Scholarship About Change
I have a lot of things I’d like to have differently, and i can do a cliche scholarship about change or i can share and elaborate on one of my dreams. I have a reoccurring dream where i go to the corner of a street (usually one that i drive on a lot) and enter a pet store. I walk into the pet store and sometimes it feels like i'm walking on a baggage claim belt. When i finally get into the pet store, it is closed and they throw me in one of those big trash cans because i just want to pet the fish. When i land in the trash can i start falling into a deep deep dark pit of mystery and curiosity. When I land, I land in a fishbowl as a fish. I guess I’m pretty calm about being turned into a fish. I start swimming around the bowl a find things from

    When I was younger I had a very vibrant dream in the back of my mind. My family has never been the rich family, and I have never gotten everything I wanted. I had this dream, that I would be the one to save my family from poverty. I’d get famous, have tons of money, and bring my family to live in my mansion. Most of my time was spent thinking about that single dream that I had for years.…

    It has always been my dream to go to Louisiana State University. I am so thankful to say that as of last week, I have been accepted to go there! My mother is a special education teacher at a Tangipahoa public school, and my father is air conditioner/ refrigeration mechanic. Even though they want me to have the best education possible, I will not let my parents go into serious debt over it. With TOPS being unpredictable, and little to no financial aid, I am very worried about the costs of attending LSU. With the help of the “Courage To Grow Scholarship,” you can help my family and I pay for the education I want and…

    In today’s society, a wealth of information is available at all times literally with just the touch of a button. To some, this ease of convenience is a blessing. For those who do not use proper discretion, the convenience is a curse. Due to the abundance of information located on the World Wide Web, students can pick and choose information at their leisure, without ever thinking about whether it is recognized as a scholarly document. With the swiftness that this information age has come upon us, some of our fundamental skills were somehow left behind. According to Russell (2009), a librarian who frequently meets with campus instructors to address any issues they may be having, professors worry that “students lack an understanding of what constitutes good-quality scholarly information” (p.92). In the field of education, particularly early education, teachers must not allow the information literacy to influence scholarship, practice or leadership in a negative manner, but instead embrace the potential information literacy possesses and take full advantage of teaching students a more responsible way to research, analyze, and apply their findings.…

    Over the years I have discovered many things, alone, about myself, that would benefit me in the long run. As a child, math and science didn’t interest me, but I always knew what profession I wanted to take up, while in college. It was not until my high school years that I begun to realize the chosen field I wanted to major in medicine. I was surprised on how much I had evolved on the idea of math and science. Still, I was very much unaware of my next step with fulfilling my dream in college. However through research and determination I would soon be able to work towards my goals.…

    I am not sure I could express into words how much I have grown and learned throughout this journey of my graduate degree with Capella. I had been wanting to go into this field for over 10 years, but didn’t have the opportunity to until a couple years ago. As soon as the opportunity came up, I dived right into it. Not knowing too much of the whole process of hours and requirements, all I knew was that I loved helping people and had a passion for it. I have been so fortunate to have the support of my family and more importantly my two beautiful girls. It has been a major sacrifice for them being a single parent going back to school. There has been many times that I rather no count that we couldn’t go do certain things because I had a paper to write. At first it didn’t matter to me to attend graduation, but seeing all the hard work that I have put into doing the best I could and the sacrifices they have made I want them to also join in the celebration because I am proud of them too.…

    I decided to major in history to continue the legacy of storytelling that my professors have extended to me. Initially, I intend to teach at the high school level because I believe high school is when a student is most impressionable, seeking to establish the foundation of who they are and what they do to find fulfillment in life. History has helped me improve both in other classes and in different areas in my life, and I wish to do the same for my future students. It has developed my ability to write well, both for personal and professional purposes. It has encouraged a sense of criticism that I more readily seek to apply to any and all forms of information. It has increased my awareness…
