...College Campus Crimes: Content Analysis Approach Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of model of term research paper Nandi Harris Mississippi Valley State University Rochelle Cobbs Victimology When you think of the word victim, what exactly comes to mind? Someone who has been physically or mentally assaulted against their will? A person who was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, right? Wrong, victims are people who have undergone a heinous experience of which they will never be the same again. When one becomes a victim, a piece of one’s life is permanently snatched away from them. If it wasn’t life itself the most valuable attribute that has been stolen from them is their piece of mind. There are many people that have been victims of several crimes and some survivors don’t overcome their experiences so they end up living a life of fearfulness and paranoia. Victimology is defined as the study of these victims of crime and the psychological effects they have on them from their experience. Victims come in every shape and size known to man, a victim can be anywhere around you at any time or you could be the victim yourself. I believe crimes take a toll on people the most when they’re college students living on campus. There are several crimes reported each year in regards to on campus college students, from a student’s car being broken into, to a student being raped on campus, all the way to students being killed on campus. According to victimsofcrime...

This phenomenon (change) has continued to be constant in this ever changing world. Considering the physical characteristics of human being, as well as the environment, change has remained obvious.

Hence, this process is healthy and normal for any organization to undergo, a business can certainly be complete after experiencing change.

SAGARINO University of the Immaculate Conception Abstract - Living in a boarding house or dormitory is necessary for students who come from far places. In Davao City, an observable statistics of university students from neighbouring provinces and the city’s outskirts live in these temporary residences. However, reports reveal that these housing facilities, most of the time, fail to consider students’ safety and welfare.

...Ms. Latasha Keith HUMN401-1305B-01: Literature and Film Professor Bonnie Ronson January 19, 2014 Unit 2 Individual Project – Canonical Classics of Literature Section 1- Introduction Ken Kesey’s novel “One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest” is set at an Oregon asylum in the 1950s (NovelGuide.com). The book is a study in the institutional process of the human mind, a critique of Behaviorism and a celebration of humanistic principles while exploring themes of individuality and rebellion against socially imposed repression (NovelGuide.com; SparkNotes.com; CliffsNotes.com).

...nowadays. However, it is recently that people notice the psychological importance of father as a significant influence on female character development. Empirical research has demonstrated various negative outcomes for females in single-parent homes such as being overshy, self-abandoned as well as indifferent to the sorrounding, all of which influence their life-choice. This paper deals with this problem mainly from how psychologically father-absence affects the development of the female character which strongly decides their fate based on Stephan Zweig’s novel: Letter from an Unknown Woman. Key words: father-absence， the Name-of-the-Father 1. Introduction Letter from an Unknown Woman is one of the most famous novels composed by Austrian writer Stephan Zweig. Its cyclically-told tale of romantic yearning and pining for love is embodied in the doomed, delusional relationship of the two romantic leads: a young neighbor girl's steadfast, sacrificial love for a self-absorbed, dilettante writer. Zweig uses the form of the woman’s monologue as a letter to show us a tragic story of her whole life: how she falls in love with her neighbor, keeps faith for him through her whole life while the man has never recognized or remembered her. Many critics believe that the root-cause of this love-tragedy lies in the indifference roused by materialism during people’s relationship. However apart from this, there is a psychological barrier in the character of this heroin, which should also...

...Internal Truth Fun Home written by Alison Bechdel is a tragicomic memoir that is chronicle of her childhood and young adult life in Pennsylvania, focusing on her difficult relationship with her closeted homosexual pedophile father. The main focus in this memoir are sexual orientation and social gender role; which for both Bruce and Alison, was something they were about to learn. According to the American Psychological Association (APA), “Sexual orientation refers to an enduring pattern of emotional, romantic, and/or sexual attractions to men, women, or both sexes. Sexual orientation also refers to a person’s sense of identity based on those attractions, related behaviors, and membership in a community of others who share those attractions”. Sexual orientation is something that everybody will experience sometime in their life, which for once allows us to be “standard”; but, the difference of identities is what makes us all anomalous. Within this world, society is made up of heterosexuals, homosexuals, and bisexuals, who are either feminine or masculine. Not one is better than the other, but particular identities like masculine females (dykes) or feminine males (fags) have the worst “to cope with the social stigma against homosexuality, [and] this pattern of prejudice can have serious negative effects on health and well-being” (APA) . We shall explore in further detail, how Alison’s open lesbian life succeeds against her father’s closet-hidden gay being and which is feminine or...

...An assessment of Michael Dell’s innovations and entrepreneurial accomplishments Introduction A topical background Entrepreneurship has special significance in the business world and has become a key driver to the development of the economy. It is a huge source of employment, economic growth, and technological progress (Kuratko, 2007; Reynolds et al, 2004) and represents innovation and a progressive economy (Orhan and Scott, 2001). It’s the process of value creation using the required time and effort and assuming the various factors such as financial, physical, and social risks, for rewards of monetary and personal satisfaction (Hisrich and Brush, 1985). Michael Saul Dell is an American businessman, investor, philanthropist and author. He founded Dell Inc. which is one of the world’s leading personal computer sellers. He was ranked the 41st richest person in the world on the 2012 Forbes list of billionaires, with a net worth of US$22.4 billion as of December 2014 (Michael Saul Dell Wiki Wikipedia Bio Biography, 2014). As a pre-medical student, Michael bought left over PCs from local retailers which he upgraded and sold. His hobby was wildly successful that he decided to quit college. In his first month, Dell sold approximately $180,000 worth of PCs (Michael Dell, Wikipedia, 2015). To expand his business, Dell realized that if he bought components and assembled the entire PC himself, he could use telemarketing to sell his machines directly to customers at a 15% discount...

...Abstract When a community of followers listens to the heartbeat of God, wondrous things can happen, and it did for The Rock Church & World Outreach Center (ROWOC). God has taught this once exceptionally small group of people to be a Christian church. God told the Pastors to come to a city that was full of sin, pain, in need of the Almighty Savior and filled with poverty. “Pastors Jim and Deborah Cobra had just started the church with a small group of people, and the Lord was already bringing in the broken-hearted, the sick and the maimed” (The Rock Church, 2013). With the promise from Isaiah 12:3, “With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation”, The Rock Church begins a life-long difference in a broken city. Then after many years, a mother and her son with Down syndrome named “Brian” came to service. The church was developing and expanding its structures at the time. The Pastor was preaching about how the members could help by donations to pay off the upgraded church. Pledges were being made, and Brian was only a young child at the time. He wanted to pledge. He wanted to get involved. His mother was astounded by Brian’s need to be involved. At first, the mother did not think of Brian being able to determine his involvement in the pledge; however she did not want to confuse the love of the Lord that Brian was clearly showing. She did not think it was possible for him to get, but she quickly learned she was wrong. This is when RCWOC decided to make a fully...
