Fraternity hazing

When I came to SLU, I had trouble finding where I fit in. I tried club volleyball and Greek life, but I never felt that those places were where I belonged.

Honor societies are a privilege and serve as distinguished symbols of merit and leadership. Each forms a group of hardworking individuals that share similar passions and encourage each other to be their best self. I want to join Mu Alpha Theta to cultivate my understanding and interest in mathematics. It is present everywhere in our world today and serves as the basis for many scientific fields. The history of it, from the ancient Egyptian pyramids to amazing Greek formulas, fascinates me, so I would

It is used in most forms of communications and it is ultimately the way people things get done. Rhetoric is the form in which people influence or persuade one another and it can be found everywhere from television ads to Facebook posts. I have chosen to analyze my personal writing to examine how my rhetorical choices change when I am writing across different platforms such as e-mail, class

The purpose of this proposal is to research why members, who find themselves in a group that has elements of an intimate and task group, continue their membership after the group enters into the storming phase of group development. That is to say, why members stay involved after expressing frustration and disagreement over decisions that are made. This research proposal is designed to identify the key factors of why members, who represent their group culture, find it easy to complain about the balance
