College Admissions: College Acceptance Based On A Students Wealth If you asked most students what it takes to get into college, they would instinctively rehash what had been repeated to them over and over again: If you want to get into college, you're going to need good grades and extracurricular activities! But nobody ever told these students that there was a way to bypass these requirements and guarantee your admittance. It turns out that if you are able to, you can bribe a fair amount of colleges to admit you by giving them a sizable financial donation, I'm talking in the millions. Now some people will read this and automatically think that this is unfair and wrong, but I believe allowing colleges to admit students on the grounds of financial donations rather than academic and extracurricular merit is necessary in order to increase the quality of life for all current and prospective students and could lead to a change in the way we perceive college admittance. The giant donations received from these types of students can be put to great use, one of these uses is funding scholarships.
Hold On Crescordia, a company that develops, manufactures, and sells fixation devices that surgeons use in repairing broken bones, has a reputation of producing quality tools in the medical industry. Crescordia’s competitors launched these new, innovative devices, but the quality does not measure up to Crescordia’s standards. Peter Walsh, the company’s CEO, must make an important decision regarding the resorbable devices. This case presents three options for Crescordia: launch a resorbable line of products to compete with rivals, enter the market targeting a specific group to conduct field tests, or forgo producing any resorbable devices until the quality matches Crescordia’s standards. Crescordia should choose to sit out on the alleged revolution because it maintains their reputation as a quality manufacturer and improvements on resorbable products cannot be made until surgeons test these tools on actual patients.
Educational Benefits of a College Education In the article, “Is College Worth It,” Richard Vedder argues that college is not worth going for everyone. Explaining that college tuition has increased by double and is often more expensive than what students can afford, Vedder argues that it might be better to choose not going to college for some students. In addition, he states that after graduation from college there are not enough professional jobs. He concludes that students should consider whether college is worth it or not based on their academic levels. Although Vedder’s argument is somewhat convincing because he points out the economic problems of a college education, he neglects educational benefits that students could get from a college education.
Movies, media, and society are those who are false representing the criteria of college. School requires a lot of work. Bird suggests that colleges advertise activities that are provided, to lure in the high school student. In actuality, colleges wouldn’t advertise students doing homework or studying. Students want to see what
Why should we reward or praise an undocumented student who came here illegally? If we educate many undocumented students, in the colleges here in the U.S. why do we not allow them to later take up a job, obtain legal status, or at least gain a work
Discuss the conflict that is occurring at General Hospital. General Hospital is at a pivotal point where they have to adapt and meet the challenges that come with operating an older hospital or face loss of accreditation. Mike Hammer, CEO, has tried cost control but has been met with resistance, especially from Director of Medicine Dr. Mark Williams. This has led to a conflict between Hammer who feels he needs to cut costs to save the hospital and the physicians who say “they are just practicing good medicine” (Hellriegel & Slocum, 2011, p. 546). Mike Hammer believe that “physicians didn’t understand, nor were they interested in, the role of costs in determining the viability of hospitals” (p. 546).
There has been many debates to weather doctors should be able to refuse lazy/old patients expensive treatments as they are not beating their habits, so why should doctors have to give these patients the treatment when they are not making the effort to get their body in a fitter, healthier state, and there is people out there desperate for surgery who have made the effort to be in shape and they can’t get the surgery because it is too expensive,but on the otherwise, why should these people have to suffer without help? In hospitals all over the world there are smokers, overweight people and alcoholics receiving the same treatment as other patients that are healthier and choose not to harm their bodies by using harmful substances, which I personally think is an absolute disgrace. As these people who abuse their bodies have the same “right” to these expensive treatments even though some of the substances they choose to eat, drink or inhale cause damage, disease and infections within the human body, and not enough is been done about it. People that work for the telegraph would agree as on their website it states "Smokers, heavy drinkers, the obese and the elderly should be barred from receiving some operations, according to doctors, with most saying the health service cannot afford to provide free care to everyone." - this information can be found on -http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1576704/Dont-treat-the-old-and-unhealthy-say-doctors.html Some doctors say old people may not be healthy enough to survive operations and could be life threatening and doctors are allowed to discriminate old people if they think they really need the operations to cure/help them, however the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) says "doctors must not discriminate against patients who have brought their illnesses upon themselves.
Legacy Admission It is a dream of many students to be admitted into an elite college or university. However, getting into one has been a controversial issue on college admission for so many years. Some says that money matters more than brains, wherein college officials favored legacy student over the common applicant. Legacy admission is a process in which a student is admitted without enough credentials and not based on academic standards. Legacy students are getting preferential treatment because they are child of a wealthy, popular, educated, or alumni of the university.
Tuition subsidies are not as helpful as students believe them to be, but in fact cause more harm than good. Pursuing a higher education is a personal choice that students must take accountability for, mentally and financially. Let’s say Jill, a recent high school graduate, is considering applying to college. She evaluates her work habits, her ability to handle stress, and her motivation to complete tasks, and realizes she’s just not ready to handle the workload that comes with college courses. The logical thing for her to do is postpone her college enrollment until she’s ready.
A modern and dynamic name could attract more customers and add value to the hospital. The hospital is surrounded by ferocious competitors, which are known for their prestige and the incomparable services that they provide. Being unable to differentiate itself from its main competitors ruins its image, creates a confusion in costumer’s minds and results in making the image incapable to attract potential clients. St. Margaret hospital brand name issues One of the main issues that the hospital image has encountered is partly its brand name, which has to definitely change. As Mary advanced in the case, the name is old fashioned, therefore, it does not capture customer’s attention; it should rather be pertinent to the public.
