    I believe one good idea for Hispanic Heritage Month would be to expand and seek co- sponsorship from different organizations on campus to alleviate the costs that come along with events and receive different perspectives of how an events should be ran. Also, a greater number of organizations would mean a larger audience and more volunteers and participants to aid with development of an event. Since I’m applying for the Assistant Pageant Director, high quality photos should be taken at the event by asking other students if they have a professional camera, I own one of these type of cameras, and also setting up a photo booth area with a wide range of props. Also, having a hashtag for the event such as #HHMPageant or #MrHSA&MsHSA to increase…

    The topic my partner and I have based the National History Day Project on is the Mayan Calender system compared to the Hopi Indian Tribe system. The reason I liked this topic is because it is currently 2012 and so the the world ending is a huge controversy in society. I am very interested in the subject and wished to do deeper research on the predictions by not only the Ancient Civilization of the Mayans. I have recently discovered the Maya people are not the only people with these beliefs and so I have grown more fascinated. The idea of basing our project on this topic was actually the first thing to cross my mind when we were informed of the project, so we decided it fit with everything this year.…

    Holidays are days of festivity or recreation in which work is normally canceled and families or friends get together and celebrate for a certain purpose. Within separate cultures the holidays or celebrations may be different. For example within the Jewish culture those who follow that religion may celebrate Hanukkah. Within my research paper I will be covering the holidays that the Chicano or Latino culture celebrates. For example holidays such as Cinco De Mayo, Cesar Chavez Day, Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead), and Quinceaneras are celebrated heavily within the Chicano/ Latino communities.…
