Charles Rich Summary

For Dustin’s Senior Project he chose to do his about being a teacher/coach. He swore he would never become a teacher because they get paid terrible wages, and other reasons. He went to college at the UO and had no clue what type of degree he wanted to go for, so he chose Biology and Physical Geography for his undergraduate. Later, he came back to the UO and got free tuition if he taught a class for a professor, Michael Strong that Dustin had become close with. He graduated the UO and become a

This case is about Dave Armstrong, a 29 year old second year MBA student of Harvard Business School. Immediately after his graduation from a small liberal arts college in Texas, he started working for Thorne Enterprises as a computer Programmer. After eighteen months in the job, he quit to go into life insurance business in Amarillo. He applied to Harvard Business school but hadn’t considered what he would do, once accepted, he decided to go there as he and his wife wouldn’t have to compromise on their lifestyle as he would still be receiving renewal income from his old policy holders.

As a Bruin Ambassador, I go to local high schools, college fairs, and on-campus events to represent UCLA, motivating high school students to apply to college and pursue a higher education. It is such a rewarding experience to work with students and to help them make UCLA their reality, especially alongside fellow Bruin Ambassadors. We work as a team with the same goal of inspiring students--particularly first generation--to pursue a higher education. Bruin Ambassadors support each other in navigating tough questions, comments, and inquiries we get from students, parents, and counselors about race, class, and wealth in regards to education when we attend college fairs and events together. It is rewarding to craft sophisticated answers that are

When I was a child, I never fully understood the importance of school. As I grew older my parents took the care to teach me that education, especially one that is free, was a privilege and would offer opportunities for success. For the two of them, Immigration to the United States offered prospects of a better life, yet to do so they needed education. So, as a result I have acquired that by learning I can reach my aspirations, but to reach that point I must be diligent, determined, and well-rounded. I aspire to go to college, and eventually help heal the world.Thus, why I believe that I am a well-suited Candidate for the AP Capstone Scholars’ Program.

Through high school he was good with math, and was looking for a job that involved math and money, so he decided to be an accountant. Between his junior and senior year, his dad took him to an actuary firm to see if he would enjoy the work. Spring break of his junior Mr. House and his mother did a tour of colleges in the south which included North Carolina State, Auburn, and Georgia Tech. He remembers coming out of the student center and noticing that Tech did not look like it was in the middle of a city. Through his senior year he was still considering actuary work or possibly engineering, so he applied to NC State and tech knowing that he was in the Presidential Scholar’s program at both schools. His mother found the Presidential Scholars program and helped him apply for it. For the president scholar’s program all of his materials made it to Georgia Tech on time but his essays had been lost in transit, so Georgia Tech gave him another chance to reapply. A couple of weeks after the deadline Mr. House’s original application had arrived at Georgia Tech mangled into pieces with a stamp that said “Damaged by Postal

A major step towards pursuing my career was deciding on a college to attend. Visiting TWU was like a breath of fresh air. Like Sotomayor with Princeton, I immediately made a firm decision to make it my school. Ironically, Sotomayor’s moment of distress when she visited Radcliffe was a lot like the one I experienced when I visited the University of Texas in Arlington. Relating my important life decisions to those of judge Sotomayor has been reassuring. I had a lot of insecurities about not being good enough at TWU. Sometimes, however, I tend to sell myself

Not only that, it is acknowledged that he graduated with grades, “good enough to get into Harvard Law School”. This tremendous accomplishment is merely passed aside; however, it is a testament to McCandless’s ability to succeed academically and, though McCandless is strongly opposed to this, planning for the future. Chris McCandless scholastic achievements also supports the notion that he knows what he is doing when he makes a decision, however bold and daring it may be.

What better way to support your conclusion than the people who actually survived, like Charles Ball starting from chapter 5 and Rachel from chapter 3 that endured slavery during that time and he used slave narratives as well. Baptist he interviewed people and read there slave narratives to gather information to write this book. It took him twelve long years to write this book, countless research from historians, activist, librarians and etc. he came off very persuasive in his view point of changing persecutions on how American became a capitalism off the backs slaves. He used judicial records, published statistics, manufacturing data, plantation records, and the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade Database, he reference the Economic Research department

Theodore was a senior, and the smartest kid in his grade. Since his freshmen year, he took only honors and AP courses; it was rumored that he didn’t have a single A- on his transcript. He had been apart of the Varsity Track team since freshman year, but had never ran a race. His mother was a wealthy entrepreneur, who made the majority of her money selling rubber ducks. His father was a college “packager,” and spent his days telling struggling high school juniors what extracurriculars to take. Most of his clients ended up not getting into college, but he was the only “packager” in the area, so there was no one else to go to. Theodore’s older brother was a senior, graduating from Stanford with a double major in Computational Neuroscience and Political Science.

I’ve had many experiences, both professionally and personally, that have ignited my desire to serve the public and participate in pro bono during my law school career. I’m very interested in the Miami Scholars Program, being mentored by public interest lawyers and upper-class students, and participating in a team that is dedicated to a cause, such as children’s needs. I’m also very interested in the Miami Street Law program, working in the local high schools, and teaching civics, a subject that made a long-standing impression in my life and of great importance to our

Shannon Williams is an African-American male, who attends DePaul University. He’s currently a junior majoring in Communication and Media in order to pursue his dreams of working with a professional sports organization. Over the years, Mr. Williams has encountered a lot of adversity. Getting dismissed from NIU back in 2012, he fell victim to the statistic of being a college dropout. He didn’t know what his next move would be as he sat at home from the couch with no source of income, friends nor vision. Within 6 months, he started to realize that he messed up a big opportunity and took college for granted. Mr. Williams got another opportunity to enroll back in school at Wilbur Wright College, in the fall of 2012. This time around, he wrote down

In “Colleges Prepare People for Life”, Freeman Hrabowski writes about the benefits of going to college and the things that are, and should be, available for potential college students. Hrabowski says that more opportunities come to those with a college degree, rather than those with a high school diploma (690). His argument is effective because of his strong ethos, while it is ineffective because of his weaker logos and pathos. Hrabowski has been the president of the University of Maryland for the past 23 years.

I must make note of Andrew’s exceptional academic performance. Out of a class of 131 students, Andrew is ranked eighteen. Andrew’s academics are a high priority and he has maintained his grades well above average. He has challenged himself in taking Advanced Placement classes along with Honors level classes. Presently, he is dual enrolled at Bloomsburg University participating in the STEM Magnet Program. His performance is a direct result of his hard work and strong focus.

First, I asked him to discuss his educational background and how he began to practice law. Mr. Dunlap, a native of the Dallas area, completed his undergraduate degree at the University of Kansas where he studied history. He said that while he thoroughly enjoyed his degree program’s content, he did not see a future career for him with history and given that many of his older family members, including his mother, were practicing lawyers, law school seemed to him to be a natural next step for him. He returned to Dallas to get his law degree from Southern Methodist University (SMU). He said that, he felt extremely lucky that his parents were able to help finance his legal education, so finances were not a major factor in his law school decision. When I asked him how he came to choose SMU, he indicated that the two most prominent factors were the location in the state he wished to practice and the school’s estimable reputation in Texas and the surrounding states.

The next day at kindergarten Charles hit a boy named Chris and swore at him. Then the teacher washed his mouth out with soap and he got spanked. Today, there was a parent teacher interview and Laurie’s parents wanted to go. Laurie insisted they didn’t have to go because he didn’t want them to see Charles. His parents got very suspicious and started to believe Charles wasn’t real.
