However, the Second Mile stated that they never knew anything about the incident, although this may not be accurate. Curley and Schultz were charged with failing to tell the police, and falsely telling the grand jury that they were never informed them about the incident. McQueary was a graduate assistant at the time and he displayed more good ethics than the organizational leadership of the school. By Curley and Schultz covering up the incident the abuse could continue because no one ever knew of Sandusky’s extreme unethical behaviors. However, McQueary attempted to do what was right by informing his superiors; but that was not enough to stop the abuse.
The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn is not racist and should not be banned from any American Literature curriculum. The seemingly offensive use of the word, “nigger”, is essential to maintaining the authenticity of the atmosphere of the novel. Mark Twain, being a writer of the realism era, recognized the need to use regional dialect of the Deep South in the dialog. In a society that was currently dominated by
The point of the experiment is to show that we cannot successfully think of such a being without thinking of a being that exists. Guanilo’s counter-argument represents usage of the same logic and reasoning as St. Anselm’s inference to prove the existence of another being. Guanilo proves that in his case St. Anselm’s argumentation is incorrect and hence, St. Anselm’s ontological argument is incorrect as well. In his response, St. Anselm emphasizes inaccuracy of Guanilo’s interpretation by distinguishing two kinds of beings and, as a result, strengthens his argumentation. Ontological argument is the argument for the existence of God, based only on premises derived only from logic reasoning and analysis.

What lessons can be learned from Va Tech? (Discuss at least 2) The first and most important lesson would be that we couldn’t judge a person to their full extent. We will never know what they are capable of. Cho, according to “friends” and professors, was just an antisocial person that avoided mostly everyone. If I were in their position the thought of him coming to the campus and killing over 30 people would not have crossed my mind.
Victor Hassine &Ronald Cotton The question of whether Victor Hassine was arrogant (putting himself on a pedestal) was raised in our class discussion. I do not think he put himself on a pedestal. I feel that Victor’s reaction to being incarcerated was quite normal. As Alyssa said in class “It’s a natural response to be confused. He had never been in prison and that’s how people would react if they have never been to prison.” Additionally, as Karissa pointed out, how would he be putting himself on a pedestal if he brought awareness to all of his mistakes in the book?
Football is its own sport in many was one being its unique championship. “Football remains the only NCAA sport whose championship isn't decided through a playoff system”(Herald, p.1) that is very unique to the sport and some want to keep it because they like to be different. Some believe that the more different they are the better it is. One of the main groups that were against playoffs were the “lords” or owners, of different teams that they are “ defending the 'fairness' of deeply flawed for determining a division 1-A National Champion”(Herald, p.1). They don't care if others say that the way is flawed they still believe that it is fair in some
However, the article did not include any numbers or statistics from the survey, but it did contain a quote from a second-year college student. The information is convincing, but it is not quite credible. To make the article more credible, I would’ve gotten more in depth with the survey. Another point Shepard makes is that professors will not be as concerned about rushing through information because if a student missed something, they could just go back and listen to the podcast again. This helps proves his point that
He then states to the college population that they were not being taught or were not consuming the correct skills to have leadership. His main goal is to change the way people handle themselves such as their decision making and standing out from everyone else. To start, the audience
