Social Action Project Process

As of right now I am currently looking for participants to fill out my survey, and participants to interview.

Resume

1) I believe that the resume that I observed was very thoughrough, and precise. The fact that he is bilingual is very important in job searching today.

2) Some of the strengths of this resume is the fact that it is very organized and well put together. One of the main strengths of this resume is the information that was provided throughout.

3) Some areas improvement would include some proof reading. During the proof reading he should remove certain sections that repeat information.

Probation/Parole Officer

I chose the probation position for several reasons. Most of these reasons include personal interests of the job position. One of these is because I will be graduating with a Bachelors in Criminal Justice Sciences this summer. The salary that I desire starting is also fulfilled by holding this job position. I did not only pick this position for this class, but also plan on pursuing this career once I am finished with school. Another reason I picked this position was because the fact that there were more than one areas that struck my interests.

What can i do with a major

I am in the criminal justice field and I have a few jobs in mind for the future. The one I am most interested in is to be a Federal Agent of some sort. The one that catches my heart the most is drug enforcement agency. Then I have some smaller jobs in mind like a probation officer and or, aftercare.

Free Writing on Sally

Sally French in this quote basically states that even though somebody may be employed to do a certain skill, they may have otehr issues that need to be addressed. Her tone is not angry, but more or less to inform the public of real issues today. In her case it would be her blindness. When it comes to the minorities and special needs, Shapiro makes it clear that this is the way it is because of funding purposes. He states that minorities are twice as likely to be labeled with dissabilities and seperated. These two acts have changed the American perception through tracking the use of people of dissabilities in the work place. These acts also try to protect isolation and segragation of the minority population.

Homophobia Article's

I beleive that the articles on homophobia are very interesting as well as moving. The questions that arise throughout this discussion are from the past as well as the present. The music video that was presented in the presentation was very funny, as well as very true. I think that the presenters of this topic did a great job in revealing the information. The discussion part of the presentation was definatily the attention grabber.

Shitty First Drafts Response

In response to this article I believe that it is the perfect article for this course. I say this because I am pretty sure that almost every time I write a paper the first draft is horrible, and this article helps me understand I am not alone. Lamott breaks a writing down into three drafts. There is the first draft which is described as the child's draft because the fact that you put whatever you can possibly think of into this draft. Then there is the second draft which is known as the up draft were you fix the first draft up. Then there is the final draft that is a finished piece of work. Lamott also states that during the drafting process there should be both editing and revising taking place.
