The Anna Todd Jennings Scholarship

Twenty four hour visitation in the dorms would be convenient for some individuals at times, and scholarships seem racist ideas held by the scholarship owner these should not be allowed.

Yes, twenty four hour visitation is something all the students wish to have at some colleges but it’s not for all colleges. Some college students always look forward into having fun, playing, and being interactive with the opposite sex. You would never have any privacy time someone would always be in the suite with your roommate or out in the always making loud and disturbing noises. As she said,”Most of college students like to relax in nightgowns, T-shirts, or underwear in their rooms or halls.” Relationships could also become a distraction to the person that is trying to do homework, or trying to study for that big test in the morning. That person who is in that relationship may have that boy or girl in their room to talk or do anything they was planning on doing. So there would be no privacy for yourself not even for work you just might want to take a quick nap, or just relax and watch some television. Stealing is another big key problem you might have by having twenty four hour visitation. The doors would always be unlocked from people walking in and out not remembering to shut the door. That makes it easier for someone that doesn’t belong in your room to take your stuff. As she also said,” These people might be anything from pranksters to criminals, but anyone leaving a room unlocked would be taking a chance of be robbed or seriously harmed.” I know most parents if they found out their child belongings are missing they would be ready to find out who took their child stuff and that could lead to something even bigger than what it was. In the same way most of racism in any form is evil that should be opposed. Anna

    Good and evil are polar opposites, yet one cannot exist without the other. To understand this intricate relationship, one must have a clear understanding on what exactly good and evil are. These two are not always so black and white, but good can be defined as acting agreeably with societical and personal values. Evil can be defined as going against those values. However, as societies and humans differ, so do their moral codes. What is seen as good in one society or time may be seen as evil in another. Two more factors to consider are intentions and actions. They are two separate entities. Actions are seen, and judged, by everyone else, but intentions are known only by the doer. This is why there is no clear-cut line between good and evil.…

    At first glance, many students are immediately drawn to the social environment of a university. Various universities including NCCU, UNCG, NC A&T and WSSU all provide socially adequate environents where students are given access to differentiating programs, parties, clubs, dances and events. Another common connotation referenced when accessing a university is the utilization of dorm rooms. This can serve as either a pro or a con, depending on a student's personal preference. There are students who may not mind sharing their space with another student, but there are also students who prefer a bit more privacy and seclusion. Having a…

    "It is not whether an activity is perceived to be enjoyable that distinguishes employment from leisure. Rather it is the presence or absence of instrumental constraint," ( p.4 ). This quote from the book best describes the problem of athletic scholarships as they exist today. Instrumental constraint is basically the control, or constraint of material rewards and resources, or in this case room and board or extra spending money for athletes receiving scholarships based on their athletic performance. The whole point of athletic scholarships are to free the already over taxed athlete from worrying about getting a full time job in order to pay for classes, spending money, and…

    Nothing reveals the true meaning of life until it is taken away. Death being the hardest, most tragic and life spiralling event, it can leave many people lost. For me it was exactly that, when I heard the tragic news of the death of my role model, my best friend, my only brother, it tore me apart. The death of my brother allowed me to put everything in perspective. Opening my eyes to the real world, to see beyond what is just happening right in front of me. With my freshman year of high school just starting with enough to deal with, this topped it all. I was lost. No time to say a simple “goodbye”.…

    Student-athletes deserve more benefits because at most 10% of each sports’ athletes will go pro and make a living off of it. Benefits don’t have to be just receiving money, they can be anything to help the person out. Whether it be less homework, extra time for homework, or anything really. Athletes will make the most of their benefits and use them as much as they possibly can. They shouldn’t be punished for playing a sport in college, they should in a way be “rewarded” especially if they are a winning team. These young adults are putting their bodies on the line every minute of their game to make a name for their team and their school, this is the least that schools could do to help them…

    Critics of student athlete privileges suggest that colleges should put education first and by giving athletes “preferential treatment,” it violates the sole purpose of the institution. The schools with attendance policies have a requirement for regular students to be in class a certain amount of time. However, athletes are exempted from those requirements. According to Amy Perko, an academic reform advocate at Knights Commission, her commission has “consistently recommended that athletes be mainstreamed into the same academic requirements other students are subject to, so that athletes be subject to the same admission policy and criteria as other students.” (Schrotenboer1). Some universities have students called “special admits.” These are students accepted into universities even though their grades…

    Scholar athletes deserve to be given special treatment because we have to go above and beyond more than the average student. There are times that as a student athlete that you will have to miss class due to road trips. When I was a freshman, I was assigned two papers in one day and they were both due the very next day, because I had to leave for a basketball road trip and we would have been gone the entire week and I would be missing the due date that was assigned for each one of the assignments. My teachers did not accept emailed assignments and only accepted hard copies. Now on that particular day I did not get out of class until twelve, had practice from…
