Sue is a freshman nursing student who has always wanted to go to college but couldn't afford it until now. She wants to become a nurse so she can help people and make more money than she does as a waitress to support her kids. She is interested in learning more about science and how the human body works. Sue struggles with reading and test taking which has made school challenging for her in the past. She is concerned that balancing work, family, and school will be difficult and worries she won't fit in or make friends as an older student. However, she is determined to work hard to achieve her dream of becoming a nurse.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Why college? Why now?
• I always wanted to go to college, but couldn’t
afford it right after high school, so I went to
work
• I have finally saved up enough money to pay
for my classes
3. How do you plan on using your college
education?
• I really want to be a nurse and help people
• I also know I can make more money as a nurse
than I do now as a waitress, so I can afford to do
more for my kids.
4. What are you curious about in life?
• I’ve always wanted to know more about how
the human body works.
• I’d like to know more about science.
• I wish I had more time to read more. I feel like
there’s so much I don’t know.
5. What are some of your strengths or
areas in which you excel?
6. What have been some challenges you have
faced in school and do you foresee these
being challenges in college?
• When I was young I couldn’t read very well, and
it made me frustrated and mad.
• School was always really hard for me, and after a
while I just kind of stopped trying.
• I dropped out after 10th
grade.
• Eventually I went back and got my GED so I could
go to college.
7. What are some of your additional
concerns about starting college?
• I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep up with the reading.
I’m taking an extra reading class, and I hope that will
help me.
• I hope I can learn to take notes better, and do better
on tests. Taking tests really scares me and I get upset
and can’t focus, so I don’t do very well.
• I’m afraid that after work and dealing with the kids, I
won’t have enough time to study.
• It’s been a long time since I’ve been in school, so I’m
worried about being the oldest one in the classroom,
and that I won’t fit in and have someone to talk to.
8. My best environment for studying
• I like to study and read where it’s quiet, and
there’s plenty of light. I know some people
(like my kids) like to study with their music
really loud, but I need quiet to read. I’m
hoping I can study in the library or even
Starbucks when it gets too loud at home, or at
least study after the kids go to bed and it’s
quiet in the house.
9. Helpful Resources
• I’d really like to talk to an academic advisor. I
talked to one a little before I registered for
classes, but I think I need more help figuring
out which classes to take next.
• I also want to know more about financial aid
and how I can get more money to help me
take classes without having too many student
loans.
10. Reflection
I shared my answers with my husband. He’s always been really helpful
to me and he knows me really well. He knows I’ve always dreamed of
being a nurse and he thinks I can do it. He always has my back and he
believes in me. He says he’ll try harder to help with the kids and the
housework so I have more time (and quiet) to study. I’ll just need to
keep reminding him, I think.
Talking to him made me feel better about coming back to class. I know
it’s not going to be easy, but he thinks I can do this, and I know I can
do this, so I’m going to work my hardest to make it happen. I can’t
wait to graduate and fulfill my dreams to be a nurse and be able to
help people!
