Dear Admissions Office of Clark Atlanta University: It is with great pleasure that I am writing this letter of recommendation for Carolyn Barkin. I have known Carolyn Barkin for over 25 years, during which time I have been able to watch her grow and mature into the woman she is today.

While balancing family and career

I am a student at the Illustrious Clark Atlanta University. In the fall, I will begin the second year of my matriculation at this institution. I am an Early Childhood Education major and Spanish minor. My educational aspirations begin by acquiring my bachelor degree. Furthermore, I will continue my education to obtain a master degree in business. I am also very assertive that I will accomplish my long-term educational goal of obtaining my doctoral degree in foreign policy. My vision is to begin my

I’d like to say I’m a very unique person. Not because of my hair, the way I dress, or how I look, but because of the unique things I bring with the person I am. All my life I’ve been the minority. From my preschool, to my church, my elementary and high school. Being black is something I embrace. I love my melanin skin tone, my nappy hair and I love teaching others about being a young black educated women. It hasn’t always been like that though. For majority of my life I use to try and fit in with

community and attended an integrated school, where he found his gift for math. In school, David Blackwell was eligible to skip a grade level twice, and he did so. At the tender age of 16 Blackwell became a teenage college student attending the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In the beginning, his major was to be an educator, but pursued the math path. After completing his 4 year term, he began his master's degree and graduated shortly. David Blackwell earned his bachelor's degree

A year later, Turner bought the Atlanta Braves for a mere $11 million, thus saving the near bankrupt baseball team from a certain demise. Since then, we recognize the Atlanta Braves as World Series champions and inevitable yearly contenders. In 1977, Ted Turner bought yet another Atlanta enterprise, the Atlanta Hawks basketball team. In the same year, he skippered the winning yacht the Courageous in the America’s Cup race

During the summer of 1984, Calvin Johnson trudges knee deep through a swamp in the wetlands of South Georgia. As snakes brush past his legs, he marches in line with nine other men, each dressed in an orange jumpsuit, swinging a razor sharp bush axe in collective rhythm. His crew entered the swamp at dawn and they will not leave until dusk. Guards, armed with shotguns, and equally violent tempers, ignore the fact that the temperature has risen well above 100 degrees and push the men even harder. Suddenly

Many people have the perception that all athletic departments are making a profit, when in reality the departments making a profit or breaking even are in the minority and not the majority (Burnsed, 2015). The University of Never Land is a Division II school in California that sponsors football and has an enrollment of 2,600 undergraduate students (Fried, G., DeSchriver, D, Mondello, M., 2013, p. 347). In order to compare how the Tinkerbells match up with other schools, you must look at schools

In 1948, a black American, George McLaurin, was accepted to the University of Oklahoma but treated with much disrespect. He sat in a desk roped off from the others in class, he ate lunch by himself, and he studied in a separate library. This is just one of the many things that occurred during the time of ‘separate but equal’. Due to the poor conditions in black schools under ‘separate but equal’, the main argument of the NAACP attorneys cases was to end segregation in schools, leading to the Brown

auspicious individual who strives to achieve everyday success. Looking through the vast history of CAU, I immediately became aware of many accomplishments and what the university could offer me. Building a foundation in the face of adversity is a concept I am able to identify with all too well. I also noticed before Atlanta University and Clark College became one, AU held the title in being the “nation’s oldest graduate institution serving a predominantly African-American student body.” I instantly smiled
