Freedom of speech affects a college student and you

You should care whether or not you're a college student.

Naomi Wolf suggests that the University of Florida's tasering of a student is a watershed. I believe that someone should not be tasered in real life for being rude, no matter what we might see in the movies. Who would Jesus taser?

Federal Student Loan Official Quits

It looks like the Federal Student Aid office has been lax in overseeing the student loan industry. Details...

The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW) have two scholarships that are over $10,000. You can click on the title of today's post to find out about the written essay.

The other is somewhat unique in that it is an audio essay.

http://www.vfw.org/index.cfm?fa=cmty.leveld&did=150

The link is directly above and the following paragraphs are taken from the site with only minor editing.

Created in 1947, the Voice of Democracy (VOD) scholarship program is an audio-essay contest for high school students in grades 9-12 that annually provides more than $3 million in scholarships. The first-place winner, who competes with all the first-place VFW Department winners, receives a $30,000 scholarship that is paid directly to the recipient’s American university, college or vocational/technical school.

Besides competing for the top scholarship prize, as well as other national scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $16,000, each Department's first-place winner receives an all-expense-paid trip to Washington, D.C..The VOD program is endorsed by the National Association of Secondary School Principals' contest criteria and is designed to foster patriotism by allowing students the opportunity to voice their opinion in a three to five minute essay based on an annual theme.

Students can enter by submitting the required entry form, along with their essay and recording to a local VFW Post.

Allegheny Is A Hidden Gem

I know someone who just decided on Allegheny - a pastor's kid no less. I'm told that this school has all kinds of really incredible stuff going on. U.S. News & World Report's 2007 Edition of America's Best Colleges says biology/biological sciences, psychology, economics, political science and government, and English language and literature are the most popular majors.

Some people might say, "I've never heard of it." Well...now you have. Allegheny College looks reallllly good. They say that they're changing lives.

Check it out by clicking on the link above or the title of today's post. Really. Take a look. You never know. You might enjoy Pennsylvania.

Finding My Way From RealityChangers.org To ScholarshipAmerica.org

I just recently met someone while I was volunteering at Reality Changers who sent me a list of scholarships sites to check out. While in the process of doing that, I ran across a Tylenol Scholarship. I had some difficulty getting to the scholarships from the Tylenol site, but found ScholarshipAmerica.org after realizing that they had changed their name from Citizens' Scholarship Foundation of America, Inc. to Scholarship America.

These are a couple of the sites that got me there.

http://www.tylenol.com/page.jhtml?id=tylenol/news/subptyschol.inc

http://www.collegescholarships.com/scholarships_63.html

Researching scholarships isn't always easy as not everyone is making an effort to improve the usability of their site. This blog is just beginning for me. If you have scholarships sites you want to let others know about, email me. I prefer links to the actual scholarship, like this one:

That way, you can see if that particular scholarship is for you and then you can click on a link to see more about that particular organization.

Right from LCD website:

ABOUT US
The Tomás Rivera Policy Institute

This website is an initiative of the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute (TRPI), a nonprofit organization that advances informed policy on key issues affecting Latino communities through objective and timely research contributing to the betterment of the nation.

TRPI is an affiliated research unit of the University of Southern California School of Policy, Planning, and Development, and is associated with the Institute for Social and Economic Research and Policy at Columbia University.

The Scholarship ProjectIn 2005, The Walt Disney Company commissioned a TRPI study titled College Scholarships for Latino Students: Are Opportunities Being Missed?, which found that online scholarship information was plentiful but often outdated, not actively disseminated, and in English only.

In November 2006, with funding from The Sallie Mae Fund, The Walt Disney Company, and Southern California Edison, TRPI was able to develop an inaugural 2005/2006 printed scholarship directory. This directory listed all the regional organizations that TRPI could identify which award grants and scholarships targeting eligible California Latino students.

California Scholarships For Teacher Dependents And Future Teachers

If you are the child of a public school teacher in California, the CTA Scholarship for Dependent Children may be for you. Click on the title of today's post to see the details. While it's too late for 2007, I assume that it will be available next year with a similar application deadline in January 2008.

Twenty-five (25) $2,000 scholarships are awarded.

Below is a link to more scholarships through the California Teachers Association.


http://www.cta.org/temporary_pages/nonmember_scholar_info.htm

If you are interested in becoming a teacher, there are scholarships available whether or not you are a teacher's dependent. Outside of California check your state's teacher organization for scholarships available. You can start at the National Education Association (NEA) to find your state's organization. That's what I did this morning.

Scottrade, Telluride, Venegas And More On The Net

I was pretty active online in the last day or so and finished a post about what we have accomplished at Scottrade and I found a great website for high schoolers along the way and a great Spanish language singer, Julieta Venegas. Love the net and Zune.

Click on the title of today's post to see what I said about our stocks and Scottrade. Anyone a future stockbroker out there? Future Investor?

BUT, the truly big deal for college bound sophomores and juniors is The Telluride Association.

http://www.tellurideassociation.org/

If you have academic goals, you really should check out the website. Here's something a lot of pre-college people might be wondering about. Does it cost anything? No. Well, you do have to get yourself to the site, but what an incredible opportunity for six weeks [!] of college level work and creativity with other people your age. They really look at your entrance essay instead of your GPA!

Here are topics from previous TASP seminars:

http://www.tellurideassociation.org/TASPTopics.html

I'm not really doing this justice. You do need to have some interest, so if you're at all curious, go over this site with a fine tooth comb!

Unintended Consequences

I started this blog to help young people in reaching their goal of a successful college education. I especially want to help those in high school or perhaps younger, but if the information helps you while you're in college, more power to you.

I have included two posts so far on Who's Running for President. My blog has gotten the most attention because of these posts. At this moment if you search AOL for "who's running for president", my first post on this subject comes up 16th. If you Google "who's running in the next presidential election", that same post is 3rd!
These search results are unintended consequences for this blog, yet I'm fine with more eyeballs seeing For Great Young People.

I know some of you will be 18 or older, so remember to register to vote!

Auburn University Is U.S. News No.88

We spent some time at Barnes & Noble Saturday night and picked up U.S. News & World Report's 2007 Edition of America's Best Colleges. In the directory on page 135 I found the first listed "National University", as U.S. News calls it, is Auburn. U.S. News & World Report ranks Auburn as #88. Most popular majors include business, management, marketing, and related support services, engineering, education, health professions and related clinical sciences and psychology.

In the upper right corner of the cover I found out about a scholarship program I've never heard of before. Maybe it's new to you, too. AXA-Achievement is a program of the AXA Foundation and you can find out more by clicking here.

Cutting Edge Research In Engineering

Research From The College Of Engineering, University of California, Berkeley

I receive a fuller version of this by subscribing through email and you can follow the link at the end of this post to subscribe. Do you know someone interested in Engineering?

Friends of Berkeley Engineering,

In a study published last month in Science Express, mechanical engineering professor Arun Majumdar and colleagues report that they successfully generated electricity directly from heat using organic thermoelectric materials. Although thermoelectric conversion has been studied for about 50 years, researchers have focused on expensive inorganic alloys. Organic-based thermoelectric converters bring the exciting promise of much cheaper ways to capture waste heat from power generation and other activities.

Wouldn't it be nice, for example, if we could cool our computer processors with thermoelectric refrigerators and make them compute faster? In fact, microelectronic companies such as Intel are exploring thermoelectric refrigeration for spot cooling of hot spots on their chips.
Computing is just one possible application. An estimated 90 percent of the world's electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels in an indirect method that wastes huge amounts of heat and fuel. Saving even a fraction of that lost heat could amount to an enormous savings of fuel and reduced carbon dioxide emissions into our atmosphere.

Throughout the College, engineers like Majumdar are thinking in novel ways about our energy problem, a problem so massive that we must approach it as broadly and as globally as possible. Berkeley's new Energy Biosciences Institute, announced last month, truly puts Berkeley on the world map of energy research. But it also attests to the work in transformative technologies that has been going on for quite some time, research in areas such as biofuels; nuclear power and nuclear waste storage; renewable power sources like hydro, thermal, solar and wind; smart buildings; optimal combustion methods; light-emitting diodes and other novel modes of lighting; energy storage and battery disposal solutions.

In these and other areas we have yet to imagine, engineering will have a major role in setting us on a new course of clean, renewable and sustainable energy self-sufficiency. It is indeed an exciting time to be an engineer!

Yale Links

Yale and Harvard are Ivy League. Is one of them for you? To confuse things a little, Yale University has a college within it called Berkeley College.

Berkeley College, eighth in the line of residential colleges to be built, was completed in 1934 with a gift of money from Edward S. Harkness. The college is named in honor of the Reverend George Berkeley (1685-1753), Dean of Derry and later Bishop of Cloyne, who endowed Yale with a gift of land and books in the 18th century. There have been eight Masters of Berkeley College. The first, Charles Seymour, was an advisor to President Woodrow Wilson at Versailles, a Professor of History. The sentences in this paragraph are taken from the Berkeley College website.

In case you're wondering, this is different from the University of California at Berkeley, whose curriculum was modeled after that of Yale and Harvard according to the UC Berkeley website.

Who's Running For President? Part I

This is the first of several posts with links to sites by or about presidential candidates or their interests. Some of you will be old enough to vote in the next presidential election, which is both your right and privilege as a U.S. citizen. In 1980 I was only 17 and couldn't vote for president. Ronald Reagan was running against the incumbent president, Jimmy Carter, and an independent candidate, John Anderson. At that time if I could have voted, I would have voted for John Anderson. I'll bet a lot of people my age can't even remember his name or that Ted Kennedy gave Jimmy Carter a good challenge in the Democratic primaries. And the guy who gave Ronald Reagan a good challenge in the Republican primaries went on to become his Vice-President and then President. Who was that? He's father of our current president and his name is George Herbert Walker Bush. He famously called Ronald Reagan's economic position, based on the Laffer Curve, Voodoo Economics.

I don't know if you'll remember these guys below when you're my age, although I assume you will if one of them actually becomes our next president! The first five links are about Mike Gravel, former Senator from Alaska. The second group is Bill Richardson links. He's the current New Mexico Governor. Click on the title of today's post to see who I think has a better chance between them. Remember to register to vote!

Thinking About Star Trek, Stock, And Science

I just posted about Star Trek and a stock called Candela to my blog for small business owners, BusinessOwnerInvestment.blogspot.com, and that gave me the idea to blog here about Star Trek and science. (If you write often, you'll find that you keep getting ideas that lead to other ideas. Writing expands your creativity, if you let it.)

Plausibility is one reason that science fiction fans find it enjoyable. Maybe we're not there yet, but some of the ideas look like we could actually achieve them. Consider mobile phones. I understand that the original creators of what we usually call cell phones were inspired by the communicators in the original Star Trek series [the one with Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock and Dr. McCoy].

NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, even has Star Trek type science on their site:

http://www.nasa.gov/centers/glenn/research/warp/ideachev.html#alcub

One of the scientifically controversial ideas that is central to Star Trek is the faster than light space travel that they refer to as Warp speed. One man who argues that speeds faster than the speed of light may be possible is Miguel Alcubierre, who proposed the Alcubierre drive, mentioned at the NASA site. Alcubierre was born in Mexico City and achieved his Ph.D at the University of Wales, Cardiff in 1994. Read more at the Answers.com link below or Google Miguel Alcubierre. He worked for the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics for a time, too. That's the other link below.

Public Speaking For Young People

Toastmasters is a great place to practice public speaking.

Today is my Toastmasters day. My club is #4130, Expressions Unlimited, and we meet at Noon in Carlsbad. If you ever visit, be sure to arrive at 11:45 or 11:50 so you can talk with members before the start of the formal meeting. At one hour, we have a short meeting compared to most clubs. Visit Expressions Unlimited's blog at:
http://Expressions-Unlimited.blogspot.com

Oh, almost forgot, if you are under 18, you should definitely call before you visit as membership is restricted to those 18 and over and that means that the subject matter may have to be adjusted once in a while. There are scheduled speakers and just in case they need to alter their content or switch places with another speaker, you give them that opportunity by calling. For the record, MOST Toastmasters speeches and banter are suitable for those under 18.

Each club is different, so be sure to visit more than one. I first visited my friend's pastor's Toastmaster club in my late teens or early twenties and did not realize that each club has it's own style. I was intimidated after two visits and didn't go back for 17 years or so. A business mentor recommended that I go to Expressions Unlimited and I loved it the very first meeting.

You can find out more about Toastmasters by visiting Expressions Unlimited's blog and by clicking on the title of today's post to visit the Toastmasters International site. Toastmasters is all over the world.

I recommend a book called Be Heard Now by Lee Glickstein. He is founder of Speaking Circles, which is another place to learn public speaking. His approach is a little different than Toastmasters and you can receive a free email newsletter on Speaking Mastery by visiting his site:

http://www.speakingcircles.org/
