Julie: A Case Study

My name is Rainee McDaniel and I am an 18 year old freshman at Texas State University. 1. My college experience is unlike any other because I am a quadriplegic. Quadriplegia is damage to the spinal cord around the area of one’s skull and neck, (Nathalie Smith, 2013). I can’t use any of my limbs, my arms and legs are basically useless to me. My wheelchair is what gets me around, I depend on it. (Józefowski, P., & Bolach, E) 1. There are many things I can’t do. I’m not given the opportunity to live that wild and crazy college life Nobody could even begin to understand what I go through on a daily basis, until they live it. “Quadriplegia involves paralysis of arms and legs” (Nathalie Smith, 2013), 4. I can’t even use the bathroom on my own.

This incident not only exemplifies but also symbolizes the burden she feels having been born handicapped, unable to provide assistance or gain to the world. These feelings Adahs has for her life are later rebutted by her longstanding dreams of attending medical school and improving science. By achieving her academic potential, she finally recognized herself as an important asset to the world- no longer being seen as handicapped, physically or mentally.

I ask desperately that you please hear me out. All I could think of as the Student Conduct Committee, wrote my letter of failure,. Yes, letter of failure not acceptance. In reality, I am projected to be a statistic that could never graduate from a four-year accredited College or University. Eventually leading the next generation of my family into poverty and a lack of education along with myself. After four years at the University of Florida I had two options, accept the possible sanction of expulsion which will be made official in a couple weeks after you, Jen Day Shaw, the Associate Vice-President & Dean of Students finalizes and stamps it. Or, I could fight for myself being

Julie Mialaret is my mother and she is 53 years old. My mother exercises very rarely because of her intense work schedule. She says it is hard for her to have the energy everyday to work out after long work hours. She has never smoked in her life because she does not find it appealing. Mrs. Mialaret eats a very low-fat diet and eats very small portions. My mother eats very healthy and is able to maintain her weight without exercise. She faces no barriers when it comes to eating healthy because growing up she ate little portions and couldn't afford fast food. I would like to change my eating habits to better reflect my mom's diet however, I would like to incorporate some sort of exercise into my daily routine. My mom hopes to start exercising

The student that I will focus on for this work sample is an eighteen year old African American female whose exceptionality is Cerebral Palsy, as well as speech and language problems; which are mild. For the sake of this paper, we will call her Mary. Mary is mobile via a motorized wheelchair that she operates with a joystick in her right hand. Mary has little muscle mass and the muscles themselves are stiff, as a result of the disorder and her inability to walk and being in a wheelchair fulltime.

Carolina Flores has had an extraordinary experience at Casco Bay High School. She had a passionate smile as she said, “I would redo my four years here again.” Her journey before a CBHS was different. Her 8th grade year everyone kept telling her only weird go to CBHS or it's a hard school. But her mother didn't wanted her to go to Deering High school because her older sister had a horrible experience at DHS. “My older sister didn't want me to same experience as she did in high school,” Carolina said.

She learned how to come out of her comfort zone, for example, her biggest millstone was being a dj at her 10th grade year for the Halloween dance.

Geoffrey had just recently turned sixteen and his mother had wanted him to mature and start focusing on his studies. He sat in the small, pale green kitchen listening, knowing that the lecture would end with his mother saying he couldn’t play volleyball with the Patriots. He played on his high school team. He had asked his mother the week before if he could continue playing, and she explicitly had said that it depended on his next report card; it didn’t go so well. He had been getting 80% in science.

Robins uses the subject of sick days to examine the pressure students have for showing up. If someone is sick they should take a sick day. It is shocking that Audrey did not take one sick day in two and a half years of high school. A student should not sacrifice his or her health for going to when they are not healthy. When a student is sick class goes on without them.

Prior to my meeting I emailed Ms. London a copy of the questions I would ask her. For the transcript portion of this assignment I will work directly from this document. I introduced myself as a non-traditional college student and shared with her my goal to work with CPS District.
