This time I went to mission ROP in the Fremont. I have had heard about them but never looked it in detail on what they do. I was not very happy with my visit but still decided to write about it for my field trip assignment. ROP It is centrally located, right off of the 880. When I got there direction was not very clear, all gates were closed. Parking lot was huge but almost empty. Main door was closed and there were no sign if it was closed or open. Five minute later lady came out to and opened the door. She was Trudy Parker, Attendance Specialist. She asked me to come inside gave me tour of ROP. She explained there is no session going on summer but on the fall there will be class session. They are more focused on high school student. ROP
Although I have been employed with Spring City Corner Clubhouse for a year now it is allowing me to continue to learn and grow not only as a student but also as a starting Human Services worker in this field. Working with the population the Spring City Corner Clubhouse services it allows me to experience the persistence this particular population has during their road of recovery. The staff is continuing supportive in promoting further educational growth and open to any question I might
I excited that teaching in the DPP is about to become reality. Daniel and I have enjoyed meeting everyone over the past 3 months. I know Ms. Yates preferred Monday or Tuesday evening. I am going to contact Morgan Kirkland today about April’s Class zero or setting up another meeting time. I will send any updates I get from Ms. Kirkland.

Begging the question is a type of logical fallacy that “avoids the argumentative process” (McInerny 109). An example of a begging the question fallacy is when my friend argued for his point that Panera Bread is the healthiest fast food alternative restaurant. My friend, Tim, stated that “Salads and fruit smoothies are the healthiest types of food. Since, Panera Bread serves several types of salads and fruit smoothies this makes Panera Bread the healthiest fast food alternative.” Tim’s statement exemplifies begging the question fallacy because the conclusion, “Panera Bread is the healthiest fast food alternative”, does not have logical premise and reasoning behind the argument. Tim did not provide any factual information proving the fact that salads and fruit smoothies are the healthiest food option. Also, Tim did not compare the actual calories in the food at Panera compared to a typical fast food restaurant, such as McDonalds. In summation, Tim completely ignored the reasoning that backed up his conclusion, which was Panera is the healthiest fast food alternative, thus making the conclusion a begging the question fallacy.
When I was 9 years old, I attended Dallas Valley Ranch Camp. I was a camper for 7 years and every year I looked forward to going back. Dallas Valley embodies similar values and principles as to Conexus such as concern for community, meaningful difference and integrity. This camp has truly changed my life and made me who I am today. Their staff inspired me, made me feel welcome and believed in me. Dallas Valley is a place where I could be myself, have fun and grow. When I was 16, I jumped at the chance to become staff. I have volunteer for two summers and this year I will be back as paid staff. As staff, I quickly learned that I am now a role model and kids are watching my every move at all times. Additionally, I found out that kids are a challenge!
For the volunteering assignment, I chose two volunteering events: the “Norcal Community College Counselor Breakfast” and the “CSUEB Education Summit.” Both of these events are being held on the California State East Bay Campus. They are both classified as special events, and they are both hosted by the Prospective Student Services Department. Although each of these events has a specific focus, they are both directly related to addressing the needs of prospective CSUEB students.
According to Madicaid.gov (2016), “Managed Care is a health care delivery system organized to manage cost, utilization, and quality. Medicaid managed care provides for the delivery of Medicaid health benefits and additional services through contracted arrangements between state Medicaid agencies and managed care organizations (MCOs) that accept a set per member per month (capitation) payment for these services.”
I grew up going to Goldman Union Camp Institute. It was there for me even before I went to kindergarten. Everyone was always nice and helped me through my darkest days. On some occasions, I just wanted to leave and never come back, but it was always there for me. The camp always found a way for me to keep coming back. Keep having fun.
My eyes lit up as a saw all of the different clubs and organizations offered. I loved Quiz Bowl, Book Club, Dance, and Chess Club in high school and I would love to continue these in my college life. Furthermore, at Rensselaer I can pursue my personal interest in sustainability with like-minded students through Vasudha. I could quickly see that many people at Rensselaer share similar interests with me. This idea was further supported after my subsequent tour around campus. Students were studying outside or milling about in groups, but what drew my eye was a group of students in vests and holding nerf guns. I watched as they prepared for battle and then took off after one another, and I had to stop myself from asking if I could join. The people I met and the students I talked to showed me the fun and encouraging side of a school that is known for its academics. Spending a couple hours on campus allowed me to see the fun, studious, and unique nature of Rensselaer and I felt right at
Chapter. As a SHPE member we are given the privilege to be provided an outlook on the difference we can make to future generations. Last spring semester I went to my home high school and talked about the SHPE organization and other college experiences to the current senior class. This past fall semester, some of those seniors commented to me that they had joined SHPE with other universities, such as UNT Denton and SHPE UT Arlington’s chapter. Finally, through SHPE’s many events I got a chance to make many companions that I can bond with and reach out to and vice versa. Also, this year I had the gratitude to be appointed onto the Academic Chair position to provide tutoring sessions and academic resources to our members throughout their academic journey at UTD. Being part of UTD SHPE chapter has gained me so many experiences for growth for its casual to professional events and to now be an officer to continue the growth of our chapter so that we together as a familia reach our goals as minorities in our STEM
Ever since I was a preschooler and took my first trip out of my hometown, I have been hooked on the idea of journeying to new places and learning there. For me, Hotchkiss is a school that can make the idea a reality. Hotchkiss offers everything I am passionate in-- arts, academics, healthy lifestyles; what I value in my high school career-- academic challenges, fruitful opportunities, new possibilities to discover and gain from; and beyond. I also believe that I could positively impact the school with my own qualities of leadership, diligence, creativity, and more. Furthermore, the experiences at Hotchkiss that I have observed are truly unique and constructive, and it is a new, beloved dream of mine to take part in them someday.

A diseased representation of women, advocated by the media, is detrimental to the American culture (Chittom, N. Page). The National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA), asserts an upsurge in eating disorders, inadequate self-esteem, and depression cases are attributed to this illustration (Chittom, N. Page). The portrait of American beauty has transformed greatly over the years (Chittom, N. Page). At the dawn of the twentieth century, beauty centered around abundant chests and minuscule waists, accentuated with tight corsets, but in the 1920’s, this image changed to glorify flat chested “flappers” (Chittom, N. Page). By the 1950’s, the shapely figures were once again popular, but in the 1960’s, with models like Lesley “Twiggy” Hornby, thin was
The program is a United Methodist based program that repairs homes for low income families that are usually living under the poverty line in the Appalachian Mountains. I have gone on this trip a total of five times and have learned a worlds worth of knowledge every time I return. The trip has shown me how important governmental aid is for our country. It is tremendously important and vital to the lives of the Appalachian people. When the coal mines were shut down, many lost their livelihood and have not been able to recover. These trips have proven to me how important it is that we have government programs in place to help people in need, and to help them get back on their feet after a major change. This also playing an important factor in the lack of education that does happen in these areas, this is just perpetuating the endless cycle of poverty and class in our
My first day of observations had finally arrived. Filled with excitement, I opened the doors to Pleasant Ridge Elementary School, and walked into the front office to sign in as a guest for the day. I made my way to the second grade wing to do my first observation for my field experience report. The second grade instructor greeted me as I entered her classroom, with a big bright smile I found made her classroom warm and inviting.
