In Ben Robert-Smith’s opinion piece published in the Herald Sun on the 16th of January, 2017 “We Are One but We Are Many”, Robert- Smith addresses he Addresses the Australian public with the argument that is changing the date of Australia day from January 26th. He argues that the date should remain the same but should be undertaken in a manner that is “inclusive and respectful” of other Australian’s interpretation of the day. Comparatively, in Kevin V. Russell’s Letter to the Editor he presents the argument from an alternate perspective.
Gretchen Weirob’s argument is based on the view that physical identification is more important towards personal identity rather than psychological features. For example, Weirob believes that a person can identify with their body because they can see their body and it’s certain capacity; the body is very rational. Which is why she would not want her brain to be put into someone else’s body. She believes the body is the unique differentiation to an individual’s identification. Her argument becomes clear when she discusses the idea that someone can be manipulated, put under hypnosis or delusional to think that a different body from Weirob’s is Gretchen Weirob.
In his argumentative essay, Paul Bogard uses literacy diction and allusions to give credibility to his argument. By using words like Van Gogh, “Starry night sky”, and given.

Jan Rindfleisch support her argument by pointing out that minorities do in fact, make up half of the population in the state of California. She further backs her argument by expressing that it isn’t fair, nor does it make sense to have museums and galleries to specifically generate private clubs and exhibitions just to display an “ethnic-only” show. She hints that, that is whitewashing, ostracizing, and completely racist to the minority population. Rindfleisch then articulates that “Art is a visual communication,” and to isolate half of California’s population, it literally means that that visual communication is being impeded. The author finally then refers to how art illustrates one’s self, their values, and how it is reflected back to an

The influence of the media on Australian society can be seen from the introduction of free to air television since its beginning in 1956. This period of change in Australian society is known as popular culture when entertainment was aimed at youths. Popular culture is defined as, “The types of entertainment that most people in society enjoy.” This was heavily linked to the easy access to the public when television was launched after World War 2. An Australian icon who brought change to the way Australians watched television was Kerry Packer, who change the beliefs and values in Australian television and way of life.
In his argument for the establishment of a public school system, Benjamin Rush does not waste any time addressing the obvious issue of taxpayer burden. While acknowledging this would warrant an initial investment, he insists that by establishing a system of public education in America would overtime cut taxes, and taxpayers would see a return on their initial investment [JEH1] [Rush, pg.678]. Rush maintains a position that as we acknowledge the benefits of learning spoken languages of the world, our youth would benefit as much learning the languages of finance and markets. To properly defend our liberties against the throes of tyranny, we must be aware of defending ourselves from economic tyranny. He establishes the potential merits of educating the youth in the matters of economics, arguing it provides “the best security
In this article, the senator Bernie Sanders had a strong debate with the nominee to deputy by the president donald trump, russel Vought; about a post made by russel bought in 2016 implying that the Islamic community did not know Christ, and that's why they were going to be condemned. What Sanders considered discriminatory towards the Islamic community, and unleashed a long debate that had nothing to do with the current topic which was relevant to Russell's role in government. This discussion caused controversy because Senator Bernie Sanders was accused by some people of violating article IV of the constitution. This is a very complex issue because the statements made by Vought can be taken in many different ways because they are related to
In this memo I will be going over Higher Education Debates dealing with the fears of Asian quotas being imposed; as well as going over why there seems to be a trend of Asian-American parents who are more biased towards prestigious colleges. For the first article regarding Asian quotas, I will be summarizing and reflecting upon the six arguments whether it is believed that certain Ivy league schools impose a quota on the Asian-American population or not. As for the piece dealing with Asian American parent preferring Ivy League schools for their children, I will briefly summarize and discuss the cultural reasons why Asian-American parents are highly selective over their college choices for their children. In Ron Unz’s debate, he provides statistical evidence indicating that Ivy league schools place quotas on the Asian-American population
The South was firmly against the admission of California as a free state. Its main fear was the upset of power balance, as Calhoun contended, “the Senate, the last bastion of balance, would be stacked against the South by the end of the decade.” In addition, Meade argued that “[the slaveholding South] needed room to expand,” and that “California was ideal for slavery.” Despite their best efforts, the southerners’ arguments didn’t do much because of the fundamental gap between the North and the South on the issue of slavery; it was nearly impossible for one side to convince the other. In the end, Stephen Douglas put through the admission of California by “getting some men to miss a crucial vote and others to vote with the other side.”
There are many schools in the world for many people. There are schools in China, USA, Canada and in much more places.

With the year-round pressure pertaining to college applications on high school seniors follows the impending decision of choosing an appropriate college major. Generally, the decision-making process involves prioritizing one field of interest over another, however, due to globalization and constant innovation in technology determining a college major has increasingly become the modern day equivalent of the metaphorical line between life and death. Even so, the obvious choice would be the prestigious STEM fields over liberal arts due to the instant job opportunities which are seemingly ludicrous to a recent graduate. Nevertheless, liberal arts education should be encouraged to be pursued at higher education institutions in USA because it helps
At this point in history, wealth has become dominant in the judgement of the success of an individual by the community. Why is this the benchmark for success in society? I believe that this is because people view the wealthy as comfortable and happy with no worries or any stress on survival. The question I am looking to answer in this paper has to do with whether this “success” is truly what a human being should strive for.
