Reflection On The President's Honor
In high school I was on the President’s Honor for all four years. At my first college, SUNY Fredonia, I was on the Dean’s list for the whole academic year that I was there. At my current college, University at Albany, I made the Dean’s list my first academic year at the university, and expect the same for this semester. I am also in the Tau Sigma Honor Society. I currently have a GPA of 3.65 on a 4.0 scale.

    I would like to begin by saying that I am honored to be a nominee for membership into the 2013 Senior Honor Society of York College of Pennsylvania. I take passion in my academic studies and my community involvement. The opportunity to be recognized for the impact I have made on my college and local community is truly flattering. After spending my first two years at Millersville University, I began my studies at York College in my third year of college as a junior. Living in Spring Grove, I made the decision to live at home, work a part-time job, and commute to York College. These factors are all things that could have impacted my campus-life involvement, but I was determined to not let these factors impact my college experience. I jumped head first into the York College Community and was accepted with open arms into whatever groups I wanted to become affiliated with on campus.…

    The public education system in the United States puts a greater emphasis on test scores and grades that it does actual learning. While around 80 percent of high school students graduate, most of them are not being prepared for what comes next. I have come to believe that there is more to education that a decent GPA, so I have tried to enrich myself with as much real-world experience as possible during my time in high school, while still trying to maintain my grades. My time in leadership positions, desire to work with other intellectual individuals, and rigorous academic goals all make me an exceptional candidate for the Honors College at East Carolina University.…

    Salutations, General Washington, it has been an honor serving with you. However, it was very difficult to leave my wife and children, but in the end, it was far worth it. Freedom from the British was a painstaking, grueling task. It put hardships on us all and was difficult from the frigid temperatures, lack of food, losses, and always moving for another battle. I distinctly remember the battles we had fought together.…

    Why did FDR, Kennedy and Reagan win the hearts of America, while G.W. Bush, Nixon and Hoover are thought of as practically failures? Why is Eisenhower more popular than Carter? These are questions that not many people think about on a day-to-day basis- in fact, many people just accept, sometimes even without much proof, that certain presidents were better than others. Sure, the circumstances in which they were in office probably helped people choose which presidents are better than other (FDR in getting America out of the Great Depression, vs. say, Nixon and how he dealt with Vietnam), but it goes deeper than…

    The National Honor Society is a group of students that exemplify the traits of leadership, character, citizenship, and intelligence. It is crucial that the future members of this organization exhibit these characteristics to the best of their abilities. For a great majority of my student life, I strived to perform these traits to my utmost capability, aiming to become an excellent example for my fellow peers. Throughout my high school career, I have been on the honor role for every quarter thus far. I feel deep pride and satisfaction in my grades and scholarly accomplishments, for they are a visual example of the hard work and large amount of effort I put into my studies. Although I not acquired any formal leadership positions, I exert my leadership abilities by example. In my classes, I often…

    Bill, I have to ask you’ll How did you go from America’s dad to the most hated man in America. It is funny how life works. One day your beloved then the next day Fox Five reports you as a rapist and your legacy is gone; man you almost left this world with a clean image you could have been in the same light as Martin Luther King and Gandhi. Life is funny like that. I remember one day my childhood friend Jose left my house and he told me; let's go to the store but I told him I'm going back upstairs to go to sleep. The next morning I woke up and came downstairs to the first floor and saw Jose's mom; and she told me to come inside and sit down. She was shaking she couldn’t even speak but eventually she explained to me that the store Jose…

    After watching the state of the union address given by President Obama, the speech got me thinking and evaluating how well the president has done thus far into his term. The president interacted with the congress very well throughout the speech. Every time he paused, the audience would give him a standing ovation. He even tried to throw a bit of humor into the speech by saying “…milk was somehow classified as an oil. With a rule like that I guess it was worth crying over spilled milk.” So for his ability to connect with his audience in congress, I award him an 8 out of a possible 10 points.…
