    Yvonne Chibueze Disabled Transformation Commentary For my transformation I have chosen Wilfred Owen’s poem “Disabled” which won me over because it is not only an interesting poem in itself but is also informative as some historical horrific truths like the passive attitudes towards boy soldiers are exposed. Owen‚ who passed away in 1918 whilst in action‚ was not only an English poet but a soldier in WW1 who is renowned for composing various war poems though “Disabled” was written in 1917 and

    I think that in the poem ’Disabled’‚ Wilfred Owen is trying to convey the real tragedy of war.

In the poem Owen focuses on one young man‚ a single victim of war. It shows the effect the war has on the young man’s life‚ when on returning from the war he has been maimed "legless‚ sewn short at elbow" Owen writes the poem with

    The dumb jock stereotype has troubled athletes for as long as anyone can remember. Athletes are always seen as unintelligent jocks who get free and easy rides through school. They never seem to work hard at anything academically and yet they earn an ‘A’ from their professors. This belief has led to athletes being stigmatized by their non-athletic peers who feel as though their needs and accomplishments are ignored in favor of someone they view as intellectually inferior to them. But‚ if one were

    level and it’s growing rapidly growing. At this level athletes put a lot of their time to spend hours every day practicing. Right now‚ a college athlete cannot be given money for their effort or marketed in a way that could profit the school or themselves. A growing debate centers on whether these athletes should be able to make money for all their hard work. Every year‚ the NCAA and other universities earn millions of dollars from their athletes that everyone loves to watch. For example‚ the University

    Should college athletes be paid? College sports provide a huge source of the universities’ income. The school takes in money from ticket sales‚ television contracts‚ and sport-related merchandise‚ just to name a few. The athletes‚ however‚ receive their scholarship and little more. While the prospect of receiving a free college education is something few would complain about‚ when the issue is more closely examined it becomes evident that it is not enough. The trend for athletes is to leave school

    on many teams. The life of a young athlete is great‚ however‚ it can become very stressful. At all ages an athlete is forced to cope with school‚ sports‚ and a social life. Along with all of that‚ athletes are expected to deal with extra stress and even stricter rules. Over the years I have realized all student-athletes are treated differently and are held to a higher standard. (1) Why are standards higher for student-athletes a person might ask? One way athletes are held to a higher standard is through

    over 100 years‚ and in that time‚ it has been the governing organization for millions of college athletes. In recent years there has been major discussion recently pertaining to if college athletes should or shouldn’t be paid while they are in school. The notion that whether college athletes should be compensated has been floating around for years. I believe that colleges should‚ in some way‚ pay athletes that represent their school. With current television revenue resulting from NCAA football bowl
