my single-father boyfriend had said. i took his word for it, and took the valium and the vicodin from the nurse, listened to them read me quotes from other girls in my condition about how happy they were with their choice.

...The Story of an Hour Analysis Kate Chopin’s short story called The Story of an Hour fits its title because the whole story happens in literally an hour or less. In the story the first character we hear about is Mrs. Mallard a wife of a man who works at a railroad; it is also known that she has a heart disease. We also hear about her sister, Josephine who had to break the news to Mrs. Mallard about her husband’s supposed death, the last character is Mr. Mallards friend named Richards, who seems to be with Josephine just for moral support and to be there if anything were to happen. The setting took place in Mr. and Mrs. Mallards house when Josephine went to break the news “in broken sentences” to her about the railroad accident that happened and seemed to cause the life of Mr. Mallard. The story is told in third person, and it only takes an hour or less to find out what really happened at the railroads. After she had heard of the disaster that had happened back at the railroads she started to cry on her sisters shoulders. She was paralyzed at the fact that her husband had died she was in a huge shock and did not expect such news. The story then goes on talking about depression “There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully. What was it? She did not know” I believe that what was coming to her was a depression that she had never felt before. Mrs. Mallard’s felt guilt mostly because she realized that she had taken her husband for granted. Also, by taking...
