    This article written by Judith Gill and Karen Starr highlights the history of gender reform in the Australian education system and the backlashes associated with it. The main debate which is being discussed in this article is that of disadvantaged boys. After a long time of feminists fighting for equal rights of girls in Australian schools, the Boys in Education lobbyists are fighting for increased attention to be given to boys in schools. Gill and Starr don’t believe that the boys are disadvantaged and have written this paper to demonstrate the superfluousness of the Boys in Education lobby and the lack of necessity for their demands.…

    When discussing utilizing the nurse to their full extent, the IOM report touches on how the nurses are able to practice within different scopes, not based on the extent of the education or their training, however it is based more off of which state the nurse practices in. For example, in some states a nurse practitioner is able to write prescriptions without a supervising physician, and other states do not. This is a clear example of the education or training not determining the extent the nurse practices at, yet the states they are governed by making the decision. With the ever-growing population, it is said in the IOM report that it would be more beneficial to have more nurses at an advanced level in outpatient settings. It is in the best interest of the community in my opinion, which we allow advanced practice nurses or APRNs to practice to their full scope, especially when it comes to primary health care. In Las Vegas it takes 4-6 weeks to get in with most physicians, even as an established patient. With that being said, people are choosing to utilize the ER as their primary care provider because they will get care faster. This leads to overcrowding of the ERs. Additional benefits to allowing nurses to practice to their full extent include improved access to the care of the poor and rural areas, respite and palliative care, care coordination for the chronically ill and elderly, nutrition services, and evaluations that compliment care of other physicians and providers.…

    I really enjoyed participating and learning about America’s dynamic political policies. This class was very useful and I have used the social, cultural, political, governmental and economic prism method to dissect numerous policy topics for other classes. The format encouraged class discussion and it was engaging to hear what other students thought on hot topic issues. I also believe this course taught me how to have more meaningful political conversations by learning how to refrain from personal political ideology and rhetoric.…

    “It is not always the same thing to be a good man and a good citizen” (Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics). Although civil disobedience may cause divisive rhetoric and chaos, nonviolent resistance positively impacts a free society by providing an impetus for progress and starting a dialogue about injustice. Our nation was founded on principles of civil disobedience. In Federalist #51, James Madison proclaimed, “If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary.” Instead, it is up to humankind to ensure that our government protects the rights of all people.…
