researched a broad range of topics covered in multicultural education I stressed over what I could possibly write about in my paper. Honestly, at first there weren’t many topics that stood out to me that I could expand on in a paper. As I thought more about it I decided to write about a topic I could relate to and was a large part of my college education, Greek Life: A Culture onto Itself. Starting college is a very big transition for most teenage students. They just became adults

Wednesday at 12:00p.m., I interviewed with Dr. Thirumalai Kannan about becoming my research mentor and working in his lab. As a potential mentor, Dr. Kannan seems to be a better general mentor than a research mentor for me. He has a great personality and seems to really understand my concern. Within the hour of our meeting, he was extremely informative and let me know up front exactly would I should look for in a lab and how to go about assessing lab. He has several publications, one for instance:

I chose to read The Husband’s Secret by Liane Moriarty for my independent reading project. The Husband’s Secret was an interesting book literally based on Cecilia Fitzpatrick’s husband’s secret. Cecilia is the person I chose to do my Facebook visual on because she is the woman behind the whole story; she ties into almost every event and is one of the main characters. Cecilia is a mom of three, forty-two years old, married to John-Paul Fitzpatrick and works as a part-time Tupperware Consultant; and

“Unrequited love culminates in shattered self-esteem, crippling dependency, and uncontrollable rage” (Berman 58). Narcissus and Frankenstein are both disoriented by ostensible renditions of their own internal conflicts. The creature’s acts of violence are external representations of Victor Frankenstein’s internal rage. It is ironic that his own self-replication in the form of the creature brings him to his eventual demise. Another element that correlates with the Narcissus story pertains to the escapes

others. The isolation alone that results from being in hiding can have a major affect on a person. The Diary Of a Young Girl is a great body of work when referring to exile because Anne Frank wrote an entry every single day on the struggles of her daily life being in hiding. This book is a great representation of the worries that thousands were faced with when Hitler was in power. It is ironic that although Anne’s family was going through a tragedy themselves, they still felt fortunate enough to be thankful

Greek Life groups can be found across university campuses ranging from private colleges to state universities. Everyone has their own different reasons for joining Greek Life. The first known collegiate secret society, F.H.C., was established on the campus of the College of William and Mary on November 11, 1750 (“The Flat Hat Club,” 1917). F.H.C. stood for the secret phrase “fraternitas, humanitas et cognito,” (Bonzo, 2014). Every university has their own rules and policies that they require their
