...the policies: Pros include: The no child left behind act. This is where no child is left behind for their education. Each child is given the right for further education help and is given an opportunity for success for their future using the available programs that’s proven to work. Only 1 percent is not required to take a test which is the children who cannot speak fluent English.

This test not only proves what each child does not know but what the teacher’s must focus on in order to make the children become successful for their further education learning’s. The national school lunch program. This is a program where it was very important for low income families. I believe this was a very good idea. “At the President's direction, the Food and Nutrition Service was created as a new agency within the Department of Agriculture exclusively to administer Federal food programs, including the school lunch program, and other agencies involved were directed to coordinate their activities with those of the Department of Agriculture” (Gunderson, 2013). Children with the proper food in their stomachs will help them live better and grasp what they learn every day in school. It keeps them away from being sick and missing days of school and this program helps them stay focused with full attention using their brain. Cons include: The no child left behind act. “We investigate not only how NCLB has...

...“Observation at Local Fast Food Restaurant During Lunch” Author: XXXXX XXXXX XXX University Introduction to Sociology “Observation at Local Fast Food Restaurant at Lunch” Have you ever tried listening to everything going on at the same time at a fast food restaurant during the lunch time rush hour? Well, I did and I am going to share the results of my whirlwind encounter last week. Within my observation, I will go over the layout of the establishment in which my observation was conducted, as well as who came to the establishment, the conversations and the interactions that took place. I hope you enjoy my observation and respect my findings from this visit. The place I chose for my observation is approximately 4000 square foot, with a counter for ordering with cash registers, a kitchen or cooking area directly behind the ordering counter and a drink and condiment area. For dining in there are two separate sections within the restaurant and I chose to sit in the more populated section directly on the other side of the drink and condiment counter, with four tables on one side and three on the other. I chose to go at 12:30 pm, where I assumed that there would still be a large lunch crowd as my choice in locations tends to be quite busy at this time. When I arrived in the parking lot and walked through the entrance, the kitchen area was busy with everyone doing their own particular jobs, and the sound of a fryer’s alarm sounding off, to alert the workers...

...Education in the late 1970’s Andrea R. Ferrari Professor Josephine Sarvis Dominican University April 19, 2016 Abstract This paper highlights key features of the development of education at Dominican University comparing 1970’s to today, focusing on how Dominican has been through changes such as name and diversity as well as the overall education during the latest 1970’s. This analysis is based off of an interview and has comparisons to today’s schooling system based off of historical events. Keywords: Education Education in the late 1970’s For my oral history interview I chose to interview my soon to be father in-law about his experience in the late 70’s. The reason I decided to interview him was because he had attended Dominican University back when it was Rosary College and I figured it would be great to see how different the school is now vs back then. During my interview I got to know a lot more about the person I was interviewing as well as their experience in school and the overall experience to education in the 70s’. Throughout this interview I’ve come to notice a couple of things that really stood out to me and one of those would the diversity of students in the 70’s was lacking, although segregation ended it was like there was still and unwritten form of one. Another thing that caught my attention was the advanced in technology from the 70’s to today, it may not seem like much but when compared to how that applies and effects the education systems it’s...

...| | Panera Bread Company | The observation and analysis of a fast food restaurant | Panera Bread Company | The observation and analysis of a fast food restaurant | Background Information Rationale I chose to observe operations at Panera Bread Company (Panera) based on two factors: 1) I like the food and overall ambiance – I think Panera uses ingredients that are fresher and of higher quality than more traditional fast food restaurants. I also like that customers can sit down to eat using proper silverware and plates rather than using plastic utensils eating off of paper wrappers and plastic forks. Many Panera locations also have a patio, for al fresco dining, a cozy fireplace, for the winter months, and a small section with upholstered chairs and sofas. 2) Panera offers free Wi-Fi – this was an important factor because I wanted to take notes during each visit without bringing attention to myself. Because Panera offers Wi-Fi, it is not unusual to see customers with laptops. Visits I visited three different Panera locations over the course of several weeks and spent approximately 2 hours at each location. Location | Date and time of visit | Order Placed | | | | 5600 Urbana Pike | April 6, 2010 | Cuban Chicken Panini with chips as a side, an unsweetened iced tea and a Toffee Nut Cookie | Frederick, MD 21704 | 2:40 PM | | 136 Nassau Street | April 11, 2010 | Tuna Salad Sandwich (standard condiments replaced with Dijon mustard and...

...The Colorado College FUCC (Freeride Union of Colorado College) bus is a student monitored ski/snowboard bus that leaves every Saturday morning at seven and drops students off one of three ski resorts. The bus costs five dollars and can seat around fifty students. While many students sign up for the bus, it is not uncommon for the bus to not be filled when it leaves from campus. Last Saturday was no exception. With about 30 college students on board, the bus left for Breckenridge Ski Resort. The drive to Breckenridge is, on average, a three-hour drive (including a stop in Fairplay). After putting their skis, snowboards, boot bags, and poles in the storage area under the bus, tired students lined up to check in and get on. Gender differences...
