Obama’s Father Sunday, Oct 25 2009 

Week Six gswindell 8:43 pm

I think Obama’s dad would be depressed about the book, because Obama made it without his father. If that was me, I would be mad that I wasnt in my child’s life to see him become successful. But I beleive that Obama’s Father would be proud of him regardless of whether he was present in his life or not.

 

My Favorite Class @ Xavier Sunday, Oct 25 2009 

Week Five gswindell 8:38 pm

My favorite class at Xavier has to be my introduction to sociology class. Dr. Lee gives us his lecture, but I enjoy how he incorporates present day social circumstances, such as things going on in New Orleans into his lectures. Then, I like how he allows us to give feedback and voice our opinions on whats going on in society.

 

Poverty VS. New Orleans Sunday, Oct 25 2009 

Week Four gswindell 8:34 pm

I think poverty has hurt New Orleans by making it appear like its a lower class of a community. To me, 95% of the city looks like its poverty stricken. But the poverty does give New Orleans a unique look about it that differs it from other cities

My Future Professional Plans and Xavier’s Mission Sunday, Oct 25 2009 

Miscellaneous and Week Two gswindell 8:18 pm

After I finish school at Xavier and receive my pharmacy license, I plan on staying here in the city and work as a pharmacist at a local clinic. Then, once I make enough money for a house and another car, and to fully sustain myself, I plan on moving to Maryland to attend John Hopkins University’s Medical School, so I can pursue my dream of becoming an anesthesiologist. I beleive my future profession would tie into Xavier’s mission in helping others and bettering humanity.

 

The Reason why I chose to attend Xavier Sunday, Oct 25 2009 

Miscellaneous gswindell 8:11 pm

Ever since I was around eight, I always used to visit my grandma in the summer here in New Orleans. When we all used to go out places and drive to her house, we always passed Xavier. I never knew what Xavier actually was, but I used to always ask my grandmother what the building I saw was and she always told me it was Xavier. Then when I got old enough to realize that Xavier was a University, and a Historically Black one at that, I made it up in my mind that I would attend school here. Then, when it was my time to start applying to colleges, I filled out my application, and took the neccessary steps to get me here, and God made it possible for me to be here.
