Butler Resources
Some of the things that Brook needs to change is his partying and study habits. Partying could be a big part of college, but in reality you need to realize the real reason why your here, to learn and get an education. Parties can be acceptable, but when they become your life prioritze need to change. Brook first off needs to limit his partying to maybe to weekends or not at all until he can raise his grades. Brook also needs to find some help on campus, whether is tutoring or counseling to help some of his problems. Brook also needs to realize he won't ever be like his roomate the worst thing to do is wish to be like someone. He has his own talents and they won't be the same as his roomates. Some of the resources I know are available at Butler is the tutoring lab upstairs in the 600 building. This lab is open through most of the day and there is a regular tutor to help you in all subjects in school. There is also counseling on campus if Brook needed to talk about his drinking habits and maybe the issues he has with his parents. There are also many places around the area that he could go to, to have quality studying time to himself. The library in the 600 building for instance on campus. He could also turn to older educated people that they trust to help him with his issues.
Community Service
I think hunger around the world is a large issue that needs to be solved. I think this issue is trying to be solved and people are constantly working to get a solution. One way to address this issue of hunger is the poverty level. Most of the people who have gone hungry are in the poverty stage. They don't have the money to by food or let alone have land to grow their food. So the first step to solving hunger is to get the poverty issue under control. Another way to help the issue of hunger is to get more people involved and they need to know more about the issue of hunger and how to help out themselves. The more fortunate people in the world may not be educated enough to know how big of issue this really is. I think it would be good to get more people educated and to learn more about this so they would be willing to try to make a difference in helping this matter. Another way to solve this issue is to start organizations of large groups of people to help donate food and other things to help these people out. When you have a group of large amounts the word will spread and more people will want to contribute to the wellbeing of the less fortunate. What I can do about this issue on a local level, I could possibly start a car wash, or bake sale, or something along that line to raise money. The money that is raised from something like this could be giving to a larger well known organization that will give it to the people who need the help.
Time Management
Time management is an important thing that goes along with college. You have to know how to manage you time wisely to succeed with the everyday stress of college. You have to set goals for yourself to make time management easier and more successful for you. The way I feel when I manage my time unwisely is overwhealmed. I start to get stressed and then I tend to worry. My mind is always concentrating on things I need to get done instead of me being relaxed and calm. The way I feel when I have managed my time well is relaxing. I no longer have to worry about getting something done before the deadline because it has already been done. I set reasonable deadlines for myself that way I get what I need done. The time I managed in high school is way different from now. In highschool I always had class time to rely on to get things done and teachers set out everything that was suppose to be done and told us when it was to be done. I have seen progress. I struggled when school started and it was different adapting to the new lifestyle of college rather than high school. I feel that I am slowly maturing in my judgement I am starting to realize the importance rather than thinking I am good enough to get things done at the drop of a hat.
