That is the secret to overcoming those fears that haunt you at the edge of your potential, you have to confront that fear and overcome it for the love of the people who brought you that far.
Homecoming has just as many meanings as there are people reading this. However, the one constant, the one truth it carries is that it is a time when people evaluate who they are, where they are going, and for our alumni, how far they have come.
I want Homecoming to stand for hope and conquering fear and standing on that edgy precipice of our potential, peering out into the wide expanse of opportunity and deciding to pursue our dreams....
Not carrying the baggage of fear, of doubt, of pettiness, but instead throwing off all that and soaring to what we can all become. Life is about challenging yourself every day.

"If I'd have heard that, I'd have jumped down somebody's throat," Barnett says. "Not one time did I ever see or hear about anybody treating her wrong. I don't believe she was sexually harassed. I don't believe our players would do that. They'd be in
Mourning Becomes Electra It must have come as something of a shock for the original audience of Eugene O'Neill's Mourning Becomes Electra in 1931 to take their seats, open their programs, and discover that this extremely lengthy trilogy of plays does not actually contain a character named "Electra." This may seem like an obvious point, but it is one worth considering as we approach O'Neill's American analogue to the Oresteia of
Abstract Here is presented a descriptive essay on autumn. It describes the essence of the season, what makes it unique and so different from the other three. It tells why it is the season of poets, the season of prayer, and the season of Thanksgiving. Autumn represents the harvest—not just of the fruit of the fields but also of life itself. Autumn is the time in which man turns his mind
