Being assigned to read the article‚ there was uneasiness on my part. What is this article a? What is white privilege? Somehow I have a general idea of what the article would be. Being a person of a different race‚ I always had this preconceived notion that people of the developed countries like the United States - the white-skinned‚ always feel superior over people from the third world; that this superiority comes from the inherent privilege that they have‚ that irrespective of the fact that a

Taking three different types of medication didn’t seem that much at first‚ but after having to do it for seven days myself‚ I might be considered “noncompliant”. As stated in the article‚ it is not just simply having to take the pills. In addition to taking medication‚ patients have an social and work life

On April 15‚ 2013 I remember hearing from Mr. Ham that the Boston marathon had been bombed at the finish line. The only knowledge I had of this incident before I read about it— was that it was a terrorist attack. After reading this article explaining about the convictions of the two terrorists Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev‚ there isn’t any sort of bias that I can see going on in this topic. Although the author doesn’t have her own argument about the situation‚ she talks about the dispute between

In George Orwell’s article from 1946‚ he claims that many individuals are aware of the common misusage of the English language today‚ but in general do not believe that they are capable of taking action. However‚ Orwell has a different point of view; he describes a weakening of language by political and economic origins‚ which results in misleading communication. He claims that the language is dimmed and that English speakers are thoughtless‚ and their carelessness of their language only exacerbates

I also urge my students to incorporate such self-reflection through a journaling technique into

Then on top of that fee the school paid an additional $600‚000 to create cemented barriers and have armed forces on campus during the meeting. Personally I feel these precautions were unnecessary however due to the way students were reacting it had to be done. Another

I chose the article “When Bs are Better‚” written by Michael E. Gordon.

This is a problem because students in America will ultimately become lax and not put
