Seminar unit 6 was about the America’s Dual Court System. Which you went over that the United States has courts on both the federal and state levels. This dual system reflects the state’s need to retain judicial autonomy separate from the federal government. Which most criminal cases originate within state Courts. You stated that we are due the difference from the federal and state courts in this unit. You stated that we will have a DB, quiz, assignment, and the assignment is who killed Peggy Hettrick.

I would like to invite you to be a panelist on Thursday, June 16th for Corps Member Induction. The panel will take place at the Grandview Library (500 W. Main St.) from 1:30 - 2:15. This panel is a crucial part of the induction of our corps members. Before the panel starts, our teachers will have spent the week exploring the Pacific Northwest, telling their own story and hearing stories. The week starts off with teachers sharing their own story of self, and then hearing the story of the Teach For America region and its values and priorities. The structure the stories is based on the research done by Marshall Ganz. We see this panel as a place for teachers to hear stories of Eastern Washington (aka South Central Washington) from your…
A: Hello my name is Ali and today my group is going to talk to you about Cadet challenge. First of all to start off with I will tell you about the activities you will be doing if you decide to get involved in Cadet Challenge.…
At a service academy, the people that attend are there to get an education and train to be an officer in the military. They are there to gain valuable life and military skills. In my opinion, that is more appealing than any college. I want to surround myself with people that have the same goals and aspirations as me, and I believe that the Academy can provide that. During the week that I was at the Air Force summer seminar, I learned about life at the Academy. I knew going into that week, that I would either love it or hate it. Throughout the week I spent time doing physical training, going to classes, and learning about life at the Academy. After that week, I knew I wanted to attend the Air Force Academy. I knew I belonged. I want to attend…
Resilience, dedication and leadership are qualities befitting for a successful USMA cadet and a successful Army officer. Resilience is not only an essential quality for becoming a successful cadet or officer, it is also essential for your life. Resilience is the ability to resurrect one’s self from hard times, to never give up, and displays ones mental strength. In the academy I’ve heard that on a cadet’s first year they undergo times of overwhelming stress in tests of emotional stability, perseverance, and ability to organize and perform under stress. With resilience and resolve a cadet will be able to overcome these stressful obstacles. Likewise, discipline is another quality in becoming a successful USMA cadet and a successful Army officer. At times resilience may complement dedication because when one dedicates their self to something, one needs the resolve to continue on with it and never give up. Dedication shows ones loyalty, commitment, and devotion, in which is an important trait when offering one’s service to their country. To finish, a successful USMA cadet and Army officer should have the quality of leadership. As a leader one must offer guidance and work together as a team to get things done efficiently. Leadership brings out control and order in a group. Showing resilience and dedication as a leader conveys a sense of trustworthiness and cooperation among their followers. Any person with a position of leadership needs to set a positive example in order to make their self charismatic and a successful leader. Having these qualities will show the mental strength, devotion, and management skills it takes in becoming a successful USMA cadet and Army…
Have you ever tried to rush something and now you wish you could go back and do it again? I never thought I would say this but I wish I could go back to my Naval Junior Reserves Officer Training Corps (NJROTC) High school days. I underestimated those days, and now I wish it could return. I miss riding the “Big Cheese” (bus) three to four hours, the long hours of practice, the “monkey suit”(uniform), the grass parties (lots of exercise that hurt), the long lectures filled with yelling Help us sir” every time we did something wrong, motivating others, telling people not to quit because if they do they fail the team, the eight- nine minute routines, the attitudes , the ten minute inspection, feeling sick until the whole competition is over, the seventy curl ups and 30 push ups, the last “Oorah” before the final routine, having my best friend beside me through everything……
At the Air Force Summer Seminar, I am expecting a few things. First of all, I want to have a solid idea of what is expected of an Air Force Academy freshman, along with the kind of discipline that is demanded in the service academy. I understand that on paper, the academy mentions what is demanded, I believe something that is written down can only go so far. I want the real, tough experience, and I want to see if I can be changed by it. Along with learning what work and effort is needed, I want to see if I would be interested in trying to attend a military academy school instead of a different private or public one. Maybe I will become more interested in the military as I am now, and I want to figure that…
Almost anyone knows who plays a sport how physically and mentally demanding it is. However, as my coach walks up to the field, I realize even more how much we have to step it up this season compared to last. First of all, we all have a mandatory duty to arrive a half and hour early to practice to run an extra warm up mile, run sprints to end each practice, and with so many newcomers we cannot afford to fool around. Our coach has made it crystal clear to us that she wants us to be strong competitor amongst our league. As well, as returners to the team we have an additional responsibility to mentor the first years and teach them how to train hard even outside of our practices.…
For the past several years, I have made a concerted effort to improve my personal performance, my effectiveness and develop greater resilience. In 2013, the VA Corporate Executive Development Board competitively selected me, to attend the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College (CGSC) through VA’s VALU program. I applied for this program because I wanted to expand my knowledge and improve my performance. I believed participating in this program would assist me in developing specific competencies such as external awareness, resilience, strategic thinking, problem solving, and political savvy, thus, improving my personal performance in both current and future positions.…
Throughout this essay I’ll use myself as an example of how JROTC has built an immense amount of leadership and admirable qualities in me. Being in the Drill Team for starters, has brought me places that I’d never thought I’d be- mentally and physically. With the atmosphere created in our drill team, I can feel that with hard work we can accomplish anything. It’s not only marching, it creates a new way of thinking and you develop new organizational skills. Drill Team allows you to work as one in a team with other members and see the results of what coming together can do. Trust is instilled, for you know that without one or two members, your team cannot work as well.…
My greatest observed strength as an instructor, is the relatability that I present to students. Less than a decade ago, I was in their position and I understand the daily rigors of Midshipmen life. Each Midshipmen should be striving for role satisfaction and commitment to the organization, as these can arguably be the foundational aspects of a student that flourishes. Gratitude and ridding cynicism have also been key areas of focus for me as an instructor, as well as explaining “why” we do the things that we do. As an Officer in Charge and a Company Commander in Afghanistan, completing missions, building confidence, and expressing gratitude towards each other were parcel to success and bringing sailors home safely to their…
On the roof where we practiced and on the Drill floor where we competed, I learned the value of teamwork and brotherhood, and was able to be myself and mature into the man I am today. Our motto was “All for one and one for all”, taken from the Three Musketeers, and are words I still live by and try to live up to, not only at Xavier but in my everyday life. Through years of hard work and dedication, I became one of the Commanders of the team, and to this day, lead them in Regulation, Inspection, Exhibition and Color Guard, much like Kevin did 4 years ago. At times, it did seem superficial, all I did was march around a gym floor with a rifle or an American flag, but it gave me a purpose, something I did not always have in years prior. I was able to feel like I actually belonged in Xavier, and without Drill, I may not have made it through Xavier with the motivation and confidence that I did, to become the man who could stand here today giving you this speech. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities and lessons it taught…
