Abstract
Charles Murray’s Are Too Many People Going to College addresses the concern of many who question the theory of whether too many students are going to college. By engaging a number of experts in the discussion, questions such as the effect on the economy if the number of students attending colleges increased substantially, who would or should pay for the students who attend college, and how do the costs of going to college outweigh the benefits of employment and so on are considered. Murray’s view that ten to fifteen percent of the nation’s youth has ...

Notion of habitus

I am 34 years of age who has served 6 years in the coast guard. I still go to college but on a part time basis.
My life and that of a normal college student are different in a number of ways. Firstly, time is of matter. I am always busy since I have to cater for other things that I do outside school as an adult hence I have no free time. The normal college student is usually free and idle. They do not have any responsibilities to deal with unlike me. I have to attend school for about 4 ...

- The information provided in the Statistical Abstracts of the United States Census Bureau demonstrates a peculiar variation in the levels of students. This is based on the diverse ethnic lines that exist in this country. From the data given the section of high school level graduates amongst blacks and whites presents a situation which has developed over time. For instance, in the earlier years of 1970, the disparity between white high school graduates and the black graduates was so high. In this period, white’s graduates from high school were 54.5 whereas the black’s counterparts were only 31.4. This ...

It has been determined throughout history, education should be viewed as a fundamentally moral and political enterprise, where the cultivation of moral agency is central to the educational aims. The idea of education following moral and political enterprise should make it clear history should be void of fallacies, but in reality it is quite clear this is not the case, and that history is told from the perspective or viewpoint of the victor. “The Wars” written by Timothy Findley was originally published in 1977, and since then, it has been translated into nine different languages. This paper will compare ...

As a student on campus, I try to be continuously aware of the different measures that the campus and the community as a whole have taken to reduce the overall ecological footprint of the campus. While I understand that implementing a campus-wide change may be a daunting task, there are a number of small, relatively easy changes that can be made to campus policy to reduce the overall ecological footprint of the college community. This will reduce costs to the school in the long run, and also provide students with the skill set necessary to reducing their ecological footprint in their own lives. The ...

Life beyond college is just as confusing and indecisive as that essay I am desperately trying to formulate. Your college education is supposed to prepare for that, they say. But the truth that I realized recently is that it is not the college that should prepare me but my own consciousness. With the waves of lectures and homework and party invites that always seem to end up with everyone passed out, it would be so easy to drown in the present. I did drown once. But then, what?

There are several determinant factors that lead to distinguish educational attainment among individuals belonging to different ethnicity or racial groups. It is important to understand that the relationship between educational attainment and ethnicity is quite strong and there are noticeable differences in high school and college performances based upon one’s ethnicity. It was previously known that ethnic minority students perform poorly but statistics show that some of them are able to out-perform white students who have clear ethnic advantage over them. It is wrong to categorize and say that difference in level of educational attainment is solely dependent upon ...

Examinations have been administered to incoming freshmen at Louisiana College to determine their understanding of the basic Christianity principles. The Belief Assessment of Spiritual Essentials (BASE) has been designed to evaluate their knowledge on matters of Christianity such as the lost condition of humanity, the identity of Jesus as God, the need to accept Jesus Christ as a personal Savior alongside Christ’s resurrection. The study indicated that most students had the convictions that an individual who was good did not need a savior and could not give a meaning to phrase being born again. Other findings indicate that ...

Hypothetically, there are various expectations in regard to the results of the dissertations. To start with, the research will identify key phrases and behavioral mannerisms employed by these students when required to offer apologies. In perspective, it will most probably be established that the most common strategies that feature in these apologies include “expression of apology, expression of regret, the offer of apology and request for forgiveness”.
These, however, are not the confinements of all the apologies. While the apologies are similar, some students might employ other strategies that appear not to be widely used by all ...

In “Are College Educated Police Safer?”, Kelli Goff uses a study by Joshua Correl, a University of Chicago psychology professor to examine the issue of alleged police bias against racial minorities:

Perhaps most surprisingly, the most recent studies have found that

racial bias does not influence whom officers shoot—at least not in
the way many of us assumed. The studiesfound that those in the
general public are substantially more likely to simulate shooting if
the unarmed suspect is black, when the game was tried by members
of law enforcement they were less likely to commit similar race based
errors. (Goff, 2014).

More than 200 years ago, Thomas Jefferson pointed out that education is the key to “prepar[ing] citizens to participate effectively and intelligently in our open political system if we are to preserve freedom and independence” (Wisconsin v. Yoder 221). Today, all children are entitled to a free public education, regardless of race, religion, color, or creed. While education is not considered a fundamental constitutional right, most states have statutes guaranteeing to every child access to an education. The benefits of an education are undeniable, and few persons will have any chance at success without attaining at least a ...

Introduction
Getting nominated for the “Hall of Fame” is a great recognition and honor for any American. The origin of its conception has great relevance in the context of equality, justice, freedom, and respect for human values. It is in the 1890s, that the Rev. Henry MacCracken, president of New York State University, took it upon himself to build a Hall of Fame. It was the brainchild of this visionary who had concerns for prostitution, democracy and the Roman Empire that culminated in a "Parnassus" - a centre of importance.

The Hall of Fame, Mac Cracken reasoned, was intended to attract prospective ...

- What seems to have prompted Chavez’s essay? How can you tell?
What prompted Chavez’s essay is concerning the presence of “nearly 12 million illegal immigrants.” There is also the growing fear illegal immigrants “will never fully adapt” in the US. I can tell this when Chavez 73% of the children of half of these illegal immigrant households became US citizens. The common assumption to illegal immigrants is that they will remain poor, uneducated, etc. However, Chavez pointed out that this form of stereotyping is erroneous. She cited statistics that says illegal ...

Peter Elbow wrote a very interesting article titled “Writing First”. In it, he posits the idea that it discourages children from learning if you put reading before writing, like what is traditionally done. He also proposes that, for college students, writing before completing a reading assignment in either a creative writing class or philosophy class can help the student to approach the assignment with an open and an especially inquiring mind. What Elbow proposes is intriguing, and it makes sense. Now, I do not completely agree with him when he says that children should be taught to read by learning first to ...

In 1820 or 1821, a baby named Araminta Ross was born to the parents of Harriet Ross and Benjamin Green. The family lived in Dorchester County, Maryland, an area which allowed slavery. At some point in her early years, young Araminta changed her name to the same as her mother’s, Harriet (Chism).

When Harriet was only five years old, neighbors rented her from her master to do household chores. Since she did perform her duties well, the neighbors regularly beat her for her inadequate housework. After many failed attempts at domestic work, Harriet was given a chance at the manlier ...

My own creative process is something which has long fascinated me as it is much more than just a way of thinking: it is a whole way of life. There is rarely a moment of my day which I do not utilize my creative thinking. When you look at classic paintings, such as Vincent Van Gogh’s Starry Night, it is clear that the artist’s perception of the world around him is entirely different from other people. Today, we have learned that Van Gogh also dealt with severe issues of depression which may also have shaped his creative process.

“Sit down, child,” said Nana, her voice full of kindness. I rolled my eyes a bit; I’m thirteen already, I thought, I’m not a child. However, I acquiesced to my grandmother’s request and sat down next to her. The wooden chair creaked under my weight, indicating it was on its last legs.

It was the summer before high school, and so I wanted to hang out with my friends, talk to Derek about whether or not he liked me too, and everything else that ...

Photography is a form of art that shows the artist’s perspective in a snapshot. Photographers capture a moment in time in order to portray emotion and convey a particular message. Political photos serve as a detailed and informative example of this form of expression. Not only do they show us history in time, but they also preserve memories of the event, lest history cloud perceptions of how wars are waged. In the case of the Vietnam War, political photography was used by many pioneering photographers as a weapon, showing the horrors of the war on both foreign and domestic soil. Political photography proved to ...
