A Visit to the Student Union
A Visit to the Student Union This is one more English project. Today, our teacher has instructed us to form small teams and look around at the one assigned scenario, and then write an essay of our observations. My partner and I got to make our observations to the Student Union. Being around 2:20 p.m., and knowing how many students are attending classes at that time, it amazes me that a big amount of people from different ages, keep coming to our Student Union to find out information about the different programs Cochise College has to offer. My first observation after entering that huge, beautiful building where we can find a cafeteria in which many students reunite to talk, relax, or exchange some pinions, was a big fat guy using a computer that you can perfectly read a sign taped on the wall that says "This computer is for Admissions, Financial Aid, Registration, or business office use ONLY", but as if the sign did not exist, the big, fat guy is playing the solitaire game and listening music on his iPod really loudly. What a disrespectful person I thought! Ever since that bad first impression, I kept looking and observing the students in charge of the front desks trying to give the appropriate customer service to all the persons that were approaching to them. One young girl is entering the building with two little demons kids, trying to fill out some paperwork in the financial aid desk, the poor girl, who was also trying to hold hands all the time with her kids so they could not get away, was frustrated because she could not focus on the application and the little demons at the same time. It was almost impossible for her that the kids could stay still for moments until one of them drop one of the belts that keep people in line and waiting for their turn. A couple of students walked into the building, but they went to the testing center that is upstairs of the student union. Very close where my partner and I were sitting down and making our observation

    Sometimes a stern warning is just what you need in order to push you to take a step back and evaluate your next move, especially when it could be a life changing one. In “Alumnus Welcomes New UC Berkeley Students with Stern Warning,” Shouak Bagchi, an alumnus of UC Berkeley, addresses the Berkeley freshmen class of 2017 with appraisal and advice for the future. Bagchi writes to the new students about what attending one of the most prestigious public universities entails. This article is rhetorically persuasive due to the fact that Bagchi is an alumnus of UC Berkeley. He references topics that the students can relate to and he mentions many of the successful alumni of the university.…

    Theodor Geisel (1904 - 1991), better known as Dr. Seuss, was an American writer of chil- dren’s books for young readers. His works have been widely read, since the 1937 release of “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street”, his first children’s book. While most of his subsequent releases were aimed at young children, he also drew political cartoons during the 2nd World War, which provide a backdrop for the motivation into exploring the topic of this essay - reading his works as a thinking adult. I provide an analysis of his more seminal works, from the perspective of a mature reader, while attempting to resolve my interpretation of his works, with the adoration that Geisel enjoyed among his younger readers. I also look at the utility, if…

    It all started at one of the monthly student government meetings, as the leadership class was reviewing details for a possible upcoming dance, and complaints of the restrooms were being brought up. As things began to wrap up, someone announced the possibility of a closed campus lunch, and murmurs were heard throughout the room. Although the news of closed campus lunch has quickly spread throughout the tech community, surprisingly the first time administrators heard of this was through the students, not the staff. Interviewed staff were not alerted to the situation, including Mr. Price, one of the assistant principals. According to him, he hasn’t, “heard about closed campus from anybody, only from the students. I see the notices I see what…

    Have you ever imagined of a room that sent such a good vibe that you thought it was too good to be true? Well, that is how this lunchroom was. When I walked in the first thing I say was the bright lit faces of the john Adams middle school students.Their faces were so astonishing that it but a big smile on my face. The poster filled walls were a bright baby blue with a hint of green. The tables were stunning. The colors were so remarkable that they were almost blinding. The pillars that stood high were covered with flyers of all colors. But the best thing of all was the smell coming from the cafeteria. It smelled like fresh pizza out of the oven. But what they were serving was much better than pizza, it was cheesy bread sticks. As my waiter…

    Connotation- The symbolic choice of choosing Saturday, as the day in the poem, makes me think that the poet wants to give an extra to the poem. Saturday is the day that is culturaly used to party out and have fun, but this teenagers, are not. The poet gives you a sensation of lonelyness. Also, the phrase used, by the poet " San Francisco was a postcard on a bedrrom wall" makes you feel a sensation of unreacheble. That phrase makes me feel that San Francisco is only a dream or something they know they can 't be.…
