I did not predict finding myself in a diabetic and emergency clinic for part of my summer in India. However, my curiosity to explore the inner workings of a medical center spurred me to accept an observation position for three weeks. The first day I went, there was no electricity and the waiting room was packed with patients, as the doctor was running late. I sat in the suffocating room for an hour until a nurse ushered me to a quick tour of the clinic. Walking along the dark corridor, we discovered
Insight Associate position at Athenahealth. I am currently a senior studying the interdisciplinary Science in Society major with concentrations in Biology and Sociology, in addition to my Integrative Genomics Science minor at Wesleyan University. I’m interested in the associate opportunity at Athenahealth, where I can use my passion for healthcare reform, innovative creativity, and strong analytical thinking skills to drive positive changes in our healthcare system. Athenahealth’s focus on easing administrative
Graduated with distinction. Applied to medical schools and received my acceptance. My academic and professional career was already planned at the ripe age of fourteen. As the years progressed, my passion and interest in medicine waned. I was left feeling deeply unfulfilled. The career I was pursuing had ceased to be reflective of my interests. I struggled to procure the enthusiasm to apply to medical school, putting it off until I was in my final year of university. Every time I broached
and doubts. I enjoy exploring different theories and interpretations of religious documents, manuscripts and doctrines. In my study of A-level religion i studied the Celtic Church which I found fascinating. We looked at the writings of Saint Patrick and I had a keen interest in critically analyzing and interpreting his writings.While remaining open minded I took on board many scholars theories and opinions and through class debates I feel i developed my critical thinking skills and I think
I have always wanted to make meaningful contributions to our society, and this is my primary reason of choosing to do research. I wish to purse a Ph.D. in Education within UC Davis School of Education with an emphasis on bilingualism on young children. It is fascinating to me how children at young age are able to learn more than one language. I hope to learn more about second language acquisition and make language learning and teaching more efficient and effective. The number of bilinguals in the

There are posters on the walls and artwork that the students have made. One of Erikson’s theories is that kids get a sense of accomplishment from
acknowledged (Buciuniene & Kazlauskaite, 2012; Pless et al., 2012) and while there are studies solely focusing on the role of HRM in developing CSR practices (ref) there have been other studies recognizing the two-way relationship (ref). According to my understanding of the two distinct disciplines, the relationship can be studied from the CSR to HRM perspective which enables the development of HRM policies and practices under a moral and ethical lens, and from the HRM to CSR link which focuses on
There are numerous aspects of voluntourism that are positive in nature. For example, short-term volunteer trips (1-3 weeks) can be quite beneficial in the case of dealing with the aftermath of a natural disaster. In the case of a serious catastrophe like that, it can take years to rebuild the community that it occurred in. With a continuous stream of fresh volunteer recruits, the momentum will remain at a constant pace. A short-term time frame for this type of scenario will result in more efficient
from their husbands, I have to say that is just wrong and pathetic and evil. As a feminist, I believe in gender equality. I have to admit I may be a little bias here. Women can seek self-worth from working, volunteering, and even directly participating in their daily life. People can respond to my arguments by claiming that the author does have some sharp pieces of evidence on the reasoning behind the behaviors of shopping homemakers. I, hereby, argue that shopping is just a small portions of their
