Picking Your Doctoral Topic
Before I begin spitting the advice, let me introduce myself. I am Dr. Jhoanna Amigable. I am a Doctor of Business Administration with a concentration in Healthcare Administration. I am currently a business analyst in a public healthcare facility and worked full-time (and then some) during my doctoral journey. I'm probably like you - I have a family, friends, a career, pets, etc. etc. and I've been trying to navigate this thing called "adulthood" for quite some time. Balancing anything extra on top of a career and family is far from easy, but it's possible! I have a passion for helping people get through things that might be weighing heavy on their shoulders (like a doctoral dissertation) and leaving a positive effect on people that I encounter. So I hope this helps you in one way or another.

Better Prepared For College Or Work
The U.S. has a terrific opportunity to bring dynamic public schools to its neediest children, but it just might blow it. Called charter schools elsewhere, community schools are independent public schools of choice. That's not an oxymoron. They are new kinds of public schools, freed from most bureaucratic hassles, open to any child who chooses to attend and held to account for their results. We've visited dozens around the nation as a part of a new project. Most of those we've seen are terrific. They come in all flavors: progressive institutions with lots of hands-on learning, back-to-basics schools with stern discipline and old-fashioned curriculum, schools for at-risk kids, even a virtual charter school that operates in cyberspace. The intent was to make our students work harder, take more classes, and naturally the students would be better prepared for college or work.

The Consequences of Following the Crowd, an Essay
When we hear the word “consequences,” we tend to think “negative.” According to Dictionary.com, however, the definition of consequence is “the effect, result, or outcome of something occurring earlier.” This definition illustrates that consequences can be both positive and negative. This holds true with following the crowd – you might lose your sense of self, you might believe dangerously false information, you might even be pulled into a mob intent on killing or otherwise harming others. However, you also have a higher likelihood of getting that amazing job or getting into exclusive clubs. You might even be mistaken as having traits that society deems “positive,” just because you hang around people who have those traits. It’s all about nuance and having the responsibility and common sense to determine which consequences are positive…and which are negative.
