My desire was to challenge myself and pursue my belief in life-long learning. And yes, the last eight weeks have definitely been a challenge intellectually in IDS 101. After the first two weeks of school, I seriously questioned why I would go back to school at fifty-one years of age for personal satisfaction. The days were long and I wasn’t sure I still had the self-discipline and determination that would be needed to finish. Over the last eight weeks, this class gave me numerous opportunities to hone my skills in critical thinking, research, and writing. This class has given me the necessary skills to continue toward completing my degree.

This is going to be a completely honest paper of who I am. Currently, I am sitting at my desk wondering why I am applying for the National Honor Society. There are many reasons for one to apply, it’s a resume builder, it motivates individuals to help people, and it is an honor to be accepted.

I feel like this page could have been more complex and more creative, but other than that it looks good.

When I signed up to be on the yearbook staff, I wanted to follow in my deceased mother’s footsteps. My whole life, I would hear stories about her staying at her school late to finish the yearbook, and I would read back on her editor’s letters from her three years of being the yearbook editor at Ouachita Baptist University. I wanted to be just like her, but what I have found and learned in yearbook is much more.

First I think I deserve this type of grade because it’s a good grade. Everyone knows that. Teachers tell me all the time that they are glad I pay attention. They also say its good to just do the work and

I think Vassar first came on my radar because of my Latin teacher. Along with being my eclectic Latin instructor, Mr. Gnolfo was also my softball coach for two years. After observing that he wore his Vassar baseball cap almost every practice and listening to many of his anecdotes about his old days on the baseball diamond on the way to the field, I just felt like I had to research the school a bit. Now, I come from a very small, independent school in Rhode Island. With only a total of thirty-four kids in my graduating class, I’ve certainly learned the benefits of a small school community. Obviously Vassar has much a much larger enrollment, but still I believe that the small community and class sizes that your college offers would be very beneficial

I always knew I was different or didn’t fit in as well as my other classmates. I mean, sure I talked, dressed and pretty much looked like everyone else, but my ethnic background made me think I couldn’t succeed in life because I was born in a foreign country. Whenever people would talk about immigration at school, I would became very uncomfortable and sit silently. It felt like all eyes were on me, but when I would look around no one was actually staring. They were concentrated on their work or staring off into space.

I received an acceptance from a US MD school during the 2013-2014 cycle. However, as an international student, I was required to deposit all four years’ worth of tuition in an escrow account prior to matriculation, which I was unable to do. While I was aware of the escrow requirement prior to application, I was on track to obtain permanent residency during the application year per my immigration attorney, which would excuse me from this requirement. However, given the uncertain nature of the residency process, this did not, and is yet to, happen. My family and I had recently immigrated from India, and coming up with the escrow amount was impossible at that time. Loans were also only available on a yearly cadence, not for all four years at once.

I was becoming very educated about my “miseducation,” blacks as a society’s miseducation. We were regarded as chattel, beaten, family and spirits broken, it was actually illegal to get an education. It was the law of the land for profit then dominance. Racism grew. The fallout from missing this huge part of our history still haunts us all as a society today, over 350 years later. Tune into any media genre to stay updated on the state of affairs for racial relations. #blacklifesmatter….

In my last year of high school, I joined the Yearbook team and it was the biggest team project that I have ever done. Working with thirty members to create this huge project became my most memorable achievement. Through writing and interviewing students for over eight months, the book meant to be as a collection of my team’s memory rather than a record of school events.
