In the club, we do many acts of service in their communities, such as cleaning up parks, collecting clothing and organizing food drives. We also learn leadership skills by running meetings, planning projects and more so. It provides its members with opportunities to provide service, build character and develop leadership. One thing that impacted me from doing community work was the Eliminate Project which is a campaign to raise $110 million to eliminate

    After being a part of Key Club throughout my high school years, I learned how to give back to the community that has raised me and the conspicuous impact I can have in someone’s life simply through volunteering. Through Key Club, I help create service projects with local organizations and give members of our club an opportunity to volunteer and give back. One experience I will never forget is helping set up a blood drive in school with one of our local organizations, Bloodworks Northwest, a local blood bank that helps saves lives through research, innovation and education in blood. Our Key Club had to inform the school of the event that was happening, and encourage students to donate blood. It required hours of creating posters, informing the…

    Psychology as a whole has seen many major changes since it began. Take Sigmund Freud, the "Father of Modern Psychology", for instance. He was once the leading psychologist in the world, but now the majority of his ideas have been debunked or cast aside. Not too long ago, a large majority of psychologists were firmly rooted in the idea that a human being was a conglomeration of behaviors that could be changed through conditioning. To those psychologists, people were the sum of their behaviors. Today, behaviors are still important part of psychology, but much more emphasis is placed on thoughts and emotions.…
