Compared to the all the other places where we stayed on the trip, the hotel where we stayed just outside of St. Andrews could at best be described as so-so. It was sort of like an older motel in the USA, but it was clean and reasonably comfortable and the dinner that night and breakfast the next morning were good. Well, I should preface the latter comment and say I tried the Scottish traditional

Growing up I would watch my mom to see how she would react to things, and try to learn from her. One time she was watching an Aggie football game, got a little upset and reacted with some very inappropriate words, a couple of seconds later she hears a smaller voice repeat the words she just said. That was the first and last time I used “F-bomb” in front of her. This is someone I looked up to and followed, but doing the same thing as her got me into trouble. Sometimes as followers we get so caught

Growing up in a household, built on tradition and family, going to Texas A&M was bound to happen no matter what. Even though my brother went to this school and tried to persuade me to attend this university, it was going to happen no matter what he said. Tradition and family was a big thing as kid just because we are from a different country such that of Bosnia­Herzegovina, my mom always emphasized that we need to follow the rules and respect them, does not matter what they were in relation to.

The idea of Concealed Carry arms at universities is a controversial topic for both students and faculty on whether guns should be allowed or banned on campuses throughout the United States. The idea of Concealed Carry Arms is a controversial topic because it represents both protection and fear as no one knows who has a weapon, whether they have it legally or even if they know how to use it properly and safely. Also, nobody knows of someone else’s intentions with Concealed Carry Arms as they could

Due to the nature and complexity of contracts, agents are expected to have a background in contract law and be knowledgeable in finance, business management, financial and risk analysis, and of course, sports. In order to be a successful sports agent one must not only be a great negotiator, but also be highly motivated, have exceptional communication skills, be prepared to work long hours and handle multiple tasks at the same time.

Why College Athletes Should Not Be Paid Many believe that college athletes should not be paid. The main debate against compensating college athletes is that they are at the university for educational purposes and playing sports is a benefit. The NCAA states, “Student-athletes are students first and athletes second. They are not university employees who are paid for their labor” (McCauley 10). Universities get all the financial benefits of the money earned from sports played from things such as team

THE DILEMMA OF PAYING COLLEGE ATHLETES Introduction College sports support a multi-billion dollar industry in the United States, yet the principals whose performance on the field or in packed stadiums across the country are strictly amateurs who are forbidden to accept monetary compensation for their contributions, at least technically. Perhaps no better example exists of the tremendous importance of major college sports programs than the current controversy that recently came to light involving
