According to Lawrence Cremin, in “Horace Mann,” the public school system had been instituted in the mid 1600’s. However, during Mann’s own lifetime, the quality of the education system had severely degenerated. Additionally, one of Mann’s former colleagues in the Massachusetts legislature conducted a study and determined that about one third of the children in Massachusetts were attending school, Yourdictionary.com, in “Horace Mann Facts,” asserted. Also, the teachers were inadequately paid and were typically of poor quality (Yourdictionary.com). Due to the worsening education system, public reform movements began.

This is why youths shouldn’t play football. Some say kids should be allowed to play football even though there is risk of concussions. Youths are very susceptible to concussions so they should not be allowed to play football. The number of kids in emergency rooms because of concussions has gone up. “Between 2001 and 2009, the number of kids under 19 visiting emergency rooms for concussions each year increased by 62 percent.”

Parents need to support their sons more instead of shouting at them and putting them under pressure. Role models and the international sports doping agency need to put in much more harsh and strict rules for all the professionals so that they will stop using these supplements and become a healthy role model instead of an unhealthy role model.

World War II positively affected women by giving them new opportunities both in the workforce on the homefront and in participating in the war. It somewhat negatively affected African Americans as their migration to the Midwest provided them with new job opportunities, yet resulted in racial tensions rising majorly. With men fighting in World War II, women made employment gains on the homefront. With the draft, many male Americans were enlisted in the military and couldn’t work, making many worry

This was due to the fact that Albertans had the knowledge that the Nazis would torture those who were disabled with atrocities. As a result, the pace of sterilization on disabled people was sped up. For almost 20 years, mentally disabled people had no rights or say to reject such laws from stripping away their identity and rights to reproduce. In those 14 years, 99% of 4,800 cases were proposed for sterilization in Alberta. Finally in 1972, David King, MLA Edmonton Highlands successfully introduced a Bill that repealed the Sexual Sterilization Act but it was until

In the article a world without work it is shown just how important labor is for not just veterans but all americans across the country, “According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the U.S. veteran population was more than 21 million strong as of 2014.”, that 's 7% of the entire American population in 2014. This may not seem like a very large number but about 360,000 military members leave the service each year creating the need for more jobs. The problem with a lack of jobs for veterans is rooted at the lack of awareness of just how valuable these people are in the workforce. It has been found that veterans can bring leadership skills, technical expertise, and the ability to learn new skills more quickly than the average job

In 2004, one million people were convicted of felony and 40% or that were African Americans. In 1945 african americans and white people were segregated in school and education, and they also lived in the poorest areas and had the worst paying jobs. The reasoning behind not letting african americans have a good educations was so that they would be able to get good jobs, they thought that would keep them in their place. And some even thought that they weren 't smart enough to deserve a good education.

Donna L Merkel, from Bryn Mawr Rehabilitation Hospital, states, “Organized sports have been shown to assist in breaking the vicious cycle of inactivity and unhealthy lifestyle by improving caloric expenditure, increasing time spent away from entertainment media, and minimizing unnecessary snacking.” However, it has been proved that it does in fact cause students health problems. Ferrara Jeanette, author of science line, reported to science world, “I found that children who start playing tackle football before the age of 12 are three times more likely to have behavioral and mood problems than those who start playing after that age.” This quote is significant because it is showing that even when you have been playing a contact sport since you were younger and people believe that it will help cause less damage to you when you are older it can still cause health problems and often lead to more. And can affect you for the rest of your life.

If we are to be properly prepared for such a venture we will have to continue space exploration, regardless of the consequences of putting more foreign objects that potentially could pollute outer space. Topic 1: In ancient times, various cultures interpreted the strange objects suspended in the sky in various ways. Some thought it was just a work of god and accepted it.

Considering the size of our country, this is sad to see the proportion of taxes that go to our education compared to other countries. The United States lacks knowledge on the

For many years, schools around the nation have focused on sports instead of their academic studies. Many studies show that these activities are harming places of learning. Therefore, districts around the country should stop this after class past time to save money, reduce the child’s stress, and to increase the learners grades As many Americans know, money can help to achieve a great education. In an article “Should Your School Get Rid of Sports”, it was found that “many schools can not afford to repair classrooms due to the lack of funding”(Ripley 10).The biggest events the schools have to pay for are the games, they have to pay for the concession stands, to clean up after the kids who leave their trash and they have to repair the bleachers

William Jaird Levitt -- Levittown Founder Introduction After the world war II, the United States faced a severe baby boom during 1946 to 1964 where there were about 79 million babies born in that time period. This was a direct result of the war where the soldiers would get married in order to get that $50 more which was provided to married servicemen. Also, the war made the couples make faster decision on having a child because the soldiers might not come back and the couple would want to have a baby together. The increase in the size of families in a huge level made people want a bigger house to live. But there weren’t any houses on sale because most of them were also increasing their families and needed the bigger house.

According to Charles Moskos in his essay on behalf of Georgia Tech, “The need to enhance the compensation of the career force is very pressing” (Moskos 1). Since there is a lack of payment in the career force overall, not just in the military, recruitment in the service could provide a constant source of income during and after the soldier’s employment, which would provide a foundation for his or her family’s hopes and dreams. In addition to his previous argument, Moskos also stated that because of the GI Bill, which was implemented in World War Two, “$43 billion in grants and loan subsidies goes to students who do not serve their country” (Moskos 1). The GI Bill was originally used to assist veterans from the draft get back into normal life through school loans and credit assistance. Since the 43 billion dollars is being wasted on non-draftees, money that could be used on infrastructure, unemployment subsidies, and economic development is now being spent frivolously on ordinary students and adults in America.

Sam Brownback, the 46th Governor of Kansas, has one goal in mind and that is to make Kansas the best place for families to grow. However, as of now, Brownback is not able to achieve his goal because he had caused a massive state debt due to cutting taxes. These controversial actions can put Kansas in a dark hole. Brownback was elected again by the Kansas citizens in 2014. Sam Brownback should not have been elected again as the Governor of Kansas because he is cutting money for public schooling, he is increasing the tax rate on the lower class and middle class to make up for his debt, and increasing taxes are causing Kansans to flee.

It 's an argument that can be easily be refuted. I think what the author tries to do with this essay was to send information and possibly change people 's ideas of the speech codes. I would say his essay is weak simply because he would have statements that did not have support like in paragraph 8, Posner was talking how the universities adopted speech and sex codes “because that’s what most students want” he would just leave the statement hanging, without making it clear. Also, I just don’t think his argument got many people 's agreement because he kept saying that These "children" still need to be
