My understanding of gender has developed tremendously since arriving at Temple. The few prerequisite courses I have taken helped me progress in a minor way. The way I initially thought, the world was a much kinder place. In reality, we see hate and discrimination and choose not to believe it or join in on it. In the class I have learned the true extent of how deeply rooted these issues are and how inauspicious the journal has been for many groups throughout the decades. Gender to me is not the socially

Skills and SMART Goals to Develop Better Time Management While trying to identify the area in which I felt I needed the most improvement, I came across several areas that I thought needed improvement. I was able to group these several areas that need improvement into one topic, which is time management. Becoming better at managing my time will help me significantly during nursing school, in my personal life, and in the work place after graduation. I have identified three skills to focus on in order

Sports and Spectatorship One learns from an early age the societal and communal importance of sports. Yes I say importance, because sports shape life and if one isn’t athletic, he or she risks being a social outcast. Kids bond over sports in the neighborhood, forcibly required to do sports through gym and recess at school, forced again to play sports in hopes to stay fit. Society places such an emphasis on sports they require you to take it for 13 years, kindergarten through grade 12—gym. On the

Swish It was my final high school game at Chino Hills with my best friend Lonzo Ball. It was the State Championship against Mater Dei. College scouts were scattered over the whole stadium! I want to impress the UCLA scout because Lonzo had committed there and i want to play basketball with my best friend. If i could get scholarship to UCLA it would be amazing. “Chardee this your time to shine let’s get out there and do what we do best.” Lonzo told me. “You’re right, you better make me look good

According to sportswriter Paul Gallico noun, “It is a lady’s business to look beautiful and there are hardly any sports in which she seems able to do it”. An abundance of people today believe that women are not worthy of receiving the same treatment in sports as men for this reason. First of all, there has been a law signed which is against gender inequality in athletics, but a bountiful amount of schools, including high schools and colleges, are not in compliance with it, and have not lost federal

it will look like next year? Eager fans will have to watch one of the Tree’s wonderfully entertaining performances to find out! . One of the most memorable performances by the Stanford Tree is its best acting performance for the ESPN “This Is Sportscenter” Campaign. As a general rule, in order for a mascot, or anybody for that matter, to be in an ESPN commercial they would have to give a memorable presentation. In "Bat Making," the Stanford Tree delivers. Watchers can see the horror growing in its

Mike Mitchell of the Pittsburgh Steelers recently made comments about how the defenders do not even know how or when to tackle players anymore. Mike said that the fines and suspensions are very inconsistent, and that he has seen suspensions and fines handed out to players who do things after the play and they get let go easier than defenders doing something in the middle of a play. Mike Mitchell has also brought up how he thinks defenders basically have to ask the player if it is okay to hit them

The Big Game Brr! It’s freezing cold! I woke up, it was just about 6:20 when I woke up to my alarm buzzing. I went straight to brush my teeth first after realizing I had showered the night before. Afterwards I put on my pants and my school shirt I then scurried down stairs, and I ate the usually Kellogg 's Frosted Flakes. Oh know it was already 6:50, which meant one thing. I only have 20 minutes to watch ESPN. I dashed to living room and tried to turn on the television, but I couldn’t find it

Oregon Ducks Mascot The Oregon Duck was first seen in 1940. His looks may have changed and the person on the inside may have changed, but the same school spirit and the same joy has always been brought to peoples faces each time they see him. He always goes the extra mile to make performances special, and makes a positive impact on the community, sports industry, and student athletes. We think it is important that the Oregon Duck gets nominated into the hall of fame because if a mascot can do all

Smith, who played Dr. Bennet Omalu, they wouldn’t let him speak at conferences about his findings. The NFL threatened him to stop or they’d hurt him and his wife who was pregnant with their son. Early in the 2000’s they had a highlight reel on Sportscenter of people getting knocked out from huge hits. After the concussion news came out they got rid of it to get rid of evidence. The NFL also had players with brain damage hide it and tell the people nothing was wrong. Teams also took star players and
