...Programs like “Marist in Manhattan” are just what an ambitious student like myself looks for in a college. Marist College’s small class size and student-to-faculty ratio appeals to me, as I attend a smaller, Long Island high school. I like engaging in classes and learning from people who know my name. I like to build bonds, considering I am Vice President of my class for the second year in a row. Along with the various clubs and organizations like campus ministry and student government, Marist is perfect fit for me, since I am currently very involved; plus getting involved will help me gain housing points. As I would like to pursue a career in the marketing and advertising field, Marist offers top-notch business and communications programs....

...Salve Regina I grew up in a very religious and supportive community that has shaped me into who I am today. I believe that attending Salve Regina, a supportive catholic college, will help me grow in my faith; not only would I be able to thrive in education, but also grow spiritually. Providence College Through my experiences helping my community, I have learned many things. I have achieved my hours of service through alter serving at my church, participating in fundraising walks, selling daffodils for charity, skating in fundraisers and teaching young kids how to skate. I have enjoyed assisting my community in these special ways because it enables me to share the gifts that God gave me with people in need. By helping others, I have learned that service is not just about doing an act of kindness to get my hours for school over with, but rather the feeling that you have brightened someone's day. I constantly am on the look out for more ways in which I can serve my community and I believe that Providence College can assist me in...

...JMJ Marist Brothers Notre Dame of Kidapawan College Integrated Basic Education Department Kidapawan City THE FEASIBILITY OF PINEAPPLE (ANANAS COMOSUS) PEEL AS AN ALTERNATIVE VINEGAR CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION A. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY A Pineapple, is a fruit wherein you have to peel off the peelings to eat it, like any other fruits. We, the researchers, chose this as their project to prove that Pineapple peelings have other uses. We, the researchers, also noticed that the families in our country are very practical nowadays. Instead of throwing the peelings away, many families can earn something from it by using our experiment. They can produce a product and maybe start a business or they can produce it for their own use. We, the researchers, wanted to prove that nothing in this world is useless and peelings count as useful materials too, and can somehow help people to use their creative minds to make things possible out of such wastes. B. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Our country is experiencing economic crisis and many Filipinos do not have stable jobs. Our problem in waste management also has a huge impact on why the researchers chose this study to begin with. The wastes in market says it all. The following problems that this study wants to answer are the following: * Does the peeling of pineapple (Ananas comosus) can be made as vinegar? * Can this study help to reduce the waste in the environment? * Is pineapple vinegar more affordable than a commercially...

A brochure is helpful, but can read a little like a catalog. We think you need to know what your life would really be like, challenging out-of-date myths and stereotypes, so you are able to make the most informed decision possible. This is an honest look at investment banking and is based on the experiences of people just like you, who have now gone through the graduate program and come out the other side with blossoming careers. It is the inside story of investment banking written by analysts for graduates, and you won’t hear this tale anywhere else. We’re going to tell you about all the divisions you could work for, what life’s really like for analysts and show you that there’s more to banking than pitch books, power lunches and pinstriped suits. And if you still want to go into banking once you’ve heard the inside scoop, we’ll tell you about how to get there and...

This article employs psychological science to examine (a) whether online dating is fundamentally different from conventional offline dating and (b) whether online dating promotes better romantic outcomes than conventional offline dating. The answer to the first question (uniqueness) is yes, and the answer to the second question (superiority) is yes and no. To understand how online dating fundamentally differs from conventional offline dating and the circumstances under which online dating promotes better romantic outcomes than conventional offline dating, we consider the three major services online dating sites offer: access, communication, and matching. Access refers to users’ exposure to and opportunity to evaluate potential romantic...
