I have been working all my life, towards my goal of being a veterinarian. I am working towards that goal by taking animal science next year, which is the only veterinarian class available to freshmen. I am soon going to volunteer at the Monroe Animal shelter, to learn more. My family and I have taken in many stray animals and found them homes for foster animal. We have had many animal births in our house, including cats, dogs, and chickens. We make sure our animals are well taken care of. Before we give the foster animals new homes we do thorough background checks. I am learning about organic farming and that is why we raise our chicken from egg to free

    “When your music begins, you will be in competition mode.” I took a deep breath, it was showtime. I was introduced to the world of competitive dance in August of 2011 and ever since, dance has been the outlet for all of my emotions. I started off as a shy little girl who hid in the corner, barely extending her limbs as I attempted to mock those in front of me. As time elapsed, I persevered through challenging ten hour practices and the taunting of my peers.…

    Joining the New Visions program was one of the wisest decisions I have made. When nurses that I shadow at Unity Hospital express how jealous they are that they didn’t have a program like this when they were in high school, it reminds me to take advantage of this opportunity that not every student receives. I am confident that when I graduate college, I will be able to recollect this program, and how it led me to be successful. I will reminisce about the long hours dedicated to each college-level assignment in determination to receive a grade in the high 90’s, or that moment when I witnessed a five pound baby be born from a cesarean delivery, or even when I stood next to the operating table observing a total knee replacement surgery, while the surgeon and nurses took the time to teach me about what they were doing--an opportunity that not even college nursing students were able to see. Every assignment I completed, conversation I had, and person I met, has transformed me into a more educated and open minded student.…

    There is an ongoing melee between the Congress and the President, over who has more control and impact. Congress essentially dominated the 19th and early 20th Centuries, as well as during the “legislative epoch”. Following this, the Presidency conquered in the middle and late 20th Century. In my opinion, currently in the 21st Century, Congress has the edge in power and influence, over the President.…

    Century Twenty One represents how the term slaves existed and suffered. I was curious to see how my interpretation of the painting correlated with the actual meaning. First I wrote down an analysis of what I derived from the painting to understand what I could grasp from it. When I first glanced at the painting I just assumed it was a man running from a forest fire. As I thought deeper I saw was a man who was african american who escaped the plantation running through a nearby forest.…

Such scholarship has developed a series of dates for the writing of the Gospels; the proposed dates raise several questions about the historical accuracy of the canonical accounts. This paper will first discuss the questions raised by the modern dating system. It will then discuss some of the responses that have been developed by believers and scholars.…
