Women's Club Letters
Dear Women’s Club Scholarship Committee,
Many people have inspired me to become who I am today, but the one who I feel has inspired me the most is my powerlifting coach, Mrs.Timms. My junior year she asked me if I would be interested in joining the team. I had my doubts about joining, for instance; would I get super big, would I actually be able to lift a lot of weight, would I even be a contender?
Mrs. Timms has taught me many things these past two years such as confidence in myself and the weight I'm striving to lift, compassion when she showed me kindness by caring for me through her willingness to help me, and that physical strength is just as important as my mental strength. She also taught me many other things that I'm most likely not

    Virginia State University’s Athletic Director, Mrs. Peggy Davis, came to visit and speak in our Organization and Administration of Athletics course on Monday, October 19, 2015. She was very inspiring and motivational in her talk with us. She touched down on a few key points as to how she got to her position in athletics as well how to stay there. She started off by stating that we must learn everyday from successful people. When she mentioned this, the 1-Minute Manager was brought to my mind because the young man in the book was looking for a successful coach to model after. Mrs. Davis also mentioned that we must learn from our success as well as our failures.…

    Separating your work life to your personal life is just professionalism, but I think that this circumstance did not apply to Cheryl. Cheryl had to deal with incredibly personal letters coming from real people, so It would be impossible to just forget about their problems are revisit them only for the eight hours a day that she worked. Cheryl probably thought about the letters she wanted to responded to all the time because she wanted to give them the best advice to help them with their problem. She probably even shared them with Mr. Sugar because no matter how wise she was, it is impossible for her to have all the answers for all of her letters.…

    I have been part of Barrington High School’s track team for all three of my high school years and I intend on being on it again next year. As a varsity member for the duration of my track career, I have had the opportunity to be a leader on my team through positive energy and hard work. By working hard and continuing to have a positive attitude in both meets and practices I have been able to lead by example and have a positive impact on our track program. Other than my leadership role within track, I have been a leader by volunteering in my schools “broncos committed” program. Through this program, I have been able to attend middle school events, encouraging up and coming freshman to live a drug and alcohol free lifestyle once they enter high school. Being a leader is something that is important to me because I can make a difference by setting a good example for the people on my gymnastics and track teams as well as the other people in my…

    In this country, many feel as though health care is a right of the citizens. I myself struggle with this idea as I do believe we need to address the health care needs of our country but do not feel responsible for those that make poor health care decisions on a daily basis and look for us as a country to care for them. With that same thought, I feel a responsibility to help those that are truly trying and are not offered health care benefits through their employers, and cannot afford to purchase health care insurance, as well as the underinsured. We have to take a stance of what is best for the whole.…

    1. What is Matriarchal Culture? Base on the text, matriarchy means “rule by mothers”. (Wood 121). It is a culture where women are the primary leaders in the family rather than men (patriarchal). “Numerous very successful cultures have been matriarchal, going back to the most ancient of times, to include Egypt, China, and numerous North American First Nations tribes as examples. In these cultures, succession (who inherits what) was through the daughter, rather than the son.” (Ganderton)…

    Is it true that Goffman’s theory, about body language, defines a person’s gender? “Body language comes in clusters of signals and postures, depending on the internal emotions and mental states. Recognizing a whole cluster is thus far more reliable than trying to interpret individual elements” (Using Body Language). Body language is a form of communication that is expressed between males and females, but it does not necessarily mean you are automatically a boy/man or girl/woman based on your interests or actions.…
