...What are the benefits of undergoing an ample amount of diverse experiences while being considered a college student? The word diversity has a different meaning to every single individual but, it may be considered as a variety for the purpose of this paper; or the opposite of monotony. When students attend a university or college campus that encourages diversity it pushes them to go through these diverse experiences that may help change their lives in an array of different ways. Diverse experiences could consist of something as simple as joining a club you never would have thought you’d join or making a bolder choice like taking a trip to another country with the study abroad programs provided by higher education. It is important to keep in mind that although it takes will and a certain mindset to throw yourself at experiences like these, it may not be as hard as one may think. When students chose a higher education school they typically like to see that their future campus will be a diverse one, because the benefits that come with that type of environment are tremendous for college students. There is an article that was published in The Philadelphia Inquirer about the specific views of students and how they feel about the role diversity plays on their individual campus experience and the overall impact diversity had on them throughout college. The diversity generates a better classroom discussion, students say. Jillian Smith, a Dickinson College sophomore, said her courses on...

...Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Rationale Millions of athletes, runners and sports club are looking for an activity for their daily health awareness through foot race, jogging and marathon each day. At the same time, people are more conscious now for their body figure which really help them a lot to develop it well. Running is a means of terrestrial locomotion allowing humans and other animals to move rapidly on foot. It is thought that human running evolved at least four and a half million years ago out of the ability of the ape-like Australopithecus, an early ancestor of humans, to walk upright on two legs. Early studies on endurance running used X-ray and interview techniques to evaluate competitors and comment on performance. Since then, comparatively few studies have looked at runners competing in distances longer than a marathon. This study aims to analyze the feasibility of footrace in Cebu for long-distance running in order to develop a theoretical model for the marketability of foot race in the City. This pioneering study will assess also to the impact of extreme endurance on human physiology and the body's potential ability and willingness to in gage in this type of activity. The results will be of interest not only to endurance runners, but to anyone interested in the limits of human performance. Running competitions have probably existed for most of humanity's history and were a key part of the ancient Olympic Games as well as the modern Olympics. Although running is...

...undergraduate student. Similar, but less common, organizations also exist for secondary school student. These organizations bring out the best in their members through strong friendships and common goals. Most importantly, fraternities, sororities and social fellowships have an impact on their members’ lives in many ways, offering learning and life experiences through their core values of community service, friendship, leadership and scholarship. The formal installation of a social network is certainly a core and often-noted benefit of being in a fraternity or sorority. In joining a fraternity, one must undergo the initiation rites better known as hazing. Hazing particularly the violent kind has invaded most of our institutions. It is now prevalent in schools even in police and military academies. Hazing, as we all know, systematically develops a culture of violence among the youth. Hazing is hazing whether it results in death, mutilation or years of pain or whether it is done inside or outside the school or institution. LOCAL In the article “Fraternal Fury” written by Argee Guevara, he stated that there is something intriguing and frightening about the culture of college fraternities. The more we try to understand it, the more we end up abhorring it. As a result of two rival fraternities rumble, one was reported by TV Patrol to have been severely injured after getting a pretty nasty whack on the head when rival frat men pounce on him with lead pipes, clubs and baseball bats...

...consumer business in Asia. The branch banking business operations in 15 countries throughout Asia Pacific and the Middle East projected Citibank as a prestigious, consumer-oriented international bank and as the undisputed leader in most marketplaces. With earnings of $69.7 million in 1988, and a goal of $100 million in 1990, Talwar considered the launch of a new product (credit cards) as a way of growing future revenues. (See Exhibit 1 for 1988 performance.) Cards could prove to be an excellent way to overcome distribution limitations imposed on foreign banks in the Asia-Pacific region: first, by acquiring card members, by targeting customers outside its branch business and, then, by actively cross-selling other Citibank products and services to these customers. In the past, the credit card idea had met with skepticism from Citibank's New York headquarters as well as its country managers. Many in New York considered it a risky investment. Senior credit managers questioned the wisdom of issuing cards in markets with annual per capita income of $350 and also in markets with little credit experience and hardly any infrastructure. The Citibank management recognized that the economies of most Asia-Pacific countries were relatively underdeveloped compared with the United States and Europe; consumers' attitudes and credit card usage patterns differed country by country. In this context, several country managers were unsure whether the success of Citibank's U.S. card business could be...

...Chapter One Introduction Fraternities and sororities are organizations that play vital roles in one’s college life, the educative community of colleges and universities, and the society that these organizations are in. These organizations are present in about eighty-five percent of all the colleges and universities around the world. Commonly referred to as Greek societies these organizations provide great opportunities for college students to develop their skills and appreciate their interests with peers whom they call and consider brothers or sisters. Being part of a Greek society poses a number of advantages to individuals that are in their college years. Membership in a fraternity or sorority gives students the opportunity to meet new people and enjoy college life while still excelling academically. These organizations provide greater fields for their members to excel in what they do best and discover more things and gain more knowledge about themselves. These Greek organizations present wider social and career networking thus making school and employment easier for their members. But while Greek societies present such number of advantages, the brotherhood or sisterhood also has its own set of disadvantages especially for new recruits, pledges and neophytes. Cases of abusive initiation rites, criminal behaviors and sexual assaults are frequently acquainted to the concept of Greek societies most especially fraternities. Due to these Greek societies are also frequently...

...Instructor From:John Doe, Student Date:3/22/2010 Re:Proposal for the Addition of a Kids Day Camp Program at Red Rocks Country Club Purpose The purpose of this proposal is to suggest development of a Kids Day Camp program at Red Rocks Country Club to enhance the current member experience and attract new members. Summary Red Rocks Country Club is a private organization whose amenities include: an Olympic-size pool, an 18-hole golf course, a full-service restaurant, a private fishing lake and access to a host of hiking trails. Their vision is “A sought after, private club committed to our unique friendliness and natural landscape”. Their website markets the club as “A different kind of country club” and “a family and female friendly Club”. Red Rocks offers a variety of golf programs for men and women: Men’s golf leagues, women’s golf leagues, couples tournaments and Interclub play events. For kids ages 10 and up, they also have a Junior Golf program. However, parents of young children often do not have the opportunity to golf together. For both the man and woman to play, they are faced with finding private childcare on an ad-hoc basis. In the summertime on a weekend day, this is not always an easy task. What often happens is that the man utilizes the golf course and the woman stays home with the kids, which can lead to a “lopsided” perception of the club’s value for the family. I am proposing that Red Rocks Country Club offer a Kids Day Camp childcare...

...Witnessing the unimaginable rape case of a gay priest in the 1996 has intrigued my interest in law as I find it fascinating how a case over a decade was taken inconsideration in a jury. The case I experienced was very dramatic and exciting, this further interested me to the difficulties yet the benefits, of following a Law degree – for example, presenting legal and ethical dilemmas.as well as making me appreciate the system of UKs legislation. My educational experiences of studying Psychology has allowed me to understand the complexities of the human mind. Eye witness testimony is a critical component used in investigations and an important area of research in cognitive psychology. Psychological research has shown evidence gained from eyewitnesses is not always accurate and reliable, as people absorb and accept misleading information for the actual event; therefore police have to be careful when questioning witnesses. While supporting my analytical attributes. Studying ICT has provided me with a greater understanding of how technology is used behind cases and the legal impacts it may have on society, while studying Art has enhanced my ability to work independently and developed my...

...FACTORS ON THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF THE SELECTED STUDENTS IN THE BACHELOR IN BUSINESS TEACHER EDUCATION OF THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION SBUMITTED BY: FLORENTINO, MARJORIE S. BENLOT, ZENNY T. FIESTADA, NATALIE JANE F. BBTE III-3D SUBMITTED TO: DR. CAROLINE SUMANDE I. INTRODUCTION College is a very big environment to be adopted by new students. In order for them to adjust in this kind of environment, they tend to socialize in the many activities inside the institution. But in socializing with the different people and communities inside the campus has also an effect on their academic performance. Those social factors include organizations, fraternities, sports activities, and romantic relationships. Students socialize more often in college because it is a big community that needs the culture and rules to be learned or else a student will be left behind on what to do inside the institution. These rules and culture cannot be found only in books. It can be also found and learned through interaction with the co-learners and the teachers because there are times that the rules are changing based on the time, place, and people. But there are still some students who tend to explore more on the campus by joining the said social activities. The negative side of their participation in these activities is that they have a tendency to give more time than to study and do other academic activities. There are times that students are much focused on the activities of the social...

...Related Studies and Literature Local Related Literature In joining a fraternity, one must undergo the initiation rites better known as hazing. Some dismiss hazing as a parochial issue, to be dealt with only by the universities and academies involved. But in his article “Hazing should concern us all”, Juan Alvin Tiamson submits that it should concern us all. He wrote that by now, hazing particularly the violent kind has invaded most of our institutions. It is now prevalent in schools even in police and military academies. Hazing, as we all know, systematically develops a culture of violence among the youth. Most importantly, the bonds developed by hazing become seeds of corruption. Hazing is hazing whether it results in death, mutilation or years of pain or whether it is done inside or outside the school or institution. In the article “Fraternal Fury” written by Argee Guevara, he stated that there is something intriguing and frightening about the culture of college fraternities.

As a result of two rival fraternities rumble, one was reported by TV Patrol to have been severely injured after getting a pretty nasty whack on the head when rival frat men pounce on him with lead pipes, clubs and baseball bats. The cause of rumble is un-important since rumbles erupt for a variety of reason, none of which is intimately related to the pursuit of academic excellence, the repudiation of our foreign debt or the liberation...
