Most of what was defined in the job description for president of Cape Cod Community College was the same as what was expected at MassBay Community College, which just recently held their own presidential search. It goes to show you that some of the core values we rely on in a president are universal in any educational institution. “A visionary educator” can mean one thing to the candidate and another to the HRM. I believe more goals and qualifications should have been outlined in the presidential profile because anyone could believe they possess the qualities needed to attain this position. The Human Resources Manager had a lot to think about upon these interviews and the entire hiring process.

He ultimately succeeded in his push to transform the system when he passed Medicare and Medicaid, and increased federal funds for research. One last major contribution of President Johnson’s to this era of liberalism was his education reforms. These acts increased college enrollments, provided students the option of a federal college student loan and expanded research at universities. They also served to enhance integration, since funds were not provided for segregated schools. To conclude, President Johnson set the stage for a period of immense federal reform and a shared sense of equality for the American people – a pinnacle of liberalism.
Conflict Theory and the Government Shutdown Eugene Peter Lewis, Jr. SOCI 200- D01 LUO Mrs. Susan Deneen November 24, 2013 One of the biggest news stories of 2013 as we near its close is the shutdown of the United States government. The legislative branch of the government has a task enumerated by the Constitution- agree on spending so that the government may be funded. When this does not happen, most of the rudimentary processes of the government fail to function.

I am a student at Paint Branch High School in Montgomery County, Maryland. I do not support the loss of benefits in health insurance for domestic partners. I think that the state is basically forcing people to get married in order to retain benefits.
The road to college readiness began approximately three decades ago with a report commissioned by President Ronald Reagan on the state of secondary schools and students in America. Although the report was intended to create avenues for academic success for students in the U.S., little did the authors know that hey set the course to high-stakes standardized testing and stringent accountability measures without considerations for fueling other requisite skills and strategies necessary for college success—creativity, critical thinking, self-efficacy, and self-regulation (Amrein-Beardsley, 2009; Bell, 1993; Berliner, 1993; Bracey, 1998, 2003; Crosby, 1993; National Commission on Excellence in Education, 1983; Ravitch, 2009, 2010; U.S. Department of Education, 2008a; Zhao, 2009a, 2009b). Although success in rigorous academic courses and high scores on standardized tests are good indicators of academic preparedness, high school and college personnel must work together to help students develop an understanding of the academic and non-academic expectations of entering and succeeding at postsecondary institutions, thereby internalizing a college-going attitude. Tinto (1993) indicated that an important component of persistence is the willingness of students to work toward the attainment of their goals. Similarly, Astin (1975) reported that first year college students who strived for a doctorate or professional degree were most likely to persist in
