Salvadoran Intellectual Analysis
As a Mount pre-nursing undergraduate student, daughter of two supportive parents, with Salvadoran nationality, and with a humble, dedicated personality, I thank God for giving life, guidance, and strength to keep persevering each day to become a better, productive person.

Adapting to a new environment with a diverse variety of traditions and cultures, norms and laws was very challenging; however, I was committed of making the best out of the opportunity that God was handing to me.

The culture runs in my blood, but it has been up to my family to pass on the knowledge that is held within the Salvadorian Community. Although the Salvadorian discourse community seems to only concern a small group of people. The issue should in fact concern the large U.S. population…

    Throughout life people are provided with lots of advice. Whether they take the advice or not, they should always listen. Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe teaches the lesson on why you should always listen to advice that is given. The advice given may not always be the best, but it should be considered even if it is not used. The book shows that if you really listen to the advice given, it will most likely help in the long run. Faustus was confronted by an old man who gave the advice to “leave this damned art and do not persevere in it like a devil.” When he was told this by the old man he did not listen to his advice at all and blew it off as if what he was saying was irrelevant…

They want their kids live in the places where safety, have education and economic development. They try to find the best way to make their children have the happy life. If they cannot bring their kids to the United States, they know the kids will be killed in someday. In El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, every day the number of the kids between 15 and 24 of ages was killed are increasing. They are the parents, so they cannot stop worrying about their children if their kids still live there.

    At the age of seven, I escaped the poverty-stricken neighborhood of Paterson, New Jersey because my parents’ priority was their children’s education. So when we moved to Georgia, I was thankful to have a yard, house, even my own room, but each blessing has a curse. Each day I realized why my mother worked at subway, why my father worked at a warehouse, why my mother had to walk 3 ½ miles every day, to and from work, in hot and cold, why my father grew anxious at the sight of a police, why my family could barely travel anywhere, even Atlanta...they were illegal immigrants. Being an anchor baby, I appreciated all the efforts my parents made, like driving me to school early, tutoring, and providing me with their love and support. Years later with the stricter immigration laws, my father got laid when I was in 10th grade and we soon grew very tight on money. Thankful a year…

    My name is Hannah Atakorah. I am a currently enrolled in the Family Nurse Practitioner program at Columbus State University. I was born and raised in Accra, Ghana, where there are not many hospitals or nurses to provide the much needed medical care for sick people. Education has always been an essential aspect of my life, but growing up in a single home in Africa did not make it easy. I was exposed to the medical field at an early age because I was fortunate enough to participate in a clinical volunteering program held in the city where I lived in Ghana which gave me a life changing experience. During that period of time, I was able to recognize how nurses are the most important people in the health care field. The sacrifices they make to give an individual top quality care are what make nurses phenomenal people.…
