Victor Memorial Scholarship Essay
I’m applying for the Victor Memorial Scholarship because I’m in need of financial support and would prefer to pay college with scholarships and financial aid, instead of being in debt from student loans. I need assistance from this scholarship because for the 2 years I plan on attending Barton Community College, I will need support for tuition, books, board, and fees. I currently have no money saved up for college and assistance from this scholarship will help and lead me on the path of following my future career plans. The scholarship provides for Jr. college, which I do plan on doing and the scholarship will help serve me well.
Further education will help me in the future because the more education I have in film and media gives me the experience

    The components of citizenship, community service, academics, work and home life, and extracurricular actives help me shine as a well-rounded individual. As an involved and caring citizen in the Union Township community, I do my best to make my mark. Displaying a good role as a citizen through community service has been a value I possessed ever since I could remember. At a young age, I started to serve my community with my parents at both school and church events and it has stuck with me since. Through community service such as being an assistant teacher in St. Veronica’s Religious Education Program, Glen Este High School’s member of National Honors Society, and Key Club, I not only helped out Union Township but I have also made new relationships and feel good about myself. Community service always makes me feel better because I know I’m helping others and making my mark through the friends I have made through both of these service programs.…

    The main mission of Berkeley City College is “to promote student success, to provide their diverse community with educational opportunities and to transform lives” – this is what exactly required Edmundson during the process of teaching his students (Edmundson, 1997). As he puts it in his work that he did not wanted to hear that student enjoyed his class and discipline, but he needed to know that his classes challenged the students and changed their lives. He also points out that students needed some jokes or interesting facts at the beginning of the lecture or an interesting question in order to provide investigation but he wanted that students rather make a difficult way through studying and required his students pay a lot of attention and…

    The college that I decided to research is called Florida International University or FIU for short. I feel like this college is appropriate for me because many of the amenities available fit my liking. The school has a very large campus and plenty of students to make new friends with, and is located in the heart of Florida. Florida’s weather is similar to Arizona’s, with the exception of humidity, making it feel just like home. There are many extracurricular activities at this college such as sororities and fraternities, a radio station, student council, and much more to keep me busy outside of my studies. This college also has a minimum GPA of 3.4 or greater, allowing me to be surrounded by students who value their education just as much as I do. I think FIU would be a great college for me to consider applying to because it has much of what I look for including size, location, academic and extracurricular programs.…

    I am not sure I could express into words how much I have grown and learned throughout this journey of my graduate degree with Capella. I had been wanting to go into this field for over 10 years, but didn’t have the opportunity to until a couple years ago. As soon as the opportunity came up, I dived right into it. Not knowing too much of the whole process of hours and requirements, all I knew was that I loved helping people and had a passion for it. I have been so fortunate to have the support of my family and more importantly my two beautiful girls. It has been a major sacrifice for them being a single parent going back to school. There has been many times that I rather no count that we couldn’t go do certain things because I had a paper to write. At first it didn’t matter to me to attend graduation, but seeing all the hard work that I have put into doing the best I could and the sacrifices they have made I want them to also join in the celebration because I am proud of them too.…

    First and foremost, I am a perfectionist and aim for the best in everything I do. Yet imperfections or mishaps don’t stress me out in the slightest, instead they motivate me to find what works and quickly rebound. My experiences in Trenton and Lawrenceville give me a dual perspective that is directly applicable to the service Bonner does. Yet, while I do have hopes to travel outside this country and do some kind of service, all of my traveling has been done around the east coast. In having a small but religious family I’ve become very flexible in collaborating with multiple personalities on behalf of many charity and fundraising projects with my church.…

    American Scholar Essay

    The various ideas presented in the American Scholar by Ralph Waldo Emerson both influences my previous beliefs but also challenged a few in the process. As Emerson kept elaborating on what a scholar must do, learn, and be, I took into account, over all other ideas, the mind of the scholar must not defer to the thoughts of the generally accepted. This idea spoke to me more than the other claims such as inaction of belief or constant learning of new subjects because it targets my weakness as a person. I feel, in my own opinion, that I possess ideas and suggestions that could be of use if spoken out, but as I listen and ponder on another’s ideas, my will to suggest my own thinking in essence “shuts down”. Emerson greatly influenced me on that personal level, but as I read his speech, an indirect message was presented to me. For the reason of which I do not know, the idea of this speech was not written for just anyone kept on reoccurring in my mind. Emerson clearly states different poverty levels of society and that it does not change the fact of everyone is a scholar, but I cannot rid the idea that by little chance that his ideas were not intended for just all people. I went to research when/where the speech was given and found that it was given at Harvard in Massachusetts and at that time period, slaves were still enslaved with the civil slaves in the north. The Emancipation Proclamation would not come for another 20 years or so, which account for my belief of the speech referring to all races clashing with Emerson’s idea of anyone can be a scholar. The idea of a true scholar, trusting his gut, further understanding, inaction of beliefs, and team work with others, is not what I disagree with. In fact, I agree with Emerson that this is what a true scholar/thinker is, negating the fact that previous Senate & chancellors are correct for not enacting of behalf of their empires. I just disagree with his preconceived idea that this…
