Geoffrey Wright, an El Paso architect, describes Henry Trost’s grand design of El Paso High School incorrectly as a “renaissance revival” in a 1991 article in the Austin American-Statesman. Although he was mistaken in this observation, he made another observation that was correct, which is that the eastern façade of El Paso High School’s six humongous columns, on top of it’s bases and adorned with acanthus leaves, is most definitely a design of the Classical Revival style. He also went on to state, “[T]he style adopted the best parts of Greek and Italian architecture centuries later.”

People drive past El Paso High School every day and never bother to admire the beautiful architecture of the 100-year-old building that towers above them. I’ve always thought it was a striking building but, like many other El Pasoans, had no idea about the history behind why it was built the way it was. A couple of books and a nice long look at the school, I now have a better understanding and appreciation for Henry Trost’s marvelous works. Geoffrey Wright, an El Paso architect, describes Henry Trost’s grand design of El Paso High School as a “renaissance revival” in a 1991 article in the Austin American-Statesman, which wasn’t entirely accurate. Although he was inaccurate in this remark, he made another observation that was spot-on,

A professional is a person who relates to a job that requires special education, training, or skill. Max Weber, in his theories believed that there was set qualifications that allowed a specific person to be regarded as a so called professional. When comparing 19th century baseball players to Weber’s ideals, this specific criterion which includes qualifications such as, full time occupation, clientele, promotions, power and doctrine, and vocational qualifications among many others help to decide whether these players can be considered professionals. According to Weber’s theory, baseball players mainly were not professionalized because they mainly lacked power, clientele, and salaries.

The farm was one of many in the estate owned by Aaron Anthony. His mother, Harriet Bailey worked too long hours in the fields around Holmes Hill to take care of him, so at an extremely young age, he was sent to live with his grandmother, Betsey Bailey. He lived with his grandma until he was six, and then was moved to a horrible home owned by the slave owner Captain Anthony, where his grandma was sold to another slave owner. The African American children at this household were given tattered linens that went down to their knees as clothes, their food was cornmeal mush given to them in a pig trough, and had

Born in 1973, Stephen F Austin is quite a crucial character in the history of Texas. Though he was born in the Wythe County in Virginia, Stephen spent most of his time during his youth in Missouri (Henderson 4). His father, Moses had a lead mining job that gave him enough returns to take Stephen to the best schools in the county. Moses however later lost the family business in the financial panic that took place in 1819 (6). Stephen is remembered for his several achievements during his time that paved way to the independence of Texas. The achievements he made earned him a lot of credit which is evident in the many institutions in Texas that are named after him such as Stephen F. Austin State University and the Stephen F Austin State Park which

From birth, it’s the experiences that shape who we become. James Farmer was a boy that was the first generation born out of slavery. He was born in Marshall, TX to a father who was a minister and a mother who would stay at home. My intellectual development was simpler than that of James Farmer, due to the time period in which he grew up in that affected his education, the way he was parented and because of the color of his skin.

It was in 1973, that a young, brazen and ostentatious Donald Trump, met one of New York’s most notorious attorney: Roy Cohn, whose name was synonymous with the rise of manipulative political power acts. Roy was known to be a ruthless prosecutor who had mastered control over all the loopholes in the law and had become the premier practitioner of hardball deal making, offering his help to defend even the mafia networks. Cohn became a business mentor and nearly a second father to Trump. Trump first hired Cohn to sue the federal government. The allegations that Trump faced had accused him of renting his prime apartments only to White people thereby showing a racial bias. This was clearly against the fair housing act which the congress had passed.

He is just a good, religious, simple-minded Russian. –Tsar Nicholas II (Russian). Grigori Rasputin was that and more. Rasputin was a lot of different things to a lot of people.
