Our group selected the topic of diversity as our theme for the New York Times project. We live in one of the most diverse cities in the world as well as study in one of the most diverse colleges in the country so to our team it seemed like a great topic to tackle since we could all relate to it. The article I chose for the project was about how California went about making their colleges more diverse. Since diversity is a big topic when it comes to the colleges selection process, I thought that the article would be a perfect fit. Thanks to what I learned from the article I am now more aware about laws like Affirmative Action, and look for articles pertaining to it on new sites.

Pseudo E-mail- English 2100
Dear Professor Cumberbatch,
I’m a student in your English 2100 Tues/Thurs class and I was unable to attend your midterm on October 24th because of illness. I had the flu and I was bedridden all week because of it. I hope we can reschedule the test or find a way to make up the grade for it. I would also like to request any review sheet you have given to the class prior to the test.
Sincerely,
Juan Heredia Belliard

Who am I?

Well here is my life’s story. I was born in the Dominican Republic, which was a fun time from what I can remember, but had to move here due to my parents loosing their jobs. I’vs always wanted to live in New York, ever since we visited my mom’s side of the family every year, so it felt kinda of awesome moving there. Here in the Bronx I developed a close group of friends, we’ve helped each other throughout the years and experienced many events. So what would they tell you about me? I have an introverted personality, but I still like to try new things. I am well rounded and like a variety of different things from anime to formula 1. Oh, and i also like to sleep a lot. What motivates me is my goal to become either a surgeon or oncologist and start my own clinic. I want to get a degree in finance because it can hopefully help me run the business side of operating a clinic. The reason for this goal is fairly simple, I just want to help as many people as possible before i drop dead. And hopefully the songs describe the fire that keeps the goal going.
