Conventional wisdom has it that society has been taught to be accepting and kind to the people around them, kindness can vary among social groups due to different backgrounds, ethnicity, and learned prejudices. It can be trialing for someone experiencing hyper-diversity to be affable and work towards social justice for minority groups, while doing this, they in turn, express a sense of integrity. All throughout the book Outcast United written by Warren St. John, the author writes about and capitalises a few of Bethel College values such as diversity, community, and service. As Outcasts United began to unfold, one can noted many values that endorse those of Bethel College, St. John amplifies certain ones. The most prevalent value is diversity,
However, if she had been a younger professor and had been able to immerse herself in the freshman college experience, her research and her evidence would have turned out to be more persuasive and supportive. In terms of her credence, Nathan is a reliable source as a scholar, a writer, a co-founder, and an award winner but as a 21st century college student that is where it seems her credibility wavers a bit because she has not experienced the modern freshman year at the age of a typical college student. In terms of her claims and reasoning, her appeals seem to hold strong as she draws information from outside sources such as Levine and Cureton (60), and the Carnegie Foundation and the Advancement of Teaching (44) and is able to build a strong backbone for her argument. Relating to Nathan’s emotional appeals, her strategy of talking directly to the international students and sharing their feelings about diversity and community in her research was extremely effective because it gave Nathan’s audience some insight and direct evidence of her claims and the truth behind them. Overall, Nathan executed chapter three, “Community and Diversity” of My Freshman Year very well using her credence, her claims and supporting ideas, and her emotional appeals to the audience to her greatest advantage and using it to create a very persuasive
As stated in the previous chapter connection, there are many challenges that stand in the way of urban education. The main issue discussed in chapter 10 of the book “Affirming Diversity: The Sociopolitical Context of Multicultural Education” by Sonia Nieto and Patty Bode, was the issue of bilingual programs never having enough support by schools. In addition “bilingual teachers have been segregated programmatically and physically from other staff members, making both teachers and students feel isolated from the community (p.380)”. This issue has always been highly debated because while some people believe bilingual programs work, others believe the opposite. Regardless of who is right or wrong, the truth is that we live in a country that
Another quote that shows how the community can
If a school consists of only one type of race or ethnic group, then the students are isolated to the ideals of that specific community. But if diversity exists, the opportunity arises to learn about different cultures and become more well-rounded. This is illustrated by Owen and his best friend Dave, who is white. Even though Owen and Dave are two different races, they do not let that prevent them from being friends. They use their differences as an advantage to learn from each other and to help each other out.
The direct primary during the Progressive reform impacted competition in American elections. The American electoral system is the primary mechanism of democratic control, and democracy requires choice that requires competition. During the Progressive era, single parties prioritized the wealthy elite over the needs and wants of the people, therefore creating a system called Party Boss. To eliminate this system, the progressives wanted to enhance competition and popular choice by emphasizing selecting a party nominee for federal and state through a direct primary. Therefore, direct primaries impacted party competition and strengthen democracy through the extension of two party competition and the rise of incumbency.
As a grownup and an adult for that matter, one cannot be like others one has learned from. One should not make efforts to live like ones’ parents, teachers or elders in our society. One must strive to be one ’s own true self. Emerson is convincing that nonconformity is genius.
Over the next few years North Carolina Central University will be more diverse in the student body because of the world itself is already diversed. NCCU will have more diversity over the next years because of the academics that it provides, the motto that we stand by “Truth and Service” and because of the generous people that work here. Also the professors that teach the students the outstanding knowledge that will lead them and stick with them for the rest of their lives. NCCU was founded by James E. Shepard and opened on July 5, 1910. His reason for building the institution was because in that era in time the support for African American education in the southern states was very limited.
The Bronx is a community that is diverse. It is filled with people from different backgrounds that with different issues. This biggest misconception of the Bronx is that it is a community that does not help each other when in need. The borough does not have the glamour of Manhattan or the beaches of Staten Island, but what it does have is a community that is willing to help those in need. Part of the Solution has been committed to helping those who are struggling financially for more than 30 years.
The Diversity University event was not what I expected it to be. In fact, I had no idea what it was about at all. I literally went around campus to see if anything exciting was going on. I was curious and I saw a promotion board outside of my residence hall. Immediately, I walked over to the Rayburn Student Center where the event was taking place.
This students’ tale is one that embodies what diversity at Rutgers means, his story is something so unique that I believe it can only be found here. The diversity of Rutgers University, has made my experience at Rutgers exciting, prompting me to interact with people that I previously may have been too shy to interact with. The diversity of the campus, students, and staff make Rutgers a comfortable place to live as there will always be at least one person that matches your interest here, whether it is playing Pokemon Go, Kendama, or even just Underwater Basket Weaving. The diversity of Rutgers University has helped me find not only people that match my competitive nature but compliment it with their own fiery natures, which has made Rutgers a place that I can honestly say I love and
Individualism not only helps a society grow, but also help the people in it realise that they are good at doing. Richard Koch in this article “In Individual Good or Bad,” compared the pros and cons of individualism. He believes that “individualism has been an enormous success in encouraging ordinary people
Diversity & Inclusion To better deliver enhanced care for a diverse population of patient, it is imperative that healthcare organizations upsurge the diversity of their staff. As a leader, it will be my ultimate objective to develop a platform of diversity and inclusion in order to engage the rest of the team and provide first-rate, unbiased care for all. Diversity is paramount in healthcare for the elimination of health disparities in the quality and access of health services. The health of certain percentage of the population such as minorities continue to lag behind due to the issues such as access to healthcare and its quality. This has been as a result of ineffective patient-provider communication and also provider prejudice.
(Analysis) This quote shows that if one joins together with a community, everyone will benefit rather than trying to stand
This quote really embodies my message, and the manner in which, I believe, my community should carry themselves. The impression of the matter is people in my community often do kind things just for recognition. If I had the authority, I would ensure that they are carried out for long periods of time rather than once or twice. If I had the authority to change this about my community I
