Agree or Disagree

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? If we could unplug all the TV sets in America, our children would grow up to be healthier, better educated, and more independent human beings.

I agree with this statement in ways. I think that if we unplugged all the TV sets with computers, our children would be healthier, better educated, and more independent. I believe that yes if the younger generation of Americans watched less reality TV they would be better educated, and healthier. I believe this because reality TV is not educational and promotes children to act like fools. In my own opinion I do believe that children need to go outside and be social with others their own age. Children are trying to grow up too fast and are missing on their one chance to be a child. I do think that children should be able to watch television but for only a short amount of time. Educational channels go unwatched while Reality TV is most popular in today’s culture. If children watched more educational channels I do not think that it would be so bad, but no one encourages them to watch those shows. Also the same goes with computers if children used computers for educational purposes and not Facebook then they should have a limited time on computers as well.

I think that children would be much more social with children their age. Having no TV would help motivate children to get outside and get some exercise. I do believe that children would be healthier because they wouldn’t have the option of sitting at home all day in front of a TV. They would have to get out and do something with other children to keep occupied.

Attending Wright State University

Attending Wright State University (WSU) was the right choice for me. I choose WSU as my college for many reasons. Among my reasons, the most important one would be being able to still live at home with my family. As I looked around at local colleges, I looked for a college that had a good education program. Many colleges had good programs but not exactly what I wanted to do.  I looked into WSU because it was close by and had a great education program that was exactly what I wanted to do. The Program is to become licensed in Intervention Specialist, Language Arts, and Social Studies, which is the ideal program for me.

 I always knew I wanted to dance in college but I did not know where I wanted to attend college. I went to a Wright State Basketball game during last year’s season, to see Emerald Jazz perform. I saw what the team performed and it looked like fun and something I wanted to do. They were a technical team and had nationals but also cheer at the home basketball games and other events. I tried out this past May and made the team.

 I love my decision to come to Wright State University. I enjoy my classes and love my schedule. I hope that I can schedule my classes similar to how they are now. I think coming to WSU was the best decision for me.
