a rise in unemployment as well as in the Search Model. Price then goes to discuss how in 1981 they conducted a minimum wage study they found that a rise in the minimum by 10% lead only to a decrease in jobs by 0-1.5% in teenager employee, ages 16-19. He explains we are unable to tell how it affected adults and that teenage employment is more conclusive, with what we are looking at and for. He tells us of a study done by Alan Krueger and David Card, a more recent study, on employment and unemployment in the two states, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. New Jersey had just recently increased their minimum wage and Pennsylvania hadn’t. They focused on teens, and fast food restaurants, and found little to no change in employment in New Jersey despite the increase in minimum wage. In retaliation, David Neumark and William Wascher came out with a book, countering the findings of Krueger and Card, their argument. Then afterwards Arindajit Dube, Sylvia Allegretto, William Lester, and Michael Reich came out with a similar study and were able to confirm Card and Krueger’s findings. With so much controversy a CBO Study, a study run by the government took the two findings of Neumark and Wascher and Dube, Allegretto, Lester, and Reich then split them in half. It then concluded that a rise in the minimum wage would lead to a lose of 5,000 jobs throughout the entire United States. Overall Price’s arguments were strong and he backed his claims with facts, making it easier o see his side of the…
Within “To David, About His Education” by Howard Nemerov and “Flash Cards” by Rita Dove, there is a similar theme of the expectations and results from education. In one poem, education is used as a constant, structural mechanism to grow and become an adult, while for the other, it is a form of anxiety after constant repetition. These poems are interesting to compare due to their underlying anxiousness that is felt by the ending of both poems. One is an anxiety about how education is a constant…
Blackstone Lake. David obtained his own Free Grants of Land (Lots 2 & 3, Con. 11, Conger) in May and July, respectively in 1901. These were neighbouring parcels of land to his older brother Sandy and he had already started settling the land before having full legal title, a most common practice.

A tragedy visited David and Olive on May…
leaders gain more and more influence within an organization there can become a sense of deserving recognition, perks and service without having to work for them. Goodall gives the example of why King David would settle for a one-night stand with Bathsheba. David believe he deserved her. Perhaps David thought, “I’m the king, I can do anything I want, and I’ve earned the right. I am entitled to this.”12 However, the results were devastating for David, Bathsheba, Uriah and their descendants. In…

While the card drawing technique is a playful method of random homework selection, it answers the call of Cooper et al. [4] in considering “non-achievement-related effects of homework” (p. 54), and more specifically addresses two contemporary important issues facing mathematics educators. The first is classroom attendance. Romer [18] discussed how absenteeism is “rampant” in undergraduate classes, adding that “steps to increase attendance, including making attendance mandatory, may deserve…

In the future, we hope our solution will further be able to help Kilroys Sport’s by increasing their…
Yellow Card It is an average day at Cumberland Elementary; my face warms from the sun gleaming through the windows, and I sit in my desk in Mrs. Huffman’s second grade classroom. It is a rather cheerful classroom; chairs of all different vibrant colors stationed at each desk, my own being purple. A cushy rug with a checkered pattern displaying the alphabet fills space between the desks and the chalkboard. The wall to my left has the sticker board marking how many teeth each student has lost. I…
