Alabama Experience

This semester I was a lot more involved than the previous semester. After settling down and getting used to the college atmosphere. I found that there was a lot more to do and get involved with than I previously thought. Some of things things I got involved with range from sporting events, class snapchat, major spotlight, career service (job shadows), dome concerts, union trivia, art exhibition, and UNI research studies. While participating in these activities I gained friends, experience, and memorizes. These activities made freshman year fly by and also gave me a feeling of what it is like to be a Panther. Also just experience a few things that UNI has to offer.

UNC Charlotte has made a significant impact on my undergraduate career because this campus has an abundance of resources, a helpful staff, a diverse atmosphere, and plenty of opportunities for campus involvement. This university has a variety of staff, all of which have been helpful in my college experience. They are excellent about working with students so they can gain the most out of their educational experience. For example, when I have sought out more information on which portion of Spain to go to, so that I may improve my Spanish fluency, my professor was extremely helpful. She sat down with me and explained about what it is like living in Spain, tips for where to go, and what to expect from the different regions. This valuable information

In 1817, Congress divided the Mississippi Territory into two parts. The eastern part was set up as the Alabama Territory. President James Monroe appointed Dr. William Wyatt Bibb, of Georgia, Governor of the Alabama Territory. The first Alabama territorial legislature met at St. Stephen 's, located in Washington County, Alabama. As it 's first official act, a petition was sent to the National Congress asking that the Federal Government give financial aid to internal improvements. The Alabama Territory had a short life, for it was organized merely as a step towards statehood. On March 2, 1819, Congress authorized the territorial legislature to make arrangements for a constitutional convention to draw up a constitution for a proposed state of Alabama.

One thing I needed in my college of choice was that it had to be small because I knew I would be able to focus better. My first choice, Towson University, was a large school and all my friends currently go there, but God, and my perspicacious mother, clearly knew I should not go there because of the countless distractions that would have hindered my success. The small atmosphere of Catawba enabled them to have a family style relationship all around campus. I am used to this family style because it reminded me of my high school. Another reason I chose to enroll at Catawba was because of its six hour distance away from my home known as the DMV, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, area. I have been in that area all my life and living somewhere else for I think would be greatly beneficial to my development as a person and would broaden my perspective. The other aspect of moving away from where you have been all your life is that you have to leave behind all your family and friends and that is one of the hardest parts. However, you will have a newfound appreciation for them that

Mayden (1993) used E. zonatum for comparisons in describing the new species E. alabamae. Comparing Cypress Creek to sampled E. zonatum populations in the 1993 Mayden paper show that males in Cypress Creek fell into accepted ranges for known populations but looking at the means for body measurements on average males from Cypress Creek were smaller than those measured by Mayden. Female measurements from Cypress Creek paralleled those seen in Mayden’s comparison. However, females from Bayou de Chien were larger on average than females sampled by Mayden while males were similar in measurements. Walsh and Burr (1984) noted that the maximum length of E. zonatum is usually reported as 32-38mm but lacks definition as to whether those numbers refer to standard or total length. Some variation in size for such a wide-ranging species can be caused by more southern individuals growing larger due to earlier spawning periods and longer growing seasons (Walsh and Burr, 1984). Overall, it appears that individuals found above the fall line in Cypress Creek are of similar measurements to other sampled populations of E. zonatum.

The population is 201,332 and it is the capital of the U.S of Alabama and it got its name by the founder of the Alabama River Richard Montgomery, it is located in the Gulf Coastal Plain.

I have attended my current school, City Honors in Buffalo, NY, since the 7th grade. While I cherish the education and experiences I gained during my six years there, my graduating class is very small and I feel ready to move forward, grow and utilize new opportunities. When I started my college search, I knew I wanted to attend a large, diverse university with strong academics and an energetic and enthusiastic setting.

The main reason I see UCF as one of the best colleges for myself is the campus’s distance away from my home. The UCF campus is within driving distance of where I currently live, allowing me to live in the same house while I attend all my classes each day. Reputation has also always been important to me when looking for a college. If a place does not have a good reputation, I do not see much reason to give it a chance. However, UCF is known as one of the biggest colleges in the US and one of the most successful. I also had two friends attend UCF, one for the exact same major as I plan to go for and one that took a very similar major. Both of them have highly recommended UCF for the major I wish to take. Though having this kind of reputation is nice, I was told multiple times to visit the campus myself because not every college is made for everyone. So, I took a tour of UCF on a school sponsored trip and found everything I had heard to be true. The campus was beautiful and the staff were all very kind. After spending the day on the campus I knew this college, after everything I had heard and where it was located, was the one I wanted to

From the time I was in junior high, my grandmother had been telling me about College of the Ozarks and trying to convince me to attend the college. After much consideration, I decided to make College of the Ozarks my top priority when applying to colleges. The atmosphere of the college, the perfect distance from home, and the opportunity to work for my education were all major factors when making this decision. I had attended private Christian schools for most of my life, so the small campus and Christian values of College of the Ozarks appealed to me much more than the chaotic partying ways of a larger university. I knew if I attended College of the Ozarks, many of my classes would be more difficult than at a public university; however, I saw the difficult classes as an opportunity to learn more, which I believed would help me later in life. I also knew the professors at College of the Ozarks would be more caring and more willing to help than those at other colleges.

Through my experiences and achievements at California Baptist University, I can gain an academic advantage over my peers attending other schools. The amount of programs and majors offered at CBU will help me develop as an educated and experienced woman with a strong educational background at CBU. With the help of CBU, I can grow into my full potential and maintain a great headstart in entering the real world with a strong mentality of maturity. I have always maintained upstanding grades and high GPA in high school, and my attendance at CBU will merely continue my pattern of success.

I have spent time after time thinking which college would be right for me in terms of academic opportunities pertaining to the career I wish to pursue. Now after all this time I am absolutely certain that the university is the college for me. It has everything I would want in terms of college and learning environment. The welcoming atmosphere, the superb campus, and the opportunities that a young adult about to enter the real world is searching for. I cannot envision myself at no other place than the university of south Alabama.

In turn, I chose Fairmont State University as the college I desired to research for a couple different reasons. First, that is where my father attended college, and one of my friends currently attends there; my friend is also featured in the brochure. Fairmont State is also less expensive than other universities in the area. Additionally, Fairmont is located only an hour from my abode which is within driving distance, so I can continue to visit my family. I also appreciate that it is a smaller school, so each student can receive more individualized attention. Fairmont also offers a whole heap of sports and organizations to get involved in such as basketball and 4-H; I participate in both and would like to continue to do so. I have other colleges in mind, but I chose to research Fairmont State for this project.

When I go off to college I plan to go to a college that fits me. College is important for anyone’s career, and I want to be successful. That is why the university I attend has to feel right, and inspire me to succeed. Washington University in St. Louis does that for me. WashU makes me challenge myself, and ensures me that it is the perfect place to go. Some of the university’s great qualities include their majors, the location, and the community.

As I entered my senior year of high school, my range of college interests was all over the place. My mind was changing everyday from seeking a big school environment to a small college. I could imagine myself in a rural community, or could just as easily see myself enjoying college in a metropolitan area. I believe that UNCW offers the best of both worlds in the way it is not in a huge city, but not in the middle of nowhere. There is always something to do and you are not stranded as some of my friends are in their college towns.

Everything that a person encounters, either physically or just by knowledge, shapes how that person behaves and respond to everyday situations. With this in mind, I can enhance my understanding of myself and the people around me. As a result, these variations produce those distinguished interactions that people seek in colleges. Ranging from the schools I attended and even my family background brings different experiences for me. With these factors in mind, no doubt I would be able to contribute to something beautiful at The Ohio State University.
