Moving on, I noticed -when writing this essay, I had to take a few breaks and come back to it. Every time I wrote something that happened, the memories resurfaced, so as you read what I wrote you are hearing it for the first time; but for me, I was reliving it like it just happened. For example, when I scrivened “Driving the jeep home, was like the way my life had been for the previous year, suffocating and uncontrollable as the exhaust walked into my lungs.” (Babson) To this day, I can still smell that
College hazing has been going on for years. It started in 1495 in a college in Germany. But today, 1.5 million high school students are hazed each year; 47% of students came to college already having experienced hazing. Alcohol consumption, humiliation, isolation, sleep-deprivation, and sexual acts are hazing practices common across all types of student groups (Hirschlag).

brought Shirley to life.

It becomes very obvious the geographical location also play a significant role in the merger process, which was not a factor in the Ole-Jacob article. When two colleges are not geographically located such as mentioned above a much larger problem exists. Research says “Rutgers-Camden is located in North Jersey; Rowan University is located in South Jersey. The campuses are roughly half an hour apart by car (assuming no traffic delays) or between 45 minutes to almost an hour apart by bus”. This illustrates
principles of Entrepreneurship >>>> 1. What Is Entrepreneurship? W hat is meant by entrepreneurship? The concept of entrepreneurship was first established in the 1700s, and the meaning has evolved ever since. Many simply equate it with starting one’s own business.
