    I've always been baffled when Christian owned companies such as Hobby Lobby, Chick-Fil-A, and 7-11-(Oklahoma locations) allow their opinions to interfere with business. For instance, you may recall Hobby Lobby and their opposition to providing health insurance that covered plan b, Ella, or UID's. It put Hobby Lobby under extreme scrutiny that their case had to appear before the supreme court. But, the strong beliefs of these companies have also worked in their favor as they are known as reputable employers who offer great pay, benefits, and exceptional customer service. It's a classic case of a double edged sword and it may not be ideal but it…

As simple as Melvin’s definition of a contract may seem, certain situations and assumptions made can cloud the situation. In this case scenario, the team will address some of…

    Society’s perception on domestic violence can be traced back to the activists such as Ellen Pence, the author of a domestic violence-related book titled Duluth Model. The work engages readers with questions about domestic violence which would later culminate as the Duluth Model Theory. Some questions asked by those at the initial gathering on the topic were: “Why is she the target of his violence?” “Why does he think he is entitled to have power?” “How does the community support his violence?” (Ellen Pence; Michael Paymar 1993) These questions were never intended to address the possibility of men being the victims of domestic violence; They only assumed the victims of domestic violence to be women.

I would like to enroll in Northwestern’s McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. As a six year old, I was determined to build a “machine that can make anything.” To humor me, my dad and I started building what today I would call a Rube Goldberg Device. I was disappointed, it definitely fell short of its namesake. Who would have ever guessed that twelve years later I would be applying to a university that was printing 3D graphene structures for tissue engineering?. I would like to be involved in a cross disciplinary team to build human organs. Every day in the…
