...Introduction HBCUs, formed during segregation and discrimination to educate students of color, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have played an essential role in renovating the landscape of higher education in the United States. In an era of rapid transformation, HBCUs face historic challenges as well as new complications. Sustainability, cost, quality, and mission are among many of the reoccurring issues that will require attention, creative approaches and solutions from governing boards and presidents in order to move forward. This paper analyzes HBCU enrollment, retention and graduation rates, how the hiring and firing of presidents and fundraising affects the branding of the institution. My hope is that the findings will contribute to the national dialogue about the future of HBCUs and serve as a resource for boards and institutional leaders to focus their...

...U.S. Supreme Court. Affirmative action is in essence, a policy or procedure developed by numerous institutions of higher learning to attempt to diversify their student bodies racially and by ethnicity. Looking closer at this procedure will display the advantages and disadvantages of affirmative action and college admissions. Affirmative Action College Admissions 3 Affirmative action is the practice, usually by institutions, of giving preference to racial minorities or women when hiring employees, giving awards, or deciding whom to admit (So you Wanna, 2003). Affirmative action arose out of a desire to bring minority groups into institutions and professions that had traditionally been dominated by white males. It first appeared after the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s as an attempt to accompany the new legal equality gained for minorities with social and economic equality. This paper I will discuss the history, advantages and disadvantages of affirmative action in college admissions. After explaining these issues I will state and my belief on the issue of affirmative action in college admissions. In 1961, President Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 10925, putting the term “affirmative action” its first use in relation to civil rights (Cable News Network [CNN], 2003). In 1964 President Johnson signed into law the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Included in the Act is Title VI, which prohibits race discrimination in education Racial quotas for public...

...Determining Causes and Effects Lila Thompson Rodney L.

...idea of MOOCS, massive open online courses, where tens of thousands of students can take the same class simultaneously. Is this the future of college? Nathan Heller wrote about the phenomenon in the May 20, 2013 issue of The New Yorker in "Laptop U." I recommend you find a copy or subscribe online for the full article, but I'll share with you here what I gleaned as the pros and cons of MOOCS from Heller's article. What Is a MOOC? The short answer is that a MOOC is an online video of a college lecture. The M stands for massive because there is no limit to the number of students who can enroll from anywhere in the world. Anant Agarwal is a professor of electrical engineering and computer science at MIT, and president of edX, a non-profit MOOC company owned jointly MIT andHarvard. In 2011, he launched a forerunner called MITx (Open Courseware), hoping to get 10 times the usual number of classroom students in his spring-semester circuits-and-electronics course, about 1,500. In the first few hours of posting the course, he told Heller, he had 10,000 students sign up from all over the world. The ultimate enrollment was 150,000. Massive. The Pros MOOCs are controversial. Some say they are the future of higher education. Others see them as the eventual downfall of it. Here are the pros Heller found in his research. MOOCS: 1. Are free. Right now, most MOOCs are free or nearly free, a definite plus for the student. This is likely to change as universities look for ways to defray the...

...Blake Hardnett Mrs. Douglass 18 January 2010 Genocide in Mexico This paper explores incidents of genocide that occurred in Mexico from 1945 to 2001. Research focuses on four main episodes of genocide: the October 2, 1968 massacre in Tlatelolco; the Corpus Christi massacre on June 10, 1971; and Mexico’s Dirty War that occurred from the early 1970’s through the 1980’s; and the genocide of women that has been occurring since the Dirty War. Research indicates that the first three episodes of genocide were the responsibility of corrupt government leaders and the army and police that carried out the genocide under government orders (Krauze 725-752). Luis Echeverria, a leading figure in the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) during the 1960’s and Mexico’s president from 1970 to 1976, was charged with genocide related to these events in 2004. However, the charges were dropped due to a judge ruling that the events took place too long ago (BBC 1). The fourth episode of genocide against women is due to the drug cartels and the corrupt government officials that are involved in crime in Mexico (Ramirez 1-2). From 1945 to 1964, Mexico was booming and prosperous because the Second World War had just ended and modernization and industrialization were priorities for the three Mexican presidents during those years. The presidents in office from 1946 until 1964 were Miguel Aleman, Adolfo Ruiz Cortines and Adolfo Lopez Mateos. During this time, Mexico had good relations with...

...Bullying is the use of force, threat, or coercion to abuse, intimidate, or aggressively impose domination over others. The behavior is often repeated and habitual. One essential prerequisite is the perception, by the bully or by others, of an imbalance of social or physical power. Behaviors used to assert such domination can include verbal harassment or threat, physical assault or coercion, and such acts may be directed repeatedly towards particular targets. There are four kinds of bullying in school, in which all of them is very harmful; it is Physical, Verbal, Covert, and cyber bullying Theodore Roosevelt once quoted, “Knowing what’s right doesn’t mean much unless you do what’s right.” and this quotation made by the former US president applies to everything in life. People should not commit to just knowing that something is right; they have to commit to it fully and do exactly what is right. People know that they sometimes do wrong but what they really need to do is treat people with respect, think before they commit to their actions and understand that sometimes life doesn’t offer the second chances that they often take for granted. Knowing what is right, just like knowing that people should be treated right and be respected is nonsense if you are mistreating and disrespecting other people. People should learn how to incorporate truth in their lives and they should learn to accept what is right and live with it, so that we can live in a harmonious life. As stated...
