...Lunch In School? No Off Campus Lunch! Do you ever wonder why you children come home hungry? you might think they digested but they just don’t eat lunch. The subject I will be discussing is schools should allow off campus lunch for students. My subject is relevant because there is a new mall being built right next to my school. I wrote this because I thought it was the perfect opportunity to discuss off campus lunch since there is a mall next to us. This effects me to because once I ate cheese pizza (not much) at my school, and my stomach started to hurt really badly. We should have off campus lunch, a lot of people don’t eat lunch because they hate it. An Three reasons are, the school can save more money, can give teachers more time to...

...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...

There is evidence that school breakfast and lunch programs are not up to par with current United States Department of Agriculture standards and that USDA standards may not be utilizing the latest research about nutrition. Studies have shown that proper nutrition has a direct effect on student performance and behavior in school. Much of the literature I reviewed confirmed that nutrition has a direct effect on neurotransmitters which are important in sending messages from the body...

...College Students Expenses By Anne Jones Going to a top college can be hard because it is really costly. A student and his family must be prepared by all means to keep this commitment to further a student's education. So awareness of how much your college education would be is critical because it is not limited to tuition fees. There can be more expenses to be expected when a student goes to college. Let us look at the general list of what a student pays in college. First would be tuition fee. Tuition fees can be at the range of $6000 - $25,000 for a four year course. Take note that public colleges have smaller tuition fees than private colleges. So look to this as an option. Second would be living in colleges. A student in college usually would try to find work in between to cover the cost of living. It is something that should be considered before going to college because you have to think of things like rent, food, bills and other travel costs. A common student would need an average of $1,000 extra for these extra expenses. Third are the materials you need to study. These are the givens like books, bags, IT equipment and could cost to at least $2,000 a year. So it is important to be able to budget before you go to college. Make sure you leave yourself some extra money monthly for self use. Try to find a monthly average of your expenses so you could allocate your funds accordingly. Going to college is a big investment but in the long run the education you get would allow...

...11 Position Papers I f you like to argue, you will enjoy writing position papers and argument essays. The purpose of a position paper or argument essay is to explain both sides of a controversy and then argue for one side over the other. This two-sided approach is what makes position papers and argument essays different from commentaries (Chapter 10). A commentary usually only expresses the author’s personal opinion about a current issue or event. A position paper or argument essay explains both sides and discusses why one is stronger or better than the other. Your goal is to fairly explain your side and your opponents’ side of the issue, while highlighting the differences between these opposing views. You need to use solid reasoning and factual evidence to persuade your readers that your view is more valid or advantageous than your opponents’ view. In college, your professors will ask you to write position papers and argument essays to show that you understand both sides of an issue and can support one side or the other. In the workplace, corporate position papers are used to argue for or against business strategies or alternatives. The ability to argue effectively is a useful skill that will help you throughout your life. 221 CHAPTER AT–A–GLANCE Position Papers This diagram shows two basic organizations for a position paper, but other arrangements of these sections will work too.

...For the exclusive use of Z. Shan, 2015. 9-913-560 JUNE 10, 2013 LINDA A. HILL ALISA ZALOSH Wendy Peterson Introduction “Could you bring us the check, please?” Wendy Peterson signaled the waiter, breaking the awkward silence that ended the annual review of one of her direct reports, Fred Wu. On paper, Wu’s performance was impressive. Within eight months of joining the Plano, Texas, office of AccountBack, an accounting software and services company, Wu had signed the region’s largest client and promoted AccountBack’s products and services among the Chinese business community in Plano. Despite these achievements, Wu’s review ended uncomfortably. Though they’d worked together for a year, Peterson struggled to bridge the distance between Wu and herself. Over lunch, Peterson praised Wu’s efforts to broaden his professional skill set by attending weekend sales seminars and networking with colleagues to better understand the business. These efforts, she noted, surely contributed to his success in retaining his large, but only, client. Peterson then reminded Wu of her concerns. “Fred, I’d like to remind you that your primary focus should be on new business. It seems as if you are spending too much time managing your one client, and that’s not your job.” Peterson continued, “As I’ve mentioned before, I’d like to be kept abreast of your development efforts, so I know when and if you need help from me, or someone else in the company. I expect you to summarize your...

...Online College: The Better Way to Higher Education Ollie St Jules Devry University The Need and Want for Online Schools With all the things going on in an adult’s life, school should not make it more complicated. However the longer the person waits to attend college the harder it seems to work into their daily lives. This is where I believe online learning comes into play. Choosing a college is never easy, but before you pick the specific school you want to attend, you must first decide whether you want to pursue an education at an online university or a traditional college. Online education like everything else has its pros and cons. I’m not saying that online courses are for everyone but they are very beneficial in my life. With me being a full time parent and employee I find that online education is the best solution for continuing your education on your terms. Online education has many benefits that lead me to recommend this option to you. It has been shown to have better success rates, it’s convenient and flexible, it cost less to attend, and it also opens you to the new technologies that are being used in nearly every occupation. One of the top reasons I would recommend online learning would have to be the success rate that is garnering. Beginning around 2000, several studies, including meta-studies (review and analysis of hundreds of studies selected for their rigor), began to find significant differences in favor of online learning. These studies culminated...

...Narrative of Adolescence Years Abstract This paper is a narrative of my adolescent years from twelve to eighteen. I label these years of awkwardness and pain off a hit show from the early nineties called, “The Growing Pains.” Similar to the characters in the show I struggled creating a personal identity and had difficulty blending in with societal norms. As a result I suffered from much insecurity, false conceptions of beauty, and depression. Up until writing this paper I felt these ideologies and feelings were better left in the past. However, I now understand these experiences shape my current beliefs and will affect my identity as a counselor. Therefore I must address these experiences and deal with them emotionally. As I relive these moments I will correlate my development with the research of the following theorist: Piaget, Erikson, and Seltzer. By showing correlation of my development with their theories I will prove many of experiences as an adolescence were typical of an American teenager. Looking into the mirror I was frustrated. Why isn’t my hair pretty? Other girls wear their hair straight. Why did mine always have to be braided? Why couldn’t I have a relaxer to smooth out my curls? I shook my head in frustration and began to look for the hot comb. On my first day of middle school I was going to look pretty like everyone else. I was going to have my hair straight and laid to the side. My mother usually kept the hot comb under the kitchen sink...

...Banners: One of the most effective ways to market an apartment complex is by hanging a simple banner off of the building facing the street; this is particularly useful if your complex is near a major highway. If you are located away from main streets, consider putting up a sign that says "Apartments for Rent" with an arrow indicating the direction. Many people search for apartments by driving around neighborhoods that they like, and a banner or a sign is an easy-to-see advertisement that does not require a large investment. Before using signs, check your area's regulations on their use to avoid incurring fines or other penalties. Craigslist: When searching for a place to live, many people head directly to the Craigslist postings for their city. To post your apartments, simply visit the Craigslist page for your area and click on the "post to classifieds" button. When advertising on the site, avoid placing logos and generic floor plans; often, readers will skip directly over these. Instead, write a basic listing for each available unit and include details about utilities. To increase the hits for your ad, be sure to include prices, offer an email reply option, and post pictures with the listing. Universities: If your apartment complex is appropriate for students, consider looking into advertising with a local university or even a community college. Many schools offer off-campus housing listings, and you will usually be able to include your rental units for free. If the...

Criselda D. BSHM 2nd Semester March 2014 CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND The Department of Health’s (DOH) Food Hygiene Inspection Program is risk-based. This means that those facilities that pose a greater risk to the public becoming sick from consuming their product are inspected more often than those that pose a lesser risk. The amount of risk is determined by risk factors. These risk factors include the type of food served, amount of population that is required, the population that is served, and the quantity of food that is prepared. Cafeteria workers have made many students sick by not wearing proper gloves or reporting to work when having infectious disease. Food borne illness are especially concerning for children because they do not have the immune system needed to handle virus unlike adults. School ask for help for the checklist to know what sanitation standards are needed. International School for Food Protection (ISFP) was developed to provide an environment different from traditional professional adults learning experience. According to Chuck Jolley, to meet the complex food safety facing the Food Industry, the ISFP...
