The student found the most challenging aspect of attending college was being a low-income immigrant student without their father's support. To overcome this, they searched for scholarships and jobs to help pay for school and support their family. They took over their mother's cleaning business to help reduce her workload and now clean houses, babysit, and tutor to earn money for expenses while pursuing their degree in a medical career. Finding scholarships like the one from the foundation helps the student feel less alone in working to achieve their educational goals.

Love is difficult to define and means different things to different people. It is described as unquantifiable, obsessive, slippery, elusive, and a steep mountain to climb. The author explores love from a biological perspective of existing to drive reproduction, but also believes there is something more underlying this. Love allows for complete vulnerability but also has the power to inflict great pain. While love feels magical when experienced, it can easily slip away like trying to catch a slippery fish or peeking at a beating heart in your hands. In the end, love may just be something we need to believe in to have or achieve.1

The American Dream formed in the late 19th century as the idea that through hard work and determination, immigrants and their descendants could attain prosperity and live happily. This vision drove economic and social expectations throughout the 20th century. However, beginning in the 1970s, events like the Vietnam War, unemployment, and rising inequality undermined belief in unlimited opportunity and caused many to question whether the American Dream was still attainable. Today, with political and economic uncertainties, the idea that one can easily achieve fortune through hard work no longer resonates as a unifying vision for many Americans.Futurew of the american dream

The document discusses the changing nature of achieving the American Dream. It argues that while the American Dream was traditionally seen as accessible if you worked hard, various inequalities mean it is now out of reach for many groups. Racial minorities, women, LGBT individuals, and the working class now face greater obstacles to achieving the Dream of a good job, home, and family due to ongoing discrimination and the widening economic gap between rich and poor. If these inequalities are not addressed, the author warns the concept of the American Dream may disappear for most citizens.Challenging the ad

Their speeches and essays show how different groups faced obstacles to being treated as equals under the law.Defining the american dream

The document discusses different perspectives on the definition of the American Dream. The author believes the American Dream consists of three main components: the ability to pursue one's dreams, the right to be accepted as an individual, and freedom from oppression. These characteristics are exemplified through quotes discussing Americans pursuing their passions, a culturally diverse society accepting differences, and declarations of equality and liberty. In conclusion, while definitions vary, the American Dream in the author's view is defined by a set of rights that allow individuals to chase their goals and live freely without unjust restrictions.1 untitled document

To successfully catch river crabs, one needs to properly prepare with the right equipment such as a 15-foot fiberglass boat with a motor, anchors, oars, cushions, crab lines, weights, bait, and a sturdy crate. When the tide is low, crab lines attached to weights with chicken neck bait should be lowered slowly into the water. Any crabs nibbling should be scooped up quickly and placed in the crate before they can retaliate. Once home, the crabs should be boiled until orange and enjoyed around a newspaper-covered kitchen table.Essay outline

This document outlines an argument that cell phone use in moving vehicles should not be restricted unless risks are proven to outweigh benefits. It claims that scientific studies on links between cell phone use and accidents have been inconclusive. It also argues that the small risks of cell phone use while driving should be weighed against safety, business, and personal benefits. Instead of restrictions, the document proposes educating the public about dangers and enforcing laws against negligent and reckless driving when using cell phones.Recently uploaded (20)

This presentation explores the role of generative AI (GenAI) in enhancing the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), using Feltens five principles of good practice as a guiding framework. As educators within higher education institutions increasingly integrate GenAI into teaching and research, it is vital to consider how these tools can support scholarly inquiry into student learning, while remaining contextually grounded, methodologically rigorous, collaborative, and appropriately public.
Through practical examples and case-based scenarios, the session demonstrates how generative GenAI can assist in analysing critical reflection of current practice, enhancing teaching approaches and learning materials, supporting SoTL research design, fostering student partnerships, and amplifying the reach of scholarly outputs. Attendees will gain insights into ethical considerations, opportunities, and limitations of GenAI in SoTL, as well as ideas for integrating GenAI tools into their own scholarly teaching practices. The session invites critical reflection and dialogue about the responsible use of GenAI to enhance teaching, learning, and scholarly impact.

- 1. QUESTION: What is the most challenging aspect of attending College for you? What have you done to overcome that challenge? After I graduated from high school, I became certain that if I wanted to pursue a higher education I needed to be persistent and determined to achieve my career aspirations. However, I would not be at this level in my education without my mom's support. Without having my father's emotional and economical assistance, she has learned how to provide me with a decent quality of life. She works as a hairstylist in my hometown, but she knows the money she earns is not enough to pay for my medical career. As a result, I search for scholarships and job opportunities that could contribute to the achievement of my college education and help pay for basic needs in our home. I also believe that being an immigrant made my decision to attend college more challenging. I immigrated to the U.S. from Mexico when I was sixteen years old. Luckily I spoke English, but my mom and I did not really understand how the school system worked. Therefore, when senior year of high school arrived I did not really understand the process of attending college. I did not know that I had to talk to a school advisor about attaining a college education or find scholarships to pay for school. I had no knowledge of the types of tests that I had to take like the SATs, ACTs, or even college assessment exams. However, after researching this information online and meeting with college advisors, my mom and I have learned all of these strategies that help students accomplish a higher education. One of the first things that I have done in order to overcome the challenge of being a low-income student has been looking for a job. As I mentioned before my mom works as a hairstylist, but in order for her to maintain our house and pay the bills, she also cleaned houses for elderly people in our community. Since she worked so much in both jobs, I thought that my mom was overwhelming herself, so I decided to help her run the cleaning business in June 2008. In order to help my mom focus on her hair-styling business, I later took over the cleaning business in November 2008, and still manage it today. Currently, I clean houses for various families and usually work between three to ten hours per week, which is a flexible schedule that allows me to be a full-time college student. In addition, I help cover my familys basic expenses by babysitting and tutoring other college students in math or chemistry. While I am constantly trying to find more work and searching for scholarships that will help me pay for my education, I remain grateful to find opportunities like the one your foundation is providing to students. It makes me feel that I am not alone on the journey of accomplishing my educational goals.
