...| The High Costs of Medical Education Impacting Future Physicians | Module 5 Essay | | | 3/9/2014 | Jacquelyn Q | Summary Thousands of recent college graduates with medical educational loans to pay off are putting their plans for better lives on hold. Medical education tuition and medical student debt have increased dramatically during the past two decades, even though loans and grants are available on conditional terms, students continue to find it impossible to receive a medical education. As an investment, medical education is an excellent choice; its net present value is more than a million dollars. Cost is nevertheless a strong deterrent to potential physicians, such as myself. If tuition and indebtedness continue to increase while physician incomes does not, medical schools may have increasing difficulty recruiting qualified medical students. If tuition continues its rapid increase, potential physicians may find it extremely difficult to repay their medical school debts, and some students may be deterred from attempting a career in medicine. These decisions could have a devastating impact on our health care system. Recent increases in medical education tuition and high levels of indebtedness among graduates are matters of concern to me. Although concern about rapidly increasing costs is seen throughout higher education, the situation in medicine appear especially troubling in view of the much higher levels of indebtedness and the lengthy...

...Kevin T. Ellis English 155/Ms. Quinn 26 March 2013 Essay Should Colleges Accept Senior Citizen Student Imagine sitting next to someone’s father or grandmother in a classroom, at first it may feel awkward having a senior age classmate. Later you find they are just well on their subjects both in the classroom and online, and might be someone to consider as a study buddy on a class project. Keep in mind to those older Americans returning to school, the world of the classrooms, can seem both foreign and intimidating. For some senior citizens, taken online courses also eliminate the fear of feeling out of place, where being in a class full of decades-younger students may make them feel, shamed at not having completed their education. Being an online student, they do not have to share their ages or educational background. The flexibility of online courses is also beneficial for seniors with ambulation problems, allows them to still work on class assignments from home. When thinking of education and senior citizens that are returning to school with hopes in getting the degree they missed in the past has their families feeling very proud just to think that they're actually taking advantage of the opportunity that the government has given them to go back to school. Younger students are true believers of the fact that no one is ever too old to learn. The older generations, with the disruption of the wars and the increasing financial insecurities, had to take a back seat to the...

...| Overcoming The Challenges | What lies ahead for the new pediatric satellite clinic | | Abstract The purpose of this document is to discuss the opening of a new pediatric satellite clinic in a place of my choosing. For this document, I will be choosing Charlotte, NC; which is close to my hometown. This essay will discuss several challenges that lay ahead with this project, such as; recruiting and retaining staff; types of services and resources; building rapport with the community and surrounding counties; finances and profitability of the clinic; technology; and compliance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations. These challenges will also be further broken down and explain ways that administration can overcome these challenges so that the project is successful. Lastly, there will be a discussion on specific skills and knowledge that administration needs to utilize when opening the new clinic and to manage staff. The decision to expand the Pediatric Community Care Center has provided other communities the chance to receive quality care close to their home. This decision also poses great risks and challenges. Overcoming these challenges will be no easy feat; however, with careful consideration and implementing the right course, this project should be a success. The new Pediatric Satellite Clinic will be located in Charlotte, North Carolina. This area has a population of around 773 thousand, with around 20% of that population being children...

...ork2012 - 2013 Catalog A Message from the President “Sullivan University is truly a unique and student success focused institution.” I have shared that statement with numerous groups and it simply summarizes my basic philosophy of what Sullivan is all about. When I say that Sullivan is “student success focused,” I feel as President that I owe a definition of this statement to all who are considering Sullivan University. First, Sullivan is unique among institutions of higher education with its innovative, career-first curriculum. You can earn a career diploma or certificate in a year or less and then accept employment while still being able to complete your associate, bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree by attending during the day, evenings, weekends, or online. Business and industry do not expand or hire new employees only in May or June each year. Yet most institutions of higher education operate on a nine-month school year with almost everyone graduating in May. We remained focused on your success and education, and continue to offer our students the opportunity to begin classes or to graduate four times a year with our flexible, year-round full-time schedule of classes. If you really want to attend a school where your needs (your real needs) come first, consider Sullivan University. I believe we can help you exceed your expectations. Since words cannot fully describe the atmosphere at Sullivan University, please accept my personal invitation to visit and experience...

...PRINCIPLES OF SENTENCING: TOWARDS A EUROPEAN CONVERSATION Paper delivered at Conference on “The Limits of the Criminal Law” at Leiden University, January 23, 2008 and subsequently published in Cupido (ed), Limits of Criminal Law (Nijmegen, 2008).[1] Tom O’Malley Senior Lecturer in Law National University of Ireland Galway First, I would like to extend my warmest congratulations to the students of Leiden Law School for having organised this conference. Thanks to their vision and energy, representatives from several European countries have gathered in this historic venue to discuss some key aspects of criminal law and criminal procedure. More often than not, we think of European law solely in terms of European Union law, the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights or both. Needless to say, the study of European law even in this limited sense is of the highest importance given its impact on our national legal systems and our daily lives. However, growing levels of legal and political integration now demand that we broaden our vision of European law to encompass the domestic legal systems of individual European states. Some work has already begun in this regard,[2] but it is only on rare occasions such as this that we can engage in a meaningful exchange of ideas and information on areas of common concern. Criminal justice is a most appropriate and worthy topic with which to begin. In times past, sentencing would not have featured very prominently...

...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 you to get bright opportunities when working which can make your life and family. Students could also try to get student loans, or grants to help out aiding the financial needs in college. I've researched many education grant opportunities and am really excited about this one.
