Wheaton

The town was established by Erastus Gary, Warren Wheaton, and Jesse Wheaton (City of Wheaton). According to the Wheaton welcome sign, the suburban city was established in 1859; it is about 30 miles west of Chicago. The total population of Wheaton, as of 2016 and 2017, is 52, 894; with a racial makeup of 87% White, 5% Asian, 4% Hispanic or Latino, 4 % Black or African American, and the rest are bi-/multi-racial or “some other race” (Suburban Stats website). From my observation, the town is definitely made up of majority of Caucasians. However, if you were a passerby, you wouldn’t know that the town has a decent size Asian population; I knew of this because I lived in this small town the majority of my life, thus far, and grew up with many second-generation…

In the fall of 1940, Graham packed his bags to head up north (Wooten, 2001). Billy seemed like a foreigner in Chicago (Bruns, 2004). He spoke differently, was less sophisticated and experienced, and overall he felt like a hick (Wooten, 2001).

And along with his studies, he got a job with Wheaton College…

Third, the college did everything they could to keep the negative impact on the student to a…

Introduction to Music Studies One point that really resonated with me was in Dr. Carolyn Hart’s speech. She mentioned that sometimes God will block our intentions, our plans, with a red light in order to get us to turn in the direction He wants us to go. I was very encouraged and impacted by this idea, that particular week and the week before I had been feeling quite discouraged, I wasn’t feeling at home in Wheaton, I was feeling overwhelmed by the large workload and the (small) amount of…

This is what I tell my peers when they ask why I am considering transferring to another college. Wheaton College is an extraordinary school with some of the brightest students and most knowledgeable professors in the nation. Deciding where I wanted to attend college and what I wanted out of my college experience was an immense amount of pressure placed on the shoulders of my then eighteen-year-old self. In the end, Wheaton College won out over all of my other options for several reasons. First,…

In the article the author has severe depression and goes to a doctor to express his feelings and how he judges himself consistently.

“I’m sorry, I was just going to let you grab your coffee, but the these guys, man, they will have you here all day.” He laughed, and nodded. He seemed relieved I wasn’t a completely crazy fanboy. His face was regaining its color. “I’m Josh, by the way. I’m sure you must get a lot of attention. I’ve seen your vlogs. Sounds crazy what some people will do. Must be awful to have to be ‘Wil Wheaton’ when you just want to be you.” He looked thoughtfully a moment, and said, “It’s not awful all the…

speaks of ethics they are speaking to a person’s morals. With that said everyone has different morals. What one might see as being ethically or morally correct might not hold true or hold the same value to someone else (Greenberg, Bruess, Oswalt, pg. 741). For this assignment, we are asked for our personal opinion on Hobby Lobby and Wheaton College’s decision to not cover any form of birth control in their health care plan.

interviewing Dr. Wheaton. She is a pediatric physician at Kaiser Permanente in Hayward. I have always wanted to be a physician and since I love working with kids, I thought interviewing a pediatric physician would be very beneficial because it would give me a lot of insight on a career that I might pursue in the future.
