Spiral Jetty

As President of South State University (SSU) I have been tasked to address the downward spiral of enrollment along with the decline in staff productivity and morale. These three issues have also caused a deviation from the South State University’s mission. In order to address these issues and improve the organization, I have decided to utilize the transformational leadership approach. Northouse (2016) describes transformational leadership as the process that changes and transforms people by considering

Group Behavior Robert Watson Columbia College In an organizational context, group behavior is an important concept as it determines the cohesiveness and coherence of the organizational culture and organizational communication. For instance, unless the human resource department (HRD) function communicates the policies clearly and cogently, the employees would not participate and comply with them wholeheartedly. Hence, molding group behavior is important for organizations. However, this cannot

The purpose of Covey’s The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens is to better mold a teen’s mind frame. Most teen’s lives are crazy and have no order. These seven habits help teens get control over their lives. The first part is the private victory, followed by the public victory, and finally the renewal. If all of these habits are applied, they will help all teens to be more successful and get more out of life. Habit 1 is all about being proactive, and taking charge of yourself. You can’t keep blaming

it was useless. Finally, I unfocused my eyes and gathered the stray light beams from a torch shining somewhere in the distance. There was not much to see, just stone walls streaked with grime and water. After what seemed like ages of the downward spiral, in which I thought we might walk into the center of the Earth where Terran held court, the ground leveled out. We entered a long corridor, torches blazing at different intervals that made me wince at the sudden brightness and hay littering the floor

Life is a never-ending pile of rocks. A climber, like many others, sets his foot on another jagged looking stone. He alternates between his feet, using his hands to help hoist himself up. The climber carefully makes his way towards the top. He stares in hope at what he imagined to be the summit. Blinded by the bright light, the climber loses his rhythm. With several missteps, the climber tumbles downward. He is hurt with scars and bruises, as he’s being pummeled with the rocks he had once triumphed

estranged. My actions had driven people away from me, or perhaps I pushed them away. Gradually, I began losing friendships and relationships, and declining socially, mentally, emotionally, and financially. Every aspect of my life headed towards a downward spiral. Eventually, I became so alone, and my loneliness hurt. And when it hurt, I'd drink. It became a cycle, a never ending cycling of me being hurt and then drowning my misery in drinking. I never thought it would end or things would ever

Most people use second hand information as their core source of information about crime, this source of information usually being the media. When carrying out sample research in Birmingham, Susan Smith (1984) discovered that 52% of people obtained most of their information about crime from the media, 36% obtained it from hearsay or alleged experiences of friends and neighbours, 3% from their own experiences, and 1% from the police service themselves (cited in Jones, 2001;

Smithson’s Spiral Jetty is a 3ft. 6 in. x 15 ft. x 1,500 ft. Earthwork located in Great Salt Lake, Utah. It was created in April 1970. Located where the rails of the first transcontinental railroad met, it sits near the Golden Spike monument; making it an actual landscape. It’s a giant counterclockwise spiral sculpture made of black rock, earth, algae, and salt crystals. It is said that Smithson used dump trucks and bulldozers to haul in 6,650 tons of earth and rocks to complete the Spiral Jetty. In a

1) Allan Kaprow “Yard” 1961 Martha Jackson Gallery's backyard, New York The beginnings of the Environmental Art and “Happenings” Movement When Allan Kaprow installed ‘Yard’ in 1961, Abstract Expressionism still held sway. Kaprow filled the outdoor courtyard of the then Martha Jackson Gallery with tires, a gesture whose documentation has become iconic. Kaprow expanded sculpture’s possibilities, giving us a dramatically new approach to the problem of solids and voids. It was also an attempt for art
