Each class’ yearbook is a snapshot of history kept for generations to come. Personally, I enjoy browsing through my parents’ annuals from years past. I would be honored to be a member of the Marion High School yearbook staff because I wish to use my talents to help my school create this book of lifetime memories. One reason I think yearbook is suitable for me, out of all the other activities, is because I have a true love for photography. I could honestly spend hours taking photos and would enjoy every single second of it!

In the beginning of the essay Pharient refrains to a statement that students hear every day, “You want get anywhere without your education (635).” This is a statement that many teachers and parents repeatedly preach to their child since they were kindergartener’s. Pharinet also explains in a reasonable tone, that having a college degree doesn’t always bring success in most students’ life. Mainly because, students are not properly preparing themselves to what seems to be the “real world”.
After the first song, I was amazed. The band was really quite impressive compared to the random bands I have seen off campus this semester. They proceeded to play a few more songs including, Fly High, Satisfaction, and Day Breaks. All of these songs will be songs I listen to on a regular basis now. Groovy, funky, and upbeat, all of these songs were very catchy and definitely made you want to nod your head and tap your feet.
Katie Gathman Professor Star College Comp 16 October 2013 Pro Co-Mingling Legislation Apart of the typical every day college experience would involve the opposite sex. Usually having mingled classes with both male and female is a good part of the college experience since it gives the opportunity to expand a persons social circle and gives the chance to intermingle with the opposite sex. Some students have come from all boy and all girl high schools, which they may not of experienced the opportunity to socialize and talk with the opposite sex. Saying all of this, I am against the Anti Co-Mingling Legislation because I believe that socialization with the opposite sex will help later in life, having the opposite sex in a classroom does
I arrived at the venue in Shepherd's Bush quite early and saw the audience getting gradually more excited as the show approached its start. The venue was quite small; it allows 2000 people and it was packed. The people were mostly high school and university students of varying race and nationalities. It was very obvious to tell it was a hip-hop show due to the hip-hop fashion such as snapback hats, bucket hats and sneakers.

After sitting in a van for 16 hours driving in the summer heat, my crew and I finally made it to Orlando, Florida. As we unload our luggage to enter our bright blue resort room in Disney World, I hear loud music and dancers practicing all over the place. I enter the room with my best friend and a surge of happiness and excitement suddenly rushes through our bodies. This is it, my crew and I have made it to the biggest competition event dance could hold, Worlds 2011. Day 1.
Kids of any age will try to convince their parents that they are sick so they don’t have to go to school for the day and hate school. “Little Rock Nine”, on the other hand, actually valued their education. They literally put their lives on the line to go to Central High School and learn. Sure some people sometimes travel three or more hours to get to school but to have to deal with a riot everyday and be criticized for how they look is just cruel. Kids these days have no idea how hard life was back then, even the African American student haven’t a clue to how harsh life was, not just in Central High School but their lives in general were always being tortured.
After WWII, the GI Bill brought an enormous influx of men into the college system. Some schools found themselves with up to forty Greek organizations with at least fifty members each. It was also mainly with this influx that a tradition of hazing proliferated. Hazing is a term used to describe various rituals and other activities involving harassment, abuse or humiliation used as a way of initiating a person into a group. Since the late 19th century, the Penn State fraternity and sorority community has been an integral part of life for thousands of students, alumni, faculty, staff and State College community members.
