Summary U.S Olympic commitee medal given to Jenna Huff

              Jenna's Kindness Summary

 Jenna Huff a cross country runner was at a track competetion. Jenna was in second place behind Deb Guthman a fellow competetor. Both were in the final stretch, until Deb collapsed unto a kneeling position and groaned in pain. Jenna astonished by the situation rushed in to assist Deb. Jenna then proceeded to grab Deb by the arms and support her, she told Deb "You are going to finish this race" Deb with the support of Jenna jogged toward the finish line, and to ensure Deb's triumph Jenna allowed Deb to pass through the finish line before she had. 
Reflection: I believe this act of kindness is magnificent, this hirl is a perfect example of a star competeetor. Jenna's self-less action has gained her the United States medal of extreme sportsmanship.This action demonstrated the compassion of an individual who will succeed. Many individuals would have taken advantage of the situation and crossed the finish line instead of assisting their fellow competetor, But Jenna has exhibited the traits of a proper champion.

Student Success Statement

               Student Success Statement

"Choosing what is right is always the right choice you can make."- Alex Linares
I agree with this statement; i believe this statement is correct. We are expected to grow into proper citizens and express our favoring for the rules of society and government. When we are children we percieve the world differently, we are highly impressionable, in these stages of our life we learn what is right and what is wrong through experience. When we perform an action and told that it is an improper action we understand the severity of the action. Society and the government set rules and moral codes by which the populace must abide by. This is the aspect that society controls within our lives. We learn about the severity of the crimes if we were to take part in these actions. But we have a sense of judgement. The sense of judgement will help us evaluate a situation and decide what is the right thing to do, through these experiences we learn what is right or wrong and we learn that we must choose what is right in order to evade punishment.

Student Success Statement

              Student Success statement

"you make your habits and your habits make you."= Anonymous
I agree with this quote, my habits do effect the mannner in which other individuals percieve me. We as childre are taught what is right, but we are also presented with the opposite of what is right and  that is improper actions. We are then heavily influenced by our upbringing, our parent or other influential forces aroung our home and therefore craft our habits through time and influence. Influence may either be beneficial or unbenenficial when we develop our habits. Habits can be developed at any point in our lives, but the stage in which we exhibit vulnerability, is during our childhood. We are then left to decide whether or not to mold our habits through a beneficial aspect or an unbeneficial aspect. An example is the habits developed during childhood, another example may be habits developed during another impressionable stage in our lives known as late childhood or puberty, The habits we developed will define us through an external and an internal aspect, Habits effect the manner in which society percieves the individual and classifies the individual.

Successful Students 9


              Successful Students 9
9. ……..do not hastily study for exams. Successful students know that divided sessions of study are more effective than a hasty study session, They practice the method of proper study every day.

If there is one thing that study specialists agree upon, it is that distributed study is much more adequate than hasty study sessions, late night, hasty, study sessions are known as “cramming.” You will learn more, remember more, and earn a higher grade by studying four, one hour a night sessions for Friday night’s exams than studying for four hours in Thursday night. Short, preparatory efforts are more efficient and rewarding, inattentive, last moment marathons. Yet, so many students fail to learn this lesson and resume the study method known as “cramming”, and therefore cramming becomes a wasteful habit.
When you “cram”, you are taking what Is known as a shortcut. “shortcuts” never provide proper results. Also when, this method is used, you will feel rotten and deceitful knowing that you could have done better if you had applied yourself. You cannot plant watermelon seeds and harvest fresh watermelons the next day. “cramming” for a test or project and expecting to garner a proper grade the next day, is as if you plant watermelon seeds

 Expecting to harvest fresh watermelon the next day. “cramming” for a test or project does not help you academically, so what is the motive behind the method. Planning ahead, preparing ahead, accumulate plenty of time and distribute your time properly.

Successful Students Parts 1-2


Success Students Part 1-2
Successful students exhibit a combination of successful attitudes and behaviors as well as intellectual capacity. Successful Students……Are responsible and active. Successful students are involved in their studies, accept responsibility for their own education and are active participants, It is the reason between leading and being led. Your own efforts control you grade, you earn the glory or you are given improper qualifications, you make the choice. Active classroom participation improves grades without increasing study time. You can sit in the classroom and take notes like someone who is an active participant in their learning experience. Either option will cost you one class period. However, the former method will require a large degree of additional work to achieve the same degree of learning the latter provides in one sitting. The choice is yours.

2. Have educational goals. Successful students have legitimate and are motivated by their terms of career applications and life desires.

Ask yourself three questions: What am I doing here? Why have I chosen to be sitting her now?  Is there some better place where I could be present? What does my presence here mean to me? Answers to these questions represent your motivations. Without a doubt the most important factors in you success as a university alumni. If your educational goals are truly yours, not someone else’s they will motivate a vital and prosperous academic attitude. If you are familiar with your motivations represent and refer to them often, especially when you are tired of being a student, nothing can stop you.
