Jackson Early College Case Study

The Early College Alliance prepares students to go even beyond college. They offer classes that equip students with the knowledge they need to do many important things (like managing a budget, for example). They teach values in these classes that other schools don’t, and I think that is amazing.

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” This quote from Nelson Mandela always clicked with me, because while many things can change the world, education is always at the root of it. The Ottawa County Early College program is an opportunity for me to practice with this essential tool. I feel that I am a good fit for the program because I have passion for my studies, am proactive in them, and I flourish under challenge. This amazing program excites me because it will help me to achieve my overall goal for my education; to positively impact the world. While I have many different ideas with what I want to do with my education, Early College will allow me to explore many different paths within a budget I

In 1937, Meridian Community College (MCC) was founded as a part of Meridian High School in the local school system. In 1965, the College also formerly known as Meridian Junior College moved from its original location to its present location. In 1970, the College merged with the historically T.J. Harris Junior College according to a federal court order to the Meridian Municipal Separate School System. There were more than 400 students and faculty joined the MJC campus. In 1980, Meridian Junior College established its own district and Board of Trustees. In 1987, the College officially changed its name to Meridian Community College to reflect its mission and the diversity it provides to a growing community (http://www.meridiancc.edu/Assets/1pdfs/catalog/MCC_Catalog_2015-2016_Book.pdf).

The NCAA allows Division II baseball programs to schedule a maximum of 50 games in a season, with a start date of February 1st. Erskine College is in Conference Carolinas which has 10 schools that field baseball teams. This means each school has nine weekends scheduled by the conference for a total of 27 games that start the last weekend of February. Each school is then responsible for scheduling the remaining 23 non-conference games however the coach sees fit. The most important part of a non-conference schedule is booking the open weekends prior to starting conference play. This will allow the team to get their conference starting pitchers on a schedule that will have them ready for the first conference weekend. The hard part in filling these weekends is that the Peach Belt and South Atlantic conferences start their conference schedule the second weekend

Throughout 9th and 10th grade, I have worked very hard academically. Yet, as I am about to venture into 11th grade, I feel as though I am ready for a challenge. Truthfully, the thought of starting college at the age of 16 sounded just like the type of challenge I needed. Furthermore, there are three main reasons why I want to attend the Mary Baldwin Early College: because I am seeking an academic challenge, because I believe that the Mary Baldwin Early College will help me to achieve my career ambitions, and because the Mary Baldwin Early college offers everything I hope to experience at a college.

Berea College’s first attempt at a campus-wide bike share program called Berea Cycles ultimately failed, while its planned replacement Berea Bike Share, has been redesigned to be successful. The design of Berea Cycles failed because the lack of security and poor regulation of loaned bicycles provided opportunity for criminal behavior, while the Berea Bike Share Program is expected to succeed because of its implementation of crime deterring factors. Through the use of opportunity theory and general deterrence, the updated Berea Bike Share program attempts to correct the mistakes and oversights that occurred with the original program.

Greetings from East Texas Baptist University – I am getting used to saying this because just four weeks ago I began as the thirteenth president of the university. While I am new to this role and place, I am very familiar with SACSCOC and your leadership as the President, because for the last twenty years I have served at Dallas Baptist University as the Executive Vice President. I worked closely with Dr. Gail Linam, our provost, in many areas including our accreditation. Gail frequently referenced you, your leadership, and wisdom in guiding the colleges and universities of the Southern United States. Your advocacy and influence has strengthened the work of higher education and the standings of our institutions with constituencies and the Federal

During summer 2016 Dominique was chosen to attend Tuskegee University’s highly selective Vet Step II program; the one week residential program for high school students serves as an introduction to veterinary medicine. Students were required to attend classes from 8:00a to 8:00p Monday through Thursday, they participated in hands-on activities and laboratory exercises, and were placed in groups of 4 to prepare power point presentations which were presented to their parents/families during an award ceremony at the end of the weeklong event. Prior to the trip, Dominique had only been out of state with her elementary classmates for their 6th grade educational field and with her Archer classmates during the NOLS outdoor educational trip in 7th

The Early College Experience Program (ECE) is one of the many opportunities offered at RNTHS. Our students are given the operrtunity to thrive in the rigorous test of college life between their Junior and Senior year. A few of the students who have excepted this challenge, of taking college classes, are Samantha Alderson and Payton Wells. Both were enrolled in English Composition I at the beginning of the year and then were given the option to take Honors English Composition II. I sat down with both students to ask them about how the program has not only been beneficial for their high school career, but how it is also preparing them for their future by teaching them about professionalism. Payton claims that, "The program gives you jump start

To add on, Bryant also offers Greek Leadership and Marketing Association appears as engaging pastimes and will benefit me in the future.
