Success in Multitudes

Phi Theta Kappa attracted me because it offers one particular benefit that I value, fellowship. Being a member of a body of students who all strive to succeed inspires me to do the same and gives me a sense of empowerment to complete my journey to a degree. I know and believe I have what it takes to reach my goals but the support and comradery Phi Theta Kappa provides, and the chance to help my college community, will instill values I know are essential to my future success. I was honored by the invitation to join because I knew the experience would be one filled with opportunities that encourage me to elevate my abilities. As I continue to write my story I’d like to break down the barriers that hold me back. I’d like to expand my interactions and make every moment meaningful. I look forward to the benefits of meeting fellow scholars and being able to support success. As a society that offers all of the right tools to succeed, I think nothing trumps the offer of collective diligence. I am excited to see what I can offer and what I can learn from others.

Morality?

By Anonymous -
By Luis K. Feliz Friedrick Nietzsche observes that “morality is the herd-instinct in the individual.” On the other hand, Alfred North Whitehead maintains that “what is morality in any given time or place? It is what the majority then and there happen to like, and immorality is what they dislike.” You should see these quotes as points of departure or teasers to goad your ideas. You don’t need to respond to the quotes above, simply express your opinion on the following questions: 1) What is morality? Where or how did you learn to be a moral human being? 2) Does the definition of morality change over time? 3) What is your definition of morality?

Art and Propaganda

By Anonymous -
By Luis Feliz The following quote is from the essay “Why I Write” by George Orwell: “What I have most wanted to do throughout the past ten years is to make political writing into an art. My starting point is always a feeling of partisanship, a sense of injustice. When I sit down to write a book, I do not say to myself, ‘I am going to produce a work of art.’ I write because there is some lie that I want to expose, some fact to which I want to draw attention, my initial concern is to get a hearing.” Is the function of literature “to get a hearing?” Please share your thoughts by posting your comments below and don't forget to write your name when you posts your response.

by Djene Keita, This is my reflection on one of the study questions about" Language and Communication" in the Honors Study Guide.  The Human species develops language to communicate and express thoughts. Among the many ways of communicating such as body language, spoken language is  singularly used by the humans and, that has distinguished our specie from other species living on the earth. The emergence of technology in the 17th century and its ongoing evolution has significantly improved our lifes and the figure of the world.  Thanks to technology, a huge progress has been made in different aspects of life. The creation of Internet, Television, Cell phones, etc… has brought convenience and added luxury to our life style.
