[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Adjusting to change is an integral part of what it means to be human; the extent to which man's world is filled with constant modification of one sort or another is both grand and far-reaching. That life is one progressive transformation from one aspect to another speaks to the need for people to learn to adapt to these changes; while many are small and subtle in nature, others – like adapting to a co-ed college from an all-girls or all-boys school – can represent one of the most challenging of all life changes.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Online Degree Programs
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing the value of Internet-based study. The availability of online degree programs opens a wealth of possibilities to those who would have no access to those programs in only the traditional setting.

The advantages outweigh those negatives, however, allowing the Internet to assist in bringing high-quality education to a greater number of people, and in a wider range of socioeconomic demographic groups. It allows the "late bloomer" adult or the mid-life career-changer the freedom to pursue new interests, and to gain the degrees necessary for securing positions in which their years of practical work experience can be of benefit to greater numbers of people.

African Americans' College Enrollment
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page research proposal seeking to determine why more African American students do not seek college admission. Black and white Americans enjoyed momentary equality in terms of enrollment in colleges and universities in 1976. That equality was short lived as disparities grew until 1982, when the racial gap between African American and white students grew to 10 percent. All college enrollment has increased in recent years; African American students have made the greatest gains among minority students. By 2003, the racial gap had declined to less than 8 percent and 54.8 percent of all African American students completing high school entered college during their first year after high school. There is some evidence that the state of the national economy may be a predictor of African American college enrollment, but there is also evidence that African American students are discouraged from attending college in the form of negative messages regarding likelihood of success. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Includes an abstract.
