    Between 1860 and 1900 the United States treated Chinese workers very poorly and did not pay them much for their services they provided in the jobs that were open to them. This period of time is also when the Gilded Age was occurring in America, so all Chinese workers in the U.S. were most likely working in a gold mine or on railroads, making it easy to classify that they were all be treated the same nationwide. By November, 1865, there were already approximately 4,000 mostly Chinese men working on railroads, and from there the numbers would just continue to increase.

    I been living in the Redwood National and State Parks for my whole life, and I’m going to stay here for the rest of it too, but it’s not been boring at all. I’m the highest redwood tree in the forest, standing 379.7 feet tall. I have big, thick branches with abundant leaves at the end, and I am one of the most visited trees in the forest because of my impressive height. I remember that when I was growing up, I could see more people come and visit the park than what I see this day. This may not be a problem now, but it may lead to a big problem because if fewer people keep coming, fewer people will take care of nature, which that may lead into many bigger problems.…

Agencies around the world conduct ecological assessments to find out how an ecosystem functions and how it is structures in order to know how to manage the ecosystem and the things that are inhabiting it. By doing an ecological assessment at Kent State I hope to learn more about how the ecosystems here work, since Kent State is my new home. With these results that I get from doing this assessment I hope to be able to see how areas on campus differ and how they are structured differently along with how they need to be taken care of, compared to the areas surrounding the campus. The ecological assessment that I conducted…
