Research Paper On Aaron Akamu

If you could interview one American about our nation’s past, who would it be, and why?

My roles in Healthy Campus gave me the confidence to go even further a take on leadership positions on campus. Not only was I was elected to an undergraduate student senate positon, but I was also voted in as the top senator for the College of Architecture Arts, and Humanities. I also succeeded in the classroom and achieved a spot on the Dean’s List for the first time in my academic career. Due to my leadership abilities and academic achievements, I was selected for two coveted public speaking roles. The first was at the Clemson Law Enforcement Summit, a gathering of local law enforcement officials to discuss better enforcement strategies for underage drinking and community policing. The second was at the Clemson University Student Affairs banquet, which recognizes outstanding student and administrative

We had a different speaker every night, each talking about different values and how they expect to see us in leadership positions in about 20 years. Jay Nixon is probably my most memorable speaker because he had a lot of stories that talked about the lessons he learned in his life and his political career.

A young man with a cocky attitude but natural born leader who with enough time could be one.

possessed a clear vision for America, had valuable political skills, and could lead people in

Off the top of your head who would you choose as MVP? Why do we spend so much time in a classroom? You can thank Horace Mann for that. He is the vital person that came up with public education. He should be a very notable person for everyone to know.

I chose Benjamin Franklin because he did a-lot during the revolutionary war. He was the sixth president of Pennsylvania and he was also the first United States Ambassador to France. Franklin was an inventor he is known for the lightning rod, bifocals and the Franklin stove. Ben was very successful in life, but he became wealthy publishing Poor Richards Almanac and The Pennsylvania Gazette. I think Ben Franklin would be amazing guy to talk to, I could ask him what it was like back then, and what inspired him to do all the things he did. We could talk about how the continental congress was made and who was mostly in charge. I would ask him what the war was like and how did people suffer with the loses they took. I also want to get

If I had the chance to talk to someone for thirty minutes, I would choose Wyatt Earp. Earp was a known as the biggest and best law enforcement officer during the late 1800’s early 1900’s. Everywhere that Wyatt went, people knew about him. Wyatt Earp helped protect many people during his life, and did not show fear to anyone. I admire Earp because of his bravery to protect the people he loved and fulfilled his duty to his fullest potential. Even though Wyatt’s family told him not to serve in law, he felt it was his duty and kept the people in Western America safe.

A president must be able to lead the country. The president who comes to mind is Abraham Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln was a great man. He was honest, humble, and most of all: a great leader. He led in his early political days as well as leading the United States through the toughest time in our nation's history.

Being a leader is a very important aspect that contributes to captures what is truly means to make difference and to be remembered. Not only does Dr. Frank Brown fit the bill for all the required criteria, the most noteworthy characteristic is his leadership. Frank truly sets the standard for what it means to take a stand, especially for the good of a school. Sure, a contestant, such as Mary Blackmon, who started the women’s athletic program here at CSU, deserves recognition for her leadership with bringing many students with talent here and campaigning for scholarships but, in all fairness she has the tennis courts named after her (Mary Blackmon Handout). She did most of her advocating for the sports program so, it’s only right she gets something sports related remembered for her. Frank truly set the stepping stones for this school. Brown proves his self to be the most qualified candidate to represent the school as the campus’s statue because of the magnificent financial contributions he made in developing the campus. Frank became the president while times were hard as there was shortage of budget funding. Frank Brown contributed millions of dollars in funding towards the building of many facilities at Columbus State. Frank raised over 100 million dollars in funding through a capital campaign, which was bizarre contribution to a school like Columbus College. While Thomas

UB is most known for its diversity; therefore, you need a candidate that best understand the demographic of students and can voice the concern of the student body to the right authorities. That candidate ladies and gentlemen, is me. Since my freshman year, I fell in love with UB but I mostly fell in love with what UB can one day be. I am constantly sitting down with Edina, the provost, and even sometime president solyen to discuss how we can better UB and how we can increase the retention rate and build the school spirit that we sometimes lack and help students make the best out of their college

If I could choose any influential leader throughout history to learn from, I would pick Eleanor Roosevelt. Her lifelong involvement in an array of leadership and advocacy positions and her passion for the issues she chose to support make her someone who I have looked up to for years. I think that if I was able to take a leadership course that was taught by Eleanor Roosevelt, I would learn how to be a selfless and encouraging leader, how to be a voice for others, and that being a leader is not necessarily all about power.

Kennedy, and Nelson Mandela. For one that wants to strengthen his charisma possibly studying videos of their speeches along with the way they interrelate with others is a great foundation for learning.

The former presidents whom I as a policeman guarded and of whom I learned and watched a variety of leadership styles.

Franklin. This man was my high school computer science teacher. He enjoyed his job to the fullest extent. The fact that he could teach us what he had spent so many years doing made him a happier person. In his leisure time away from teaching, he would spend a portion of it planning things to make the class more interesting and better for us. He would also take more time to spend with his family, or go out and have some personal time playing video games at a local arcade. He also did a lot of the things that he never got a chance to do as student, laboring through school.
