Bowling Green is the hateful tweets toward the black student union. However bad the severity of the offense it is still important to analyze the event and how it relates to cultural pluralism as a class. No matter how much people try to stop discrimination of other peoples it will still always be there. A couple of weeks ago in Bowling Green an example of this behavior showed us that it is currently still a very real problem. The incident was that students that attended Bowling Green State University sent
According to Kaplin and Lee (2006), collegiate student organizations give students an opportunity to obtain and develop leadership skills and to pursue assorted non-academic interests. It also supplements their formal education with secondary academic programming (Kaplin & Lee, 2006). Because of these reasons, students often are encouraged to join a student organization. In addition to joining such a group and because of the First Amendment, students have a right to organize and join these groups
The College Rioting Problem It’s a frigid January night, and the home team just won the big game so hundreds of college students pour out into the streets. The celebration begins with cheers and hugs, but quickly the tone begins to change. The drunken crowd continues to grow, blocking the streets with thousands of students and young adults. Fires are started, women bare their breasts, cars are flipped, and property destroyed as the celebration becomes a destructive riot. This recent phenomenon
Introduction I sought out to answer a rather intangible, philosophical question, which somehow is almost central to what makes this university successful. In fact, its success is the question! I wanted to understand what it is about UNC that makes it a “good,” and prestigious, school. Toward that end, I needed to investigate the intricacies of this institution, and of this question. Because the terms “good” and “prestigious” are highly subjective, I did not attempt to objectify them, but I instead
Many students from different nation-wide schools were present at this experience. The American University of Nigeria was also in attendance. At AASLE, I was awarded the Dr. Carroll F.S. Hardy Leadership Award. This award recognizes the accomplishments of an undergraduate student who has demonstrated transformative leadership, academic excellence, community service and a commitment to continuing

Budget and Schedule Expanding SG’s free printing to the Hub is a fairly inexpensive project, and it is easily manageable by Student Government’s annual budget. Currently, SG’s free printing at the Reitz Union is funded from the Computer Lab Printing fund, and the yearly budget comes from the Activity and Service Fee of the student tuition ($14.55/credit hour). The approved printing fund is calculated to be $125,740 for the 2013-2014 fiscal year, and it is approximately 0.66 percent of SG’s $18 million
useful to our community partner Jackie and the Asian-American Student Union (AASU). It seems that we have received mixed views on Asian American leadership and inclusivity on campus. There are many diverse things we can do with this research to help Asian Americans on campus feel more included and welcomed. Through our research, we determined that many students on campus were not even aware of the fact that we have an Asian American Student Union. We can take the information we learned through this process
Getting the experience to study abroad has been a lifetime dream of mine. Growing up in Sunnyside,where the resources and educational opportunities are limited, I never would have imagined it would be possible to travel to another country. I’m a daughter of immigrant parents and because of their undocumented status, I’ve never had the opportunity to travel outside the United States without the fear or risk of never coming back to the place we call home. I come from a low income household and because
how notes are taken for all students in the Glendale Union High School District, including Orlando. Typically, notes are entered onto Ms. Karter’s computer after a student is seen, and they are put into a system that every teacher and social worker in the district uses. Not enough information has been reported at this time about how, but it has been discussed with Ms. Karter that other individuals that utilize this software could theoretically read her notes on the students she sees. Because of this
One of the decisions, which could be one of the toughest, that freshmen students have to make is whether to commute or live on campus. Granted, it is understandable that first year students who come from out of state have no choice but to live on campus. The tough decision has to be made by students who live in close proximity to the University, such as myself. In order to decide which option would be best for a specific student the major differences between commuting and living on campus have to be
Metro High School Attempt to Motivate Students & Teachers to Achieve Higher Performance" is about the different ways the school system used to motivate the students to come to school (Kinicki & Williams, 2013, p.405). It is also a good example of how rewards and behavior can affect the outcome of the situation. The case study starts out with telling you about a simple phone call (Kinicki & Williams, 2013). This call was a wake up call to a habitual late student. This phone call which was early in
How Uniforms Effect Modern Day Society Students are often in a position where they are forced to wear whatever they have. In some instances, students cannot afford the uniform attire. In other instances their bodies will make wearing the uniform uncomfortable. There are more negative effects of being forced to wear a uniform. An example is being dressed in clothes that are disliked adds to the lack of comfort a student feels during the school day. In this regard, school officials should reconsider
Our daily lives involve making decisions. One of the many decisions that have been made by many people is when they decide to join a certain fraternity. This happens mostly to students in the higher learning institutions when they are joining. After joining the fraternity, they then make some judgments as to whether they had made a right or the wrong decision. One of the people who was pleased with his decision is Peter Jacobs in his article which talks about his fraternity joining. The article was
“Be a student, as long as you still have something to learn and this will mean all your life” (Doherty, 2013). As students, the researchers aim to attain success in the future; and as a guide to this path, schools are implementing such things that may help the students to achieve this. And as a result, the philosophy, vision, mission, goals and outcomes (PVMGOs) of the school were making. The PVMGOs serve as guide of the school for the students, faculty, staffs and stakeholders of the campus
teaching profession tends to be subjective by nature where a teacher is confronted with many ethical dilemmas and circumstances where an individual’s own moral code is contested by that of colleague’s, administrator’s, the school community, and the union to name a few. Campbell (1997) provided a series of examples of where teachers had felt that administrators
become the average grade among those schools. He adopts a dismissive tone when generalizing and addressing the students on their behaviors and actions. Rojstaczer found over 80 universities with data on they’re grades, using this he was able to better understand the inflation and also analyze possible solutions. His logos based writing portrays a negative connotation on todays students and their ability to achieve within the classroom. There is no hiding that the standard for grades has been on the
include reading basic terms or reviewing sounds that may be used outside of the classroom. One of the first things I did when we began this class was to look for some way for my students to work in collaborative groups and take the assignments given and understand the material. I struggled to find a happy median between my students. Some were unable to grasp the ideas because they could not sound out the words correctly. Since they do not have the
In education, the ultimate goal for every school is to increase student achievement, and this can’t be accomplished without effective administrators to lead the school and effective teachers to provide quality instruction. Hanushek stated, “It is becoming broadly recognized that quality teachers are the key ingredient to a successful school and to improved student achievement” (2007). With this known fact, rewarding and compensating quality teachers would definitely help in bringing about the desired
wouldn’t change anything about the education I have acquired at Santa Cruz Valley Union High School, everything I am learning and have learned will benefit me in college. From the very first day of high school people, guidance counselors, teachers, parents, have expressed to students, take everything we do and learn in the classroom seriously because we are planning our future, with the tools we are given. Whether students go to college or not, everyone will obtain something, memories, a diploma, a life
