Alvin Ailey was an African-American modern dancer and choreographer who founded the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater (http://www.alvinailey.org/about/people). His self-titled company was started in 1958 with the goal of preserving American modern dance while also evolving it through the addition of African American cultural aspects (abt). Ailey later founded the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, now The Ailey School, and the Alvin Ailey Repertory Ensemble, now Ailey II (http://www.alvinailey.org/about/people).

In particular, the paper explores how social change-oriented youth people become aware of issues of public concern and attrempted to address these concerns.

Furthermore, in their efforts to effect change, participants forge largely pragmatic approaches to their social change efforts, opting to strategically navigate traditional and non-traditional forms of civic engagement.
It is an honor to be nominated for the National Honor Society. The fact that I was nominated proves to me that all of my hard work and dedication has not been for nothing. The National Honor Society is known for recognizing students who strive to achieve their best not only in school but in themselves and the community. I believe that I’m one of those students. Based upon my last two year at Matawan Regional I now have a 3.9 GPA and am ranked in the top 20% of my graduating class.
According to McClintock’s scholar-practitioner model, it expresses an ideal of professional excellence grounded in theory and research, informed by experiential knowledge, and motivated by personal values, political commitments, and ethical conduct (McClintock, 2004). As for Capella's scholar-practitioner learning model, learners acquire additional research skills, apply appropriate theory and research strategies, and share knowledge through scholarly publications and presentations (Capella University, 2003). When one looks deeper within both models, they get to view the many similarities that each hold to one another. Both reflect on how theory and research influence professionals to strive and succeed within their work. The aspects that McClintock’s model supports Capella’s range from acquiring and processing information to extracting and evaluating questions.
Being in the snow isn’t always fun. It is January 1, 1778 and I have been serving my term at Valley Forge. I have been very miserable which has made my experience here dreadful. I’ve finished my time as a soldier but I have the option to re-enlist or come back home.

Jack Ma once said, “The world needs new leadership, but the new leadership is about working together.” This could not be more true at Boston University through its Kilachand Honors College.

In this program you are learning with different individuals who have different interest and fields of study. According to Pew Research Center, “Political polarization is the defining feature of early 21st century American politics...”.

My literacy background started out rough. I was diagnosed with dyslexia when I was in first grade, but before that my teachers knew I had trouble writing and identifying my letters. I was taken out of recess and free time in kindergarden to work on flash cards in the hall with my teacher, which made me feel I was being punished. I was continued to be pulled out of classes and special activities that other students were doing to work one on one with a teacher or an aid on reading and writing skills. This I feel is the reason I hated literacy until high school.
