Being an active member of a community is vital to the success of our world. Though there are many ways of contributing to the community, everyone needs to do what they can to help. There are many ways that engineers affect the community that I live in each and every day, however there are some very distinct ways that it is connected to our community. I have focused on Chemical engineering, which can be used to help agriculture. There are an endless amount of ways to help the community, so why not start with the backbone of everything. By being an active participant in the community, I have both helped and worked with many people. I have been involved in many different extracurriculars where I got to meet a lot of great people. This community has always been a part of my life, and it always will be. I will be attending Iowa State University for the next four years, after which I would like to return to this community and continue to participate in community events. …show more content…

There is always opposition to pesticides because of the harm that it can cause on the environment and the animals alike. Pesticides though have saved a lot of hard work for farmers over the past couple of decades because it does all the dirty work, for example, the killing of weeds and other pests. Pesticides have also saved a lot of money for farmers by preventing pests from damaging crops or taking the nutrients and water supply away from crops. (Whitford, 7) In the future we need to start to find less toxic ways to prevent pests from attacking the crops and vegetation. This would prevent a lot of the other costs associated with pesticides for example, health costs for farmers that are exposed to the toxic chemicals or the killing of the habitats in the surrounding areas.

Unlike Utilitarian ethics, a consequentialist moral theory, or Kantian ethics, a moral theory based on the alignment of one’s will and one’s duty, Aristotle’s Virtues Ethics does not discuss morality of single actions but rather “what sort of person should one be? What does it mean to live a good life?” This is important for engineers to ask a similar question in their professional career, “What does it mean to be a good engineer?” because they impact society’s ability to innovate and progress technologically, while maintaining or increasing society’s quality of life. The effects engineers have has been discussed in class, including examples like the development of the lightbulb, radio, and concrete.

The members played a big part in this personal growth of mine, as well. I was shocked when random community members would come up to me to congratulate me on a win or ask how the teams are looking.

Some of the greatest lessons that I have taken from high school are lessons that have nothing to do with the curriculum.
