College Representatives Role In The Honors Program

The Honors Program student embodies the virtues of independence, academic talent, intellectual curiosity, and persistence. In a brief essay, of approximately 500 words, please tell us how your reasons for admission to the Honors Program as well as your long and short terms academic goals speak to these four virtues. In doing so, you might consider the following questions:

I should be in NJHS because I believe I have all the qualities it takes to be a productive member within NJHS. The five pillars of National Junior Honor Society are: Scholarship, leadership, service, character, and citizenship. During this school year, along with academic excellence, I was also a leader. When I think of a leader, I think of a person who empowers others by showing supreme honesty,integrity, innovation, communication, confidence, and empathy. I showed this by taking charge of things that seemed derailed.

The National Honor Society is a group whose members are known for their academic accomplishments, leadership, and integrity. This group is greatly prestigious and I am honored to be invited to apply. This group also contributes a great deal towards the community, which is something that I am interested in doing more of. Until now, I have not gone out of my way to do much service and being in this group, I would have a higher motivation to do so. I would like to experience more giving to the community because whenever I have helped others, I felt satisfactory and valuable afterward. This society would be an excellent opportunity to be a bigger part of the community.

As someone who loves new people and new experiences, I am confident I would be an energetic and positive contribution to my class and community. Having gone through two knee surgeries within two years I found that positivity is an invaluable part of recovering as well as maintaining the same drive and passion as before the two injuries. The ability to be positive is a precursor to building resiliency, and is, therefore, one of the most essential traits a successful person can have. In addition to staying positive and upbeat, I also find it imperative to give back to the community in which I live, wherever that community may be. Participating in the National Honor Society instilled in me the significance of serving one's community. Helping the

I have demonstrated leadership in a several different ways. During middle school, I was a member of the National Junior Honor Society. In fact, I gave up a majority of my study halls to help out the advisor. I am currently a captain of my fall sport. Because I hold this position, I help the underclassmen during games, encourage them, and resolve conflicts. In addition to that, I used to be a teacher’s assistant to a second grade religious education class. Next year, I plan to join student government and maintain leadership positions.

This Colloquium was important for us, the students of The Honors College, to attend because it granted us advice and knowledge in regards to an issue which is incredibly relevant to us, consent and campus safety. We as college students are a vulnerable population since, according to the information provided to us by the speaker, 11.2% of college students, graduate, and undergraduate, in America will experience some form of sexual assault. This means that sadly we must be prepared to deal with situations like those and to do so we must be informed about what to do if such a situation presents itself. The speaker also made sure to give us advice on what to do when we are not in such a situation ourselves but are witnessing it. Her suggestions

National Junior Honor Society will be a great opportunity for me. If I am accepted into NJHS I plan on keeping up my 4.0 average, balancing between school and outside of school activities, continuing to help my community/peers, and creating a specific idea to make a positive impact at the school. The next 3 paragraphs I will be stating why I will be a great member of NJHS, why it's good to help people, and something I could do to positively impact my school.

I am honored to be a candidate for the National Junior Honor Society. This organization means a lot to me. In elementary school, I hadn’t really put much effort into my work because I didn’t know that it would make such a difference in my life. However, in the fourth grade, I realized that what I did would make an impact on the rest of my education. If I didn’t do well then, I wouldn’t make it into honor classes or AP classes, meaning I couldn’t get the higher education I desired. I then began to work harder and my determination increased. My hard work paid off because during my sixth grade graduation, I was one of two students that received the gold for the President’s Education Awards Program (PEAP). Knowing that all the effort was

For applicants to the Honors College, I would ensure the most qualified candidates admission to the college.We are not just seeking students with a high academic standard, but someone who can utilize and build upon the reputation of this program. To do this, I would ask a simple, logical question. However, it can elicit a multi-level response from students to see how they respond to the question posed. I would ask the question, “What do you intend on achieving while a member of the Honors Program?”

Any person who leads a group of people knows that successful leadership mandates responsibility for the status of the group. Though the status may change, the fact that the leader is significantly responsible for the status does not. Unfortunately, a negative status often encourages the group to point fingers at the leader, while a positive status encourages the group to pat itself on the back. However, if there is any wisdom I have gleaned in my seventeen-and-a-half year existence, it is that lamenting human nature is as useful as trying to appease a spontaneous, 9:55 PM Chipotle craving (my nearest Chipotle is twenty minutes away, and it closes at 10:00 PM). As a leader in times of great status and poor status alike, I know very well that

The most important reason why the college is still existent is to ensure that all states are equally represented in the election of the president. The voter enjoys the value of the college vote since it protects him or her from electing someone who is not fit or responsible enough to hold the position of the president of the United States. The college vote is also valuable to a citizen since the delegates seating in the college are selected by the citizen (Bromwich 2). Therefore, they represent his or her will and opinion to the fullest. Another advantage of the college is that it produces clear and legit winners. The difference between the presidential candidates in the college vote is usually bigger than the one in the

As a high achieving honor roll student, my college education has always been a priority from the time I was young. Florida has become my new home and I would love to attend a university in this wonderful state. I moved from Colorado in May of 2016 and have become more dedicated to school ever since attaining my straight A’s in high school credit classes. Academics are always on the forefront of my mind and it would be quite endearing to finally have all my hard work pay off and be granted a scholarship.

Freshman year of high school was a scary, but an exciting time. Going into a new building with new teachers and three other grades is terrifying. But this story is going to talk about my most memorable moment: getting my letter and being accepted into Freshmen Academy Honor Society. Winter of early 2014, i got my letter in the mail about being eligible to apply to be in Freshman Academy Honor Society. Which shocked me, but it also made be happy. It showed me that I’m capable of a 3.0 GPA or even higher.

On Oct. 21, students were selected to be in National Honor Society during a “tapping” ceremony at the high school. Almost all of the students and staff at GHV are in attendance of the ceremony and act as onlookers. During this ceremony, students who are either juniors or seniors meeting the NHS requirements and having submitted an application wait in anticipation as current members walk around the auditorium delivering paper slips of admission.

To an extent, my grades test scores, and class ranking are accurate predictors of my potential success in the Honors College. I have had over a 4.0 my whole high school career and am tied for 1st in my class ranking. My test scores are also above average. Knowing this, I feel like I would have success in the Honors College. However, I feel like how well of a relationship you have with the professor also will help with my success. I worked well with the teachers at my high school and community college. I know that my grades, test scores, and class rank would indicate that I would have success in the Honors
