Since collegiate athletics have begun, there have been all kinds of cheating scandals involving the big-time college sports. College sports today are filled with preventable, scandalous acts made by college coaches and administrators. An example of this would be the case of fake “paper classes” at the University of North Carolina at Chapel-Hill. I personally believe that the NCAA should not have imposed any sanctions or allegations amongst the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for academic

When I was young, I came to understand that a person’s creativity cannot be constrained to their situation. I learned that everything we do is based off the choices in our life. While someone can offend, discourage or harm you, they cannot force your response. As a decision maker, this taught me a lot about how I need to approach choices; that is, I cannot rely solely on instinct to choose a correct path. Mentors, friends, and family are needed to guide decisions, because they will weigh options

Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points speech influenced the world in the way that few speeches in history have. Wilson was the leader of the free world and felt that it was his job to provide a solution for peace. As Wilson gave his Fourteen Points, which presented a path to everlasting peace, he addressed not only his nation, but also the world. Following his speech, his policies were mimicked in in every major western power’s affairs for the remainder of the Twentieth Century. He declared his philosophies

Introduction: Child labour is defined as children who provide work and as a result of this, can possibly affect their mental and physical health. As well as this, if the work interferes with their education or removes the option to go to school; it is classed as child labour (International Labour Organization 2017).  The International labour office (2012) estimates that 168 million children in the world are experiencing a form of child labour and more than half of them are in work that has a direct

As a person who considers themselves creative and fun, being an actor seems quite interesting. My job title would be actor/performer. Actors express various ideas and portray many characters from very different backgrounds, and they try to interpret the writer’s script in a way that entertains or informs the audience (“Summary”). I chose acting as my career because as a kid I always thought acting was interesting and enjoyable. I tend to be a very verbose person at times so it is the perfect career

The Fourteen Points was a speech that was given by Woodrow Wilson to be used as peace negotiations after World War I. Woodrow Wilson was president at the time and the speech was broadcasted all over the world. There were fourteen points given in the speech, as the name implies. This was actually pretty unsuccessful because many of the countries wanted to punish Germany more so they only kept one point, the final one. This point established a league of nations. This essay really does appeal to all

Did you know that having an extracurricular hobby can help high school and college students in academics? Things such as being engaged in an orchestra, or a club on campus are common; my hobby has been athletics. I have excelled in athletics all my life and decided to take it to the college level. I can't describe how much that experience has had an impact on my ability to manage time, my health, and my success as a student. If you had something that you loved, something that made you successful

REED ALL ABOUT IT: Driven to be a Jay hawk By Tyrel Reed with Tully Corcoran “...I've dealt with pain before. I’m willing to do it again. I don't think it affects the way I play. I get my adrenaline flowing and I’m OK. I never was the quickest guy. I've just got to be smarter out there and find ways to be effective.”- Tyrel Reed [pg. 10] This particular quote stands out to me especially because how humble and just accepting of the fact that his ankle isn't in the best shape and hes not going to

Paying College Athletes Many people believe that college athletes should be paid for how much revenue they bring to their school. However, there are also people who think they should not get paid because they already have numerous advantages that other students do not have. Student-athletes at the Division 1 level that play men's basketball and football should not necessarily be paid a salary but should be able to make money off of their accomplishments, especially if we hold them on a high pedestal

Many people are honored for their leadership, impact, legacy, achievements and hospitality. At Columbus State University, there are multiple people that should be considered for an honor. Mary Blackmon started women’s athletics at CSU. Frank Brown , former president at CSU, transformed CSU from a commuter college into the massive university it is today. Thomas Whitley was the founding president at CSU. Carson McCullers was a well-known author in Columbus. All these people did something great for
