Some people would have hated growing up in a household where the mantra “a place for everything and everything in its place” reigned supreme. However, I loved it because it helped me to develop my strongest talent- the talent of organization. I have used this skill throughout my high school experience, particularly through my extracurricular activities. For the past few years, I have enjoyed serving as the Executive Producer for my high school’s broadcasting program. Every week I was in charge of overseeing our broadcasts which included monitoring the script writing and reviewing the rough cut of the broadcast. I have also created music videos and other holiday video specials for my school. This activity allowed me to pursue my creative passion for broadcasting while also cultivating my talent for coordination and administration. Along with my role as an Executive Producer, I was heavily involved in the theater department at my high school. When most people

I have always been fascinated with all things digital media and during college hope to further confirm my career choice of digital communications. I have already experienced a taste of what broadcasting and journalism can be through my high school extracurricular activities, but in college I plan to dive even deeper into those passions. During college I also plan to remain fully committed to demonstrating my academic abilities. I know being in the Honors College program I will be able to connect with intelligent, hardworking people who feel the same. I am excited to experience the community on the Ball State campus, particularly in the Honors College. While staying on campus for the Ball State Summer Media Academy this past July, I already felt a strong connection among the students. I can only imagine the community I will experience as a full time student on
Hi there. My name is Genevieve (Jenna for short) and I’m proud to say I am a part of CCU’s class of 2019. I come from a small town in the middle of nowhere in Harford County, Maryland. I have two younger sisters, so I’m the first one of the family to tackle this adventure. I’m planning on majoring in communication with a minor in photography. I discovered my passion for writing/business/broadcasting when I was placed into a journalism class in tenth grade. I never thought I’d end up being the business manager and one of many reporters on a staff that created a 20-page newspaper every month for the next three years, and a main anchor on our daily morning announcements.
I am interested in continuing my educational journey in the University Honors Program at CSULB because I see it as a way to effectively enhance my undergraduate experience with its opportunities.

I have been adamant in enrolling in a nursing program that I will excell in.
Although lacking in some respects, such as previous community service, I have maintained a strong academic record and proven myself as a capable leader. As such, I view myself as a valuable asset to the National Honor Society.

My passion has always lie in the film and media industry, which made Hind’s film program the perfect choice for me.

I want to join the FIU Honors College because it offers its students the opportunity to obtain a greater involvement in FIU and the community as well as being able to pursue their academic interests with a diverse group of individuals. This is something I would love to be a part of and contribute to during my upcoming years at FIU.
The Honors College at ECU should admit an exceptional students such as myself because I consider my education to be the paramount element for my success in the near future. Although I am a student athlete I never forsake my education for my sport, track, because I know that my sport will only take me as far as a scholarship to ECU but won't be of much help after that. As I consider my education above my sport, I tutor my team mates in math because that's what they have a hard time understanding. Not only do I tutor but my teammates and I also volunteer around the community by raking leaves and shoveling snow during the fall and winter which helps us out if they would like to support the team with a donation. I like to hold myself to a higher
My interest in joining the Purdue Honors College stems from my desire to be a part of something that will inspire and support me while I pursue academic excellence within my field right from the start. I believe the Honors College can expose me to a focused learning community and opportunities for undergraduate research and experiences I may have limited access to otherwise. Pushing myself to excel in an academically rigorous program will lay the foundation for my future academic pursuits and career trajectory.
I am a Spanish major with a track in Secondary Education and a minor in International Studies, and I am an Honors College student. Hence, my course schedule is rather tight and does not have much flexibility. This study abroad program is of great assistance, as I will be able to get credits for my Spanish major and Honors College electives during the summer while exploring a new country. Through this experience, I will be able to enhance my academic interests. I am hoping to immensely improve my Spanish language skills and see education from an international perspective. Also, the Honors College emphasizes the importance of experiential learning through study abroad. In addition, my professional career goals include teaching Spanish and going

Five to ten years from now, I will be obtaining my graduate degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences after having built a strong foundation in chemistry, human physiology, and drug discovery. As a graduate student who aspires to synthesize and test new drugs and therapies, I will be working in a research laboratory or participating in an internship to prepare myself for a future in a collegial environment with other medical professionals. By this time, I would have already spent a semester abroad as a foreign exchange student in France to enhance my French minor studies. As an independent student who will have the opportunity to explore Europe, I will be able to expose myself to a variety of cultures and perspectives so that I could develop an understanding of global issues within the medical field and apply different frames of references to my research.
When I first received the letter inviting me to apply to the National Honor Society, my initial thoughts were of appreciation for the recognition of my hard work during this past academic year. To think of myself as a member of the NHS is an honor that could have a profound impact on my future. Over the past several years I have driven myself to become a much more motivated person. Along with achieving a GPA of 3.67, which is a personal best, I have also motivated myself to lose 35 pounds, which has helped me to have the self-confidence to take a more active leadership role in encouraging others to live a healthier lifestyle. To be considered a member of this prestigious organization is both an
I aspire to attend the Clark Atlanta University because it is a symbol for past and future generations of educational and operational excellence. Clark Atlanta University is the hub of African American leadership and educational expansion, and with the constant policing of the community and poaching of black culture in today’s society, it is significant that I achieve an education that represents myself and the world with which I am familiar and intend to change for the better.
So theater was where you began your career. Yes, that is where I started.
I traveled over sixty miles to see for myself the Rosenbaum House built by Frank Lloyd Wright. The last shutter click of the camera triggered my memory from almost a year ago. I am sitting in Scott Bernhard’s Introduction to Architecture class at Tulane University. I am drawn in by the story of Wright’s work and find myself enjoying the class and laughing along with the other students. It is my first time in a college class and my first taste of architecture. This is my element; I am in the right place.
We all have our roles to play in a group or organization. Like the old saying goes, “We all have something to bring to the team”. In my life I have been on many teams. When I was younger I was a supervisor in a retail setting. I have also been a police officer. In this paper I will discuss my role I play in my church as the lead broadcast director. I will talk about what my role is, and how I make expectations of performance clear, and what would those expectations are. I will also discuss what I would do if a member of my team was not performing satisfactorily, and what I would do to address the problem. Also In this paper I will talk about why I believe a supervisor or leader must continue to grow, and I will reflect on the class.
