ACE is short for the American Council on Education and is located in Washington D.C. It is a higher education organization that was founded in 1918. We know what it is now we need to see how it can help students. ACE represents University and school Presidents from across the nation providing a unified voice. Many times ACE has lead discussion about Pell and Federal Grants. This experience and ability to be a unified front can help in many different ways. One certain way is the services ACE provides.
There are two major services that ACE provides. First is the commitment to research. This commitment has allowed ACE to be the number one voice in the higher education community. Their commitment to research is only equaled by their understanding of the higher education space. This understanding has allowed them to identify portions that need change which leads us to their second major service spotting brand new practices. Their understanding and commitment to the higher education space not only in the US but Internationally as well is the reason why ACE has set up a center dedicated to Research and Strategy.

The Federal Pell Grant program has continued to support college students with financial needs for over 40 years. Starting in 1972 as the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant, the program was later renamed after Senator Claiborne Pell, whose goal was to provide economically disadvantaged students with the opportunity to pursue higher education beyond secondary schooling. Even though the program is more geared toward increasing the number of college graduates seeking a bachelor's degree, being successful at the community college level can greatly benefit post-secondary students. Some of the advantages of an associate’s degree include higher pay than a high school diploma or GED certificate, relatively quick acquisition of higher education

Genetic engineering is the process of being able to manually add new DNA to an organism. This is to try and add one or more new traits to an organism, which does not have these certain traits. An example of this being done is how bacteria have been genetically engineered to produce human insulin. Insulin is a hormone, which is produced by the pancreas that allows the body to use sugar from carbohydrates in food that is eaten for energy or to store glucose for future use. Basically insulin helps your body keep your blood sugar levels from becoming too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia). But for people with type 1 or 2 diabetes it can be a challenge to produce insulin, as their beta cells in the pancreas are destroyed/damaged or do not respond well or are resistant to insulin. Therefore these people need to gain their insulin from an external source. For many years it was gained from the pancreas of a cow or a pig. However this was very expensive and difficult, also the insulin could cause allergic reactions. This is where genetic engineering came in. Once the structure of human insulin was found in 1955 cow and pig insulin could be chemically modified to be the same as human insulin. Genetically engineered microbes now make it. They produce human insulin in a pure form, which is less likely to cause allergic reactions.
The hardest part of writing this personal narrative is finding something that properly shows what values I hold without boasting or looking prideful. When writing about myself I tend to belitte things to make them seem not as important than what they are because I feel I am boasting or trying to show off, but with this narrative that is the point. I am supposed to be showing off my values and my skills in a one page statement so I must have a sense of pride. But, in being proud of what I value, I cannot act as though I am above everyone else, and therefore, need to make my values relateable throughout the narrative. Anecdotes are helpful in doing so, but choosing the write anecdote to display what I value without being too prideful is the most
