Thomas Tsai
Thomas Tsai Thomas Tsai is a freshman whom just started to go to Coast Community College. His family immigrated to America from China when he was young. In high school, his grades were not the best and he doesn’t do well in any classes except those classes that he like. When he was still in high school, he had two extracurricular activities which are Chinese Club and Future Business Leaders Club. He managed to graduate from high school and now he starting to go to college. Since then, he had been working at his family owned bookstore. So now, he is major in business accounting and plans to transfer to Coast State College. He has a handful of classes such as Introduction to Accounting, Chinese Immigration to California, Intermediate Math, and Introduction to Reading and Writing. With both work and school, Thomas Tsai is surely overcommitted and so he needs to drop a few class. Thomas should drop classes that he doesn’t really need such as Chinese Immigration to California because it not a requirement class. His first class, Introduction to Reading and Writing is a class Thomas Tsai needs to take it every semester to be able to graduate or transfer. He isn’t very good at English which is something crucial because English is not his first language so he is struggling in the class. Out of all his classes, this class is the most time consuming. There is also homework every day and weekly quizzes which would make want to drop this class. However Thomas enjoys the class since he likes reading, thinking, and writing. This will motivate him to do the work. Also this class is also the first four classes in a sequence that he needs to finish before he can graduate. His second class, Intermediate Math was Thomas least favorite class since high school. Thomas math teacher is terrible the professor talks in a really boring voice which makes Thomas falling asleep in the class. Also he has received a D on the first math test. This shows how much Thomas struggles in this class.

    Ronald Takaki uses the narrative of the “Giddy Multitude” to demonstrate how the colonial elite used race and the idea of blackness to develop a social system of classification. White identity formation was made possible for white elite through certain types of work and the ability to accumulate assets. Social status also contributed to the economic context of competition over land. The law in Virginia was a legal factor that also contributed to the making of whiteness because it allowed poor whites to have privileges. Along with those privileges the idea of citizenship was created and defined in terms of who would benefit from this nation. In order for someone to be a citizen that person had to be a wealthy white male. Power and white identity was a way in which citizenship was linked to notions of whiteness, class, and gender.…

    W.I Thomas once stated, “If people define situations as real, they are real in their consequences.” Although the statement seemed confusing at first, after reading the section, I had a better understanding of what this statement means. W.I. Thomas is trying to say that a person's perception, behavior, and knowledge of a situation may change the way that person views what is being done. For example, in America, we typically wouldn’t want to drink out of a dirty puddle because we have learned that very are germs and microbes that may get us sick. In a place like Africa, on the other hand, the people don’t have knowledge about microbes or germs, so they may drink form a puddle if thirsty without thinking twice about it. The statement is based…

    I now shake my head at the number of emails I sent my advisor over the summer because of my dissatisfaction with my schedule for my first semester of college. Finally, I found relief when my credit hours went from 16 to 19 and I now had two business related classes instead of one. I had been enrolled in a course Principles of Selling in exchange for not dropping a course my advisor was going to be teaching. I flipped open my advising book and noticed that the class was labeled “year four” and immediately my face flushed. I’ve never struggled in school, and my biggest fear was biting off more than I could chew in college. Looking back, I now see that this course is not a senior level class but is a class upperclassman typically take in order to balance their schedules.…
