Liberty University: Chapter Analysis

“fearful’—does Gene, the narrator, visit in the opening pages? How does he generally describe each location?

For this book analysis, I read the book A Piece of Cake by Cupcake brown. It is a memoir told by Cupcake about her life. She starts the book at age 11, when she was living a normal and pleasant life with her mother in San Diego. She was quite close to her along with her step father (who, at the time, she thought was her biological father), and her uncle. Then out of nowhere, she finds her mother dead in her room and her life is shaken into disaster. The court system had to turn both her and her brother over to her biological father whom she never met, instead of giving her to the man she was raised by. Her father then sent her to a foster home where she was raped and beaten constantly. When she

Chapter 21 of Everyone's An Author with Readings (Andrea Lunsford et al.) focuses on the synthetization of ideas from the author and the referenced work. The sources should be properly cited and tie into your argument or idea. In research based areas it's important to have sources that are able to support your stance. The sources can be from the same viewpoint or from another view. The origin of the sources should be credible in their area of expertise or from a credible source. By balancing both the stated argument can be improved. The chapter then gives an example of a Synthesis. War, Cartoons, and Society: Changes in Political Cartoons between World War II and the Iraq War by Julia Landauer is an essay from her second year writing course at Stanford University. It first starts by referencing a relative cartoon then tying it into the effects and uses of such cartoons. However, the chapter cuts it off as the essay starts to bring out the main questions it's analyzing.

On our visit to the University Of Redlands, My guide walked backwards facing us the entire time. While walking backwards our guide made a special effort to connect with us, without seeing, venturing in the unknown. I chose the University of Redlands because of its academic rigor, diverse student population, and the beautiful campus. My interests are Business Administration, Political Science, Pre-law, Corporate and Sports Contractual Law. Attending at this remarkable University would allow me to invest in myself and would help change the world perspectives around me. A career in law will enable me to help people who are less fortunate and contribute to an established law firm. While attending the University of Redlands, I intend to respect

Christian counselors have a responsibility to their clients to integrate psychology and theology in their therapeutic approaches. Incorporating multiple components however is not as straight forward as one might think. In Psychology Theology, and Spirituality (McMinn, 2011) McMinn discusses the benefits of an integrated counseling approach that strives to promote “both spiritual and emotional growth” (McMinn, 2011, p. 5) by including a third element; spirituality, or more specifically, spiritual formation. Finding the proper blend of elements can be challenging even for a seasoned therapist.

I want to model Romans 13:8 which teaches me to, “Owe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another.” Although I love everything about Liberty, it is not as financially affordable as other schools. Regardless, Liberty is still my first choice and the $4,000 scholarship offered by the Honors Program would help keep tuition costs manageable for me. My parents taught me to be responsible with money and I want to continue to make the right choice to use money wisely as I pursue a degree. In addition, I am grateful Liberty University acknowledges that not everyone does extremely well on standardized testing; and considers overall well-rounded students, letters of recommendation, the number of honors and AP classes taken, and high school grade point average. This is one of the many reasons Liberty has become my top choice for schools: they clearly see their students as more than a single test score and are eager to help every single student grow and achieve through numerous academic

Lubbock Christian University has had a vision set out for in since its founding by members of the Church of Christ in 1957. Those who took part in the founding of LCU based it on a hope that it would grow to be highly recognized in academics while it strived to put Christ above all. Today, LCU’s mission reads, “Lubbock Christian University is a Christ-centered academic community of learners, transforming the hearts, minds, and hands of students for lives of purpose and service”. LCU does a wonderful job of creating an atmosphere that is filled with an engaged community that aspires to build others up with the love of Christ, from both staff, professors, and students alike. It is in this environment

When a student enters college, they are to usually sit and listen to hours of orientation talks and rules. Throughout this process, they are told that certain things can be found in their student handbooks. This observation is loosely based from experience on Saint Vincent’s campus. The first few things students are given is school items and a student handbook. This handbook has everything a person needs to know about their college and how it works. However, from observations on Saint Vincent’s campus, many students receive that handbook and never give it a second glance. This leads to the lack of knowledge about a policy that is important for all students to know. Even if students are not given a handbook, the school’s website offers links to this handbook and other resources.

This passage takes place when the school in Cange is built. The school gave a lot of the Haitians hope for a better future for their children and the entire country. The passage shows that even the Haitians themselves acknowledged the fact that an education could have had a great impact on them and allowed them to escape poverty. This is an especially impactful point in the book because the quote came directly from a woman who knows first hand about Haiti’s poverty. The author makes it clear that the school will not only educate Haiti’s youth, but also lower hunger among Haitian children. The author also mentions dignity when discussing malnourishment, which can be a huge obstacle when trying to fight world issues like hunger. The end is the

Gregory Institute was founded in 1870 after 5 years since African Americans bought the land to end slavery in Texas. The African American library at the Gregory School is a library that preserves most of the historical information about the African-American people especially the Freedmen’s Town’s people that lived in the Houston area after the Civil War ended in 1865. The library contains three galleries and each of them is about Education, Religion, and the Freedmen’s Town which was the center of African American community in Houston during the post Civil War era. The library also has a restored classroom from 1929, a list of honorable African American people who dedicated their lives for the city of Houston, and many twentieth century antiques

As a mother of a high school student, I feel as though it is a brilliant idea to let Mr. Ishmael Beah speak to the students. The fellow peers of your school need to value how lucky they are to be in such a sheltered atmosphere. Sensing the indisputable emotions of Mr. Beah telling his story of being a boy soldier is a lesson that should not be passed up. Understanding how atrocious it must have been to fight in a war solely based on supremacy and riches would help these teenagers understand what strength and determination really is.

We’ve all created many memories with our fellow brothers over the years, and Lee O’Connor ’76 recently shared a few of his favorite ones from his days at Rockledge. Although his initiation to the chapter was certainly not standard, he was welcomed with open arms and quickly bonded with the brothers. “One of the special parts of living at Rockledge was moving into a house with 30 new people, all with very different backgrounds, getting to know them, and building lifelong bonds and memories,” he said. Lee (known to the brothers as Sarge) said that he received a bid to join the Iota chapter when he was a freshman, even though he didn’t really attend any rush events. He never responded to his bid that year, but decided to show up the next fall. “I just

Chancellor’s Honors Reads is a book club open to all members of the Honors College and introduces students to introspective literature through informal forums with professors. My favorite book we’ve read is Paul Kalanithi’s When Breath Becomes Air, which follows a neurosurgeon’s coming to terms with his own death. I loved how Kalanithi blurred the lines between science and emotion to draw analogies I would otherwise overlook. This gets to the heart of the program. In gathering around thought-provoking works, Honors Reads has guided me through books that help me to reinvent how I read the world, to continue to pursue a curious life.
