Gryphon And Pleiades Society
Looking at the current members of the Gryphon & Pleiades society, I notice there are no biology majors. I would like to incorporate science into current or a new project to help the community. I would like to help implement a science club that works with the local schools teaching students about science and scientific careers. Many think science is a dry unrelatable topic, but can be engaging across cultures through its synthesis with subjects like mathematics and geography. I not only think this would improve leadership on the Clark campus, but in the local community as well.

    The Delian league was formed around 480 B.C.E when the Persian invasion of Greece was repelled. The Athenians and other Greeks were uncertain if the Persians would attack them again and so they decided to form the league (Brand, P. J. (n.d.)). I think this was a great idea because the Greeks and Athenians would be prepared in terms of acquiring war machinery, creating good offensive and defensive strategies and also establishing a great solid relationship among the people. This would help them fight back and not suffer greater losses like the previous wars they had fought in.…

    In book 6 and 7 of the Odyssey our hero, Odysseus is first introduced to the Phaeacian society. We can see from the beginning of book 6 to the end of book 7 that the Phaeacians want to do nothing but help our broken-down, distressed and homesick hero, who wants nothing more than to return to his home land of Ithica. They help him get back on his feet and on his way again. “I now appoint a day for your departure home: tomorrow. You shall lie deep in sleep while they row you over tranquil seas,” They show an immeasurable amount of hospitality toward Odysseus, putting a fine roof over his head, the finest clothes on his back and the most luxurious of foods and wines in his stomach. “White-armed Arete gave her maids instructions to put a bed in the portico and to furnish it with the finest purple rugs, spread coverlets over these and add warm blankets on top.” These people show great xenia to Odysseus allowing him to sit in Alcinous’ favourite son’s chair, showing the reader that Odysseus is more than welcome in their society.…

    Being a leader in 4-H, I have taken on many roles to make the 4-H experience a memorable and very enjoyable. One of my more recent projects was creating a six week Cloverbud Science Club. After school, the cloverbuds in the Perham School District would come to the Science Club and learn various science topics including space, water, and chemistry. I prepared the lesson, taught, and cleaned up. Besides teaching, I became a quick problem solver when it came to a conflict. I learned how long the youth could focus on a project and how to explain the results from their experiments. This science program was the first taste of 4-H many of these students had, but it made their 4-H experience a fun and memorable journey. By implementing these programs,…

    In my perfect world it would be democratic, and there would be no slaves or any type of social class. Unfortunately, excluding the time of creation, the world is not and has never been perfect. In Ancient Greece there were four different social classes. The privileged upper-class were those that ruled Athens. Native by birth they enjoyed social excess and great wealth. The upper class were practically the head of all enterprise and endeavour and were referred to as natives. The Middle class was next in the hierarchy. Not born to privilege in Athens they were referred to as the metrics and generally came from surrounding regions to settle and work in Athens. The metrics were free people having never been slaves. They enjoyed as…
