Cyrus Watkins: A Career As A Student?

going to be able to do bigger and better things with his life. If he

I believe that my academic strengths, leadership ability, and appreciation of those who are different from me make me a great candidate for the Jefferson scholarship.

Bryce enjoys being around his friends and enjoys the extracurricular activities they get to participate in. He does a great job in expressing his idea and viewpoint on things he is passionate about and receiving feedback on even though I think sometimes feedback from his peers doesn’t matter to him. Most times in group or when with teachers Bryce is the example child or the child that would be most trusted to be the leader but if chosen not to be the leader he does good in following directions.

With that said he is also a kind and polite young man and we do enjoy having him here at Bridges. We’re hopeful that he makes the choice to use his time in more productive

t's my great pleasure to recommend Jorge for the Horatio Alger Scholarship, who I got to know as her counselor for the last six years. He is very hard working, determined and motivated to excel. He is very assertive when he expresses his ideas and try to present his points of view showing respect for the other side. His AP World History teacher describes him as a very intelligent young man that constantly shows enthusiastic and his excellent comments in the class reflect his involvement in the discussion. He has excellent leadership skills. This year he was elected the Youth Ministry Club president,

Since transferring to Oklahoma State University William/Colby (I don’t know what you refer to me as in these letters) has done nothing but excel, serve, and lead. In the classroom William/Colby has maintained a 4.00 GPA while juggling two degrees, a minor, work, research, and significant amount of community involvement. This has led him to develop very good rapport among the microbiology faculty and staff. He is continually representing the Microbiology department favorably as the winner of numerous scholarship competitions. Most notably receiving the Goldwater Institutional Nomination, which is only given to the top four undergraduate researchers in STEM fields in the whole university. This nomination in derived in research that William/Colby started just 8 months ago. I remember as a sophomore transferring into Oklahoma State he was asking about research day one. With his determination and persistence he was able to get into Dr. Lutter’s lab. It was there that I saw him better to grow as a young scientist. Throughout this last eight months he has been constantly in the building working on his research. This research has result in paper that he has expressed great excitement about being a co-author on. He is also

Being a star on the football team, the student body president, and starring in school plays.

He is above grade level in reading and writing. Sometimes he gets off task, but he is able to refocus when reminded. Tighe is willing to help others and makes sure others around him are taken care of. He has been a team player and works well with others. I have loved having Tighe in my classroom this year. I hope you have an amazing summer!

Academically, Brandon has excelled in the classroom. He enjoys the rigor of the AP and honors courses he has taken. Known to be among the best and the brightest can be a lot of pressure for a young adult, but Brandon was unaffected at the notion of being among the high achievers of the school. He seems to have an innate ability and desire to learn, striving to absorb all he can and put the knowledge to use. His hard work and determination has also earned him honors every quarter throughout his high school career. I have only had the pleasure of knowing Brandon through his high school career, but I can echo what his parents say when they describe him as a responsible and motivated

There is this boy in my class his name is Wayne. He's more the quiet type unless he gets around his friends then he might get a little out of hand. If he does get out of hand all the teacher has to do is say his name and get his attention then he will calm back down and he will get his work done. I guess you would say he's a little popular and really country, also he is a hard worker. You can tell how his past affects him, he is way more mature than most teenager. His parents got a divorce when he was just seven years old. He was raised around his dad's side of the family until his parents got a divorce, after the divorce Wayne and his two younger brothers stayed with their mom. Wayne was fourteen when his grandad adopted him and his two younger brothers.

Learning is very important for him, he believes that it determines your future. He desires to become a great husband, dad, friend and someone supportive towards others. He has a significant other which he has been with for almost two years now and that he would love to marry someday. “My girlfriend has been there for me when I feel devastated, she always finds a way to make me smile.” He motivates him in everything he does, she has been a great influence on him for attending the ASU baseball tryouts. Which he will be attending at the end of September, he said “whatever the outcome is I will keep my head high, because I tried and that is what

Sherron Watkins appeared to have known “the right thing to do “, she did not act on it only until later in time when she found out that there was accounting fraud then and what she did was send an anonymous memo to Enron Chairman Kenneth Lay Kenneth Lay, raising “suspicions of accounting improprieties.” In my opinion, she raised concerns only when it was clear the ship was going down, she should have spoken up earlier. In addition, by the time Watkins blew the whistle, much damage had already been done, and the shareholders and employees were the ultimate losers. There might have been many factors that prevented her from speaking up before the company felt apart. The best think she could have done is simply by speaking the truth in the right

Cristobal’s talent for engaging with others will serve him well in many ways in business. He is very comfortable in social and business settings where communication and attention to detail is a priority. His work ethic is excellent. He is willing to work hard to accomplish tasks and goals. When in high school, he was on the cross country and track team, which required serious dedication and effort to be successful. He balanced the demands of this sport with the rigors of his academic workload and managed to achieve very good grades in the process.

I can provide you with projects he has completed over the last two and half years and areas that he has shown growth in.

I would really like some of these traits. Him being kind to his friends, or him being compassionate of what he believes him. He’s been taught at a young age that he should be nice and kind for people by his mom. This results in him also receiving the blame for people and gets him hurt by other people. This also puts him in situations that are dangerous for his health, and there has been times where he almost dies. He’s still able to keep a good mindset even though he’s being put in a situation that would make people change for the worst. It’s important that he kept a good mindset so that he would able to make solid choices when it came down to it. He saved himself many times because he’s able to make correct choices in those dangerous situations. It also made him fight peer pressure when everyone did bad things. I would like to be this person for these
