Accordingly to Dr. Michael V. Miranda’s article “The Seven False Beliefs: Addressing The Psychosocial Underpreparedness Of The Community College Student” he argue that community college students not college ready due to the seven false beliefs his main focus is on the personal characteristics, persistence, and academics success as a student learns about themselves which makes the process of getting a better education. My overall reaction is that the teachers knowing the student’s personality could help them with the steps of getting through college successfully without noticing that they were unprepared like they are quick or slow learners what makes them want to give up also make it easier for them.…
Attention Getter: We all need our cars to get us from point a to point b but with the price of gas being so high, many people ride the bus or train to save themselves from shelling out money at the pump. Spending money is an emotional process for most working class citizens, especially if it’s something that we need daily but alas we don’t have a choice. We will always have places to be in life, but if only gas were less expensive, commuting wouldn’t be as taxing on our wallets.…

In this paper, I will analyze a section of Flannery O’Connor’s A Good Man Is Hard to Find. Nearing the end of the short story, there is a scene between pages 150 and 152 where the Misfit and the Grandmother exchange thoughts on their beliefs and how they questioned them. While the Misfit’s beliefs were based on rigorous examination and re-evaluation, the grandmother’s beliefs stemmed from blind faith, which, in a sense contributed to her demise at the end of the story.…

With cars all of this is much easier and way too faster than us human expect it to me. Today technology has exceeded human ability Albert Einstein once said, “It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.” This quote is exactly what we today are seeing in all great inventions, including Ford Model T have made a big contribution in peoples’ life. Few people use this invention for a good cause today, for example, we have ambulance helping people reach the hospital on time, police who attempt to decrease crimes by catching the criminals, and fire trucks who also save many lives. Something that is common in all these three professions is that they use cars to make this world a better place for citizens to…
As community members, we have responsibilities. One of our most important responsibilities is social responsibility because it requires all of us to make a difference. The issue in the video is using the cell phone while driving. Using a cell phone while driving is an organizational issue because it disrupts the justice system and results in many victims. According to the No Phone Zone video an estimated 812,000 people use mobile devices while driving, one out of three teen drivers admit to texting while driving, 5,870 people were killed and 515,000 people were injured because of distracted drivers (2010). This growing ethical issue has compelled people to take a stand on April 30, 2010 to form an awareness day called No Phone Zone Day (No Phone Zone Day, 2010). Not only is driving while using a cell phone an ethical issue, it is currently a legal issue as well in many states.…

Prejudice is a common expression in general on a small scale, but there have been many instances where an entire nation’s belief was based on a prejudiced idea. In Harper Lee’s novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, individuals express their version of justice in different ways. The novel is set in the racially separated town of Maycomb, Alabama in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The main characters are all involved in a plot in which narrow mindedness leads to pain and suffering. . In Maycomb County, prejudice rapidly spreads because of blindly brought up racist citizens and their need to blame things on someone else, but this stereotyping can be stopped when an individual defends what they believe, despite society’s beliefs.…
This world is full of the benefits of technology, therefore we are sometimes depending on technology too much. For example, one person would not move from there household. He can order something to eat by telephone, he can also buy clothes by Internet. This kind of service is used delivery system, so he doesn’t need to move from his house. This is one of benefits of technology called transportation.…
“Don’t be over self-confident with your first impressions of people” – Chinese Proverb. Even though people try not to make preconceived notions, it just seems to happen instantly and uncontrollably. Once you have “branded” that person with your preconceived notion, they will always seem like that when you see them and it would be hard to change your mind about them. The only way of knowing how people are truly is to simply give them a chance and talk to them and get to know them better because you may never know when your notion may be overthrown. It is my personal experience to say that my first impression of someone who is now one of my closest friend have been overthrown when I took a chance and talked to her.…
With the progression and advancements in technology, it facilities life for those who would need it, in regards to people who have lost limbs and due to medical conditions, have a really difficult time getting around. In an ideal world, only the truly handicapped individuals would utilize these types of technology, which is not the case. Much like the scene from Andrew Stanton’s Wall-E, where it shows every human being riding in a hovering chair to every location, while being obese with a TV screen in front of them. This prediction of what humanity would be like isn’t as farfetched as it…
